Challenging Case Ends Well

I had a difficult fact situation involving a foreign marriage and a foreign divorce that (the divorce) was not initially recognized by USCIS, and that had a very bad effect on the sponsorship case of my current wife. Attorney Yoo was able to research the laws of the countries where the previous mar...riage and divorce were done, retain local attorneys for formal opinion letters, and submit briefs and evidence to convince the USCIS of the legality of these previous circumstances. I had almost given up hope before I hired Attorney Yoo, but she came through for me.
