Best Lawyer you could hope for

it was a friend who recommended Omar Abuzir for my Adjustment of status through marriage,I will never forget his advice I was new to US and lost and my husband was just permanent resident not a citizen.and I called and I asked him is it worth it to do the application even my husband is not citizen ye...t or I should apply and be on process.It was best advice ever..he told me if there is a law created for such cases like you to apply for green card even though spouse is not a citizen ,why don't you take advantage of it,so I trusted his advice and we filled the case.it was best decision ever. at every step he was just accurate and helpful,he told me you will receive EAD card with 60-70 days it did happen exactly. when we were at the interview i was freaking out he was calming us down and so confident and helped us or corrected some sentences if we needed with USCIS officer.we got approved and I got green card within 10 days after interview,I cant thank him enough,he is has huge knowledge in Immigration cases.besides he is not a money guy,his prices are reasonable.

Best attorney I could have wished for!

I am so grateful to have had Omar Abuzir as our attorney in our immigration case. He is is very experienced and on top with immigration laws and procedures and truly cares about each of his clients. He would even call me after hours twice when I felt distressed about something to give me peace of min...d. Our case was on the complicated side and thanks to him everything turned out well. Everyone in his office is very polite and helpful as well. I highly recommend him and especially to anyone who has a more complex situation.
