Permanent residency

I retained Mr Omar to help with my green card application, he was attentive, professional, highly learned, and replies even during after hours about any questions i have. I highly recommend his services!

Great Immigration Attorney

Mr Abuzir is a great attorney. He helped me get my permanent resident status, even though my case was not an easy one. It took us three interviews and numerous follow ups and inquiries over the course of six years. He even came from Illinois all the way to Texas ( where I moved in the meantime) to b...e next to me at my last interview. If you need a great immigration attorney, Mr. Abuzir is your guy!

A great lawyer

After 5 years pending asylum case with bad luck with two lawyers before , Mr. Abuzir came to end this pain era by suing the asylum office and we granted asylum. Why Mr. Omar? 1- unlike the other lawyers, he answers his phone, email immediately for every question I had. 2- very brave attorney in the c...ourt and in the asylum office so that he pays attention for every single details. 3- affordable price comparing with the other lawyers. Thank you for saving a Syrian family life.

Excellent, Experienced and Trusted Attorney!

Attorney Omar is your go to person for all your immigration needs. After many unsuccessful trials with other attorneys, My Family was referred to Attorney Omar and we have absolutely no regrets . He is very knowledgeable in his field, detailed oriented and works in a timely manner. Attorney Omar has ...many clients, but makes time to address our questions and concerns. He returns phone calls and email very fast and he even makes time for clients on weekends. My Dads case was a bit difficult and we didn't hear any favorable response from other attorneys. Attorney Omar on the other hand encouraged us to push through and reassured us that everything will be fine. He gathered substantial amount of concrete evidence for the case that even the interview officer was impressed with how much evidence provided. My Case on the other hand didn't require any interview and we receive approval in the mail in no time. My siblings case was very smooth and fast as well. Many Attorney care about your money, attorney Omar on the other hand cares about the positive outcome of your case and keeping your families together. If you are looking for an Excellent, trusted, reliable, caring Attorney who will go above and beyond for you, look no further, Attorney Omar is your guy. I would recommend him a 1000 times and over. Make the call today!!!! you will not regret it!

Wonderful Attorney

Omar Abuzir did more than a wonderful job! He was kind, carrying, involved, informative, and very knowledgeable. Omar was straight to the point, a straight arrow. Before hiring him for his services, He explained exactly what he was going to do, at no point during our process was I ever wondering "wha...t if", or "How is my case doing?'. At any point that I had any questions, I would call leave a voice mail or email, and he would always get back to me the day of or the next day. Our process took some time. But like I said before he always kept my family and I informed. I am very thankful for his services. I most definitely recommend him! Thank you again Omar!
