Asses into Canada

I worked with Immigration Law of Montana to get access into Canada; I was unable to vacation into Canada because of a past legal conviction. I explained my situation to Chris and he was very helpful and honest about what he could do for me. We decided to go through the process to get criminal reha...bilitated. It was a long and complicated process with all the traveling and states that I have lived in, but the system that Chris uses to communicate and check off where we were in the process was great. His assistant, Rockwell, was very fast to answer any questions I had. I got approved and now can vacation into Canada. I would recommend and use Chris and his team again. It was totally worth it.

Made the process very easy

We hired Chris to help us with the green card process after we were married. He informed us about all of the steps and guided us every step of the way. It made every step painless and mistake free. I have and will recommend him in the future.

Super Experienced, Super Helpful, and Super Professional!

My husband and I first dealt with Christopher while we were still living in the UK. He promptly set up a video chat with us and was extremely helpful and knowledgeable during our consultation so we could decide on a residency path to take. He was very patient during it despite our two wee children be...ing present (and very distracting). Christopher gave us excellent advice and we were later able to move forward with my husband’s residency application in the US, even discounting the price we spent on the earlier consultation from our application fee. We shopped around a lot at our other options in MT first and found there was no other firm that was as experienced with this sort of thing. One competing attorney in particular tried to make the whole process more complicated rather than easier to understand, we really got the impression he had only done the immigration process once or twice before! We dealt largely with Christopher’s staff from that point on, who were ALWAYS available to us (very appreciated during these potentially stressful situation) as well as being ALWAYS helpful and professional. The process of getting my husband naturalized went as smoothly as Christopher had told us to expect, and they were also EXACTLY on the money with how long the whole process would take which we really appreciated. I especially appreciated the final conversation we had with him before our big interview, he talked about what we could expect during and it REALLY calmed my nerves (and was 100% accurate!). This whole immigration process has the potential to be extremely stressful and have seriously life-changing ramifications if something goes wrong; we were SO GRATEFUL we went with Immigration Law of MT. Normally I am a cheap person and don’t like to pay professionals to do things I may be able to do myself, but in the case of immigration the stakes are just too high. We have had other experiences trying to do residency applications ourselves and despite both my husband and I being college educated, there are so many small details and hoops to jump through that it did not go well at all, which is why we decided to use a professional this time around and we’re so glad we did. Thanks to ALL Christopher’s staff, they really worked together as a team (especially the amazing Collette who held our hand through the whole procedure!!) and we would recommend them to ANYONE and EVERYONE. They dealt very professionally and appropriately with our sponsors/family members and kept everyone’s details private which was really important to us. I’m so very happy we went with them honestly, and this life-altering process is finally over! THANK YOU!

Immigration Law of Montana

After consulting 3 immigration lawyers and without any success, we found Immigration Law of Montana on the internet and decided to make an appointment with Christopher Flann to consult him, this was the best decision we could have made, he gave us his point of view and the solution to change our immi...gration situation. Definitely he knows what he does, his knowledge and professionalism were reflected when presenting our case. Once the case was presented, we obtained the approval of our change of status in 4 days. Working with him and his assistant Collette is a pleasure and I am sure that in the future I will continue to do so. By far, the best immigration lawyer I know. I have no doubt in widely recommend, do not waste your time or your money elsewhere, if you are looking for an immigration lawyer, for me this is the best option. Du-Pond LLC

Green card

Chris and his team at Immigration Law of Montana recently assisted us in obtaining our green cards. The entire process felt so easy because of all the hard work of Chris and his team. They were constantly checking up on new requirements and the progress of our application, and we received our green c...ards much faster than expected. I give Chris and his team at Immigration Law of Montana my highest recommendations, and would advise anyone needing legal assistance in their immigration process to contact Chris!
