Calm, knowledgeable, and patient immigration lawyer with great integrity

I am a client and the husband of a client. I am also a lawyer in private practice with over 30 years of trial experience, so I can review her work with a high degree of knowledge. My girlfriend had immigrated to the U.S. before I met her. Yi Sun was her lawyer. She had developed a high level of regar...d for Yi Sun and had recommended her to several friends. When we got married, I became my wife's sponsor for permanent residency and a Yi Sun client as well. I found Yi Sun to be an excellent attorney. She was calm and patient and clearly very knowledgeable about the process. She let us know what to expect and helped us make the best possible presentation of our application. She was easily available by phone when we had questions. Her fees were very reasonable for the amount of personal attention she gave us. I found her to be a person of high integrity as well. I recommend Yi Sun without reservation because of her intelligence, diligence, and integrity.

Expert in Knowledge

Yi Sun help my wife Judy and I in a immigration case in 2014 through 2016.What we like most about Yi Sun is the way she delivered a clear understanding of what to expect and what was expected of Judy and I .Her knowledge of immigration law and honesty made us feel very comfortable in our case. We... also had a great deal of trust that developed over the years working with Yi Sun. Judy and I both feel we had Service of Excellence.

She was very helpful. I would totally recommend her to my friends.

Yi Sun helped my green card process. I was very nervous since I never experienced the government process in the US. When my husband and I visited her, she calmed me down and gave me good advice. She told me all details of the document that we have to prepare. She also gave me tips that only the l...awyer would know, such as people's common mistake during the interview and etc. I know once the procedure is over, it doesn't seem a big deal at all. But the entire procedure is overwhelming for a new immigrant who also tries to settle down in a complete different country. That is why we need a lawyer, right? Yi Sun will make you feel comfortable and give you confidence by her knowledge. She was very helpful. I would totally recommend her to my friends.

Yi Sun took care of my mother citizenship process and is taking care of my green card process as well. She explained all the steps and always has an extra time to make sure that we understood everything about the process. She is very professional and friendly at the same time. She's always ready to a...nswer our questions and concerns. For sure i highly recommend her.

Highly Recommended

Our business was struggling with a permanent alien labor certification case through another attorney for several years. We took the case to Yi 8 year ago. She was able to walk us through the process quickly and successfully filed for the employee. Since then, she has helped us with many cases. She is... very detailed and experienced. She followed and guided us through each step carefully in each case she handled. She also explains the legal issues in a manner that we can understand, so we can take action and make decisions accordingly.
