I had a great experience working with Young and her team. I worked with them on my marriage-based green card and cannot thank them enough for their constant help and support throughout the process. They are very responsive, knowledgeable, and professional and made the entire process so smooth and stress-free. I'm so glad I hired Young as my lawyer and would highly recommend her to my friends and family!
