Green card & Naturalization Attorney

I have known Steven for over twenty years. Not only does he have very detailed incisive knowledge of the law and regulations, he is very knowledgeable about the current practices and preferences of the adjudicating officers of the St Paul Field Office. Steven and his paralegal Jonathan were very help...ful during my naturalization and my wife's immigration process. Could not have asked for a better attorney. The calm demeanor is reflective of a quiet confidence and effectiveness. Certainly the best attorney in the upper midwest!!!

My Husband and I are together today because Mr. Thal presented our case to USCIS

Mr. Thal is an honest, kind, genuine, and knowledgeable attorney in the immigration law. I was fortunate to find him to file for my husband’s immigration process. My situation was not a simple case of an U.S Citizen filing for his/her spouse for spousal visa rather it was a complicated case. Mr. T...hal and his assistant Rosie were very honest and clear with me about the situation and difficulties that could arise during the processing. They spent so much time and energy to make sure each and every document was complete without any flaw. They took extra care due to the nature of my case. My husband and I worked with this team for two years. My husband and I are together because we had Mr. Thal presenting our case with his expertise in immigration law. Rosie was always prompt in her response to any query we had through out this period. She took time to make sure my husband was ready for his interview by using emails, phone calls, Skype etc. She came to meet with me over the weekend to accommodate my working hours. This team becomes part of your life during the time you are with them. They treat you with respect, care, and love. I would like to say that serving their client to their best is their goal and they thrive on reaching their goals.

Successful Green Card!

Steve and his team did an awesome job finding a solution for a colleague of mine looking for immigration help. Steve was always responsive. He was calculated yet willing to think outside the box at times. Our unique case required some creative thinking and Steve knew immigration law to the point w...here a non-traditional path turned out to be the best option for us. We accomplished our goal: my colleague obtained her Green Card! I would certainly recommend Steve for anyone looking to tackle immigration solutions. He and his staff are professional and efficient. Our case was not easy, and it took a fair amount of thinking to arrive at our solution. But Steve and his team were there the entire way and, ultimately, helped us all achieve our goal.

Definitely someone we'd work with again!

Steve and his staff were terrific to work with. Even though we live in South Dakota and didn't actually meet face to face until the very end of the process, everything went very smoothly. For us the adoption process and all requirements of the USCIS were very intimidating. Steve and his staff work...ed closely with us to work thru the paperwork, the filing process, and then the final in person interview with the USCIS office. Steve's team was extremely timely in their responses whenever we had questions. We would definitely recommend them for others who need to work through the immigration process. Thanks again to Steve and his team.
