very pleased

Richard Hanus was the first immigration lawyer that I have met and whose services I retained. He was highly recommended by a former client. I'm very glad that he was able to help me obtain my H1-B visa in the quickest way possible. During the course of the petition process, he kept me updated and was... always available for questions even when I was in another country. He answered my queries in a manner that was very professional, honest and direct. When my visa was approved, he sent me all the necessary materials and step-by-step instructions that made my interview a breeze. His office personnel was also pleasant and accommodating. The fee was reasonable which is definitely a plus. Today, my husband and I are both here in the US because of Mr. Hanus. Overall, good quality service, I would say. Thank you, Richard.

Principal CF Gear Holdings LLC

We have hired Richard Hanus on numerous occasions to help us obtain H1B permits for our employees. In all cases, he / his firm has always delivered the results in an efficient manner. Throughout the process they would be in constant communication, managing our expectations and the flow-through of inf...ormation correctly. Personally, we used Richard for our green card application as well. He was able to help us understand exactly what method to use, and all necessary filings were completed in a timely manner as long as we were able to deliver the documents required. I would definitely recommend Richard as he has always come through for us.

very poor handling of case

Mr. Hanus handled my father's case for his eb-2 employment visa. inconsistencies in the paper work for the application were cited by the USCIS for the denial of the I-140. These inconsistencies, mind you, could have easily been corrected before finalizing any submissions. very disappointing that thes...e little corrections should have been rectified before making any submissions in haste. It makes me wonder if Mr. Hanus even reviews these paper work before submitting them or he just lets his paralegal do all the work. Considering that the error was made on his part, Mr Hanus even wants to charge my father an exhorbitantly high legal fee for the appeal. Whats worse, when I brought up this issue with him, he threatened to drop my father's case at a very crticial time in his appeal proceess. Very unethical.. and I would not recommend to anyone

I had a very good experience with Mr. Hanus

My wife and I had a new born daughter last May. Since both of us work full time, we had her mom come from China to help us with the baby. We applied for visa extension for my mother-in-law when her visa got close to be expired but, for some strange reason, her application was denied and she was asked... to leave the country immediately. In desperation, we were looking for an immigration lawyer for help. Mr. Hanus was recommended by one of friends. We visited Mr. Hanus at her Chicago office around middle December, 2010. Within 5 minutes, we walked out of his office with happy faces and confidence. He told us that there is no need to worry about the rejection letter to my mother-in-law's visa extension and she should get her green card as early as April, 2011. We just received the green card on April 6th. What I was impressed the most by Mr. Hanus is his no-nonsense style and very efficient professional work. You send him an email for help he would return your email within 5 minutes! You do not find this kind of professionals easily nowadays. I would highly recommend Mr. Hanus for all my friends who need a trustworthy and efficient immigration lawyer.

Mr. Richard is great, knowledgeable and trustful lawyer..

He worked really hard in my case. He put all of his effort in my case to have the positive outcome. My I-539 got denied two times, but he made it approved in the third time.
