Would hire her all over again, absolutely phenomenal

What started as an almost fantasy, getting a green card for my foreign wife, has become reality thanks to Young Ah Ri. From initial consultation to getting a green card in the mail, Young was an absolutely invaluable part of our team. Her costs were extremely reasonable. For the amount of wor...k and hours she put into our case, I'm honestly surprised we didn't pay more. And honestly we would have gladly paid more. From start to finish, getting a green card is a Lot of paperwork and hassle. We read through some of the forms that needed to be filled out, and for some parts we honestly weren't sure what to put in. If we were to do all the forms ourselves, I know for a fact we would have made many mistakes, possibly jeopardizing our whole green card case. When we hired Young, we got peace of mind that each i was dotted and every t was crossed properly. For something as important as a green card, we wanted someone who had been in the trenches and who knew how to do each step properly. Young was always very warm and personal when we spoke with her. While you could tell she was a fiercely strong lawyer, she also had a lot of compassion for us and made us feel like things were going to be okay. She wasn't fake-nice or robotic like you might get when hiring some professionals. She was both very competent and caring. The only thing that worried us about Young is actually a positive for her clients. We would email her and 5-10 minutes later we would get back a detailed response, whatever day of the week! She charged extra for her to be with us during the final immigration interview. This also included a 'mock interview' at her office that was invaluable for preparing us for the types of questions the immigration interviewer might ask. We would highly recommend also having Young come with you to the interview. Overall, my review is very glowing of Young and her services. This review is not paid for, I've not been coached to write any of this. In fact, I almost never write reviews online but Young really was outstanding in getting us our green card. Whatever reasonable rate she charged us was worth ten-fold for the ease of mind that came from having our forms filled properly, knowing what to expect, and holding our hand at each part of the process. We would hire her all over again, and will recommend her to anyone needing an immigration lawyer.

Highly recommended!

I had been advised that US Immigration law is quite complicated and as a result I would want to trust my application only to an attorney that specializes in this area of the law. I found such an attorney at the Law Offices of Young Ri. As a scientist working in a very specialized area of research, I ...have been employed during the past three years on an H1B Visa. The positive response to my research subject encouraged me to seek permanent residence status in the USA so that I could further develop my research here. However, having only been in the US for 3 years, I needed an highly qualified attorney familiar with specific requirements for a NIW application. Ms. Ri is a professional, compassionate and hardworking lawyer who understands science as well as law. She explained the stringent requirements of this permit and the process necessary to prepare and file a compelling case. Ms. Ri immersed herself in my past publications and presentations before she would evaluate my case. She advised me and then filed my case after concluding that I met the requirements of the NIW. Her thorough, realistic and proactive attitude throughout the case was remarkable. Ms. Ri is also very responsive to the emotional side of a difficult immigration process. She remained in touch with me throughout the process and always communicated with me herself, not through her secretary. Although I would like to think that my case was special, I believe that Ms. Ri handles each of her cases with this same degree of dedication and commitment. I was very excited the evening that she called to inform me that my case had been approved. Following the approval, it took only 3 weeks to receive my green card. I highly recommend the law offices of Young Ri.

Five stars!

Being a US Citizen I never believed I would ever need the services of an Attorney specializing in US Immigration and Nationality Law... to help me understand taking someone I love through the process to obtain a Green Card and navigate the road necessary to becoming a US Citizen. My wife and I are fo...rtunate to have located Attorney Young RI. My first impression of Attorney Ri was that she demonstrated being able to share the process and all involved so my wife and I not only came to realize this Attorney was very familiar with needed next steps once she understood our situation but "we" clearly understood next steps because of how the process was delivered to us by Attorney Ri. Added I have to mention this first impression also immediately included she was a Professional... almost cold... but once my wife and Attorney Ri started working through the process post us hiring her we discovered a warm hearted person which "wanted" successful results... for us. Working with Attorney RI each time built trust. We received our letter from Homeland Security congratulating my wife with becoming a permanent resident of the US, her Green Card and have Attorney Young Ri to thank for her expertise and guidance. As long as Attorney Young Ri is available we will always seek her services first. Five stars! Sincerely, Ermie and Steve R.

Helpful, easy to work with, knowledgeable

Young Ri is not only a very knowledgeable attorney but she is also very personable and easy to talk to. She handled my wife's case for permanent residency status. The process was very smooth and I must credit Young Ri and her work preparing the paperwork and the direction she gave us in how to handle... everything. She also quickly responds to questions and emails, which is so helpful. She assisted us in preparing for the interview and represented us in the interview itself. I would highly recommend Young Ri for anyone going through the immigration process.

Great legal professional.

I am extremely thankful to Young Ah Ri for working on my mother and mine cases. We were welcomed and taken care of. Extremely high professionalism, punctuality and concern for our future. She made clear form the start about all options and possibilities how cases can go and what can be done. Her cons...ultations, knowledge and attention to details made us worry free and ready for necessary interviews, which made our experience just so much easier! Thank you so so much!!!
