Awesome Immigration Attorney

Being from the UK people presume that the Immigration process is easy and straightforward but it is not. Have been working on my daughter's Green Card for almost 9 years. Tried to work with other Attorneys who advertise themselves as Immigration Attorney's but totally fell short including the last ...one who gave me totally the wrong information and told me we would still have a long wait. That was at the end of 2015. Something told me that I should get a second opinion so I contacted Sharma-Crawford. Oh what a big difference. Professional, helpful and just totally awesome is the only way I can describe them. From the moment you contact them they work with you on everything. When you go to their office the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They kept in constant contact with me and Michael was excellent. Michael filed my daughter's application and went to the interview with us. We left the Immigration Office with huge smiles on our faces and we couldn't have done it without Michael and his team. If you are looking for an Immigration Attorney, look no further as you have found the best.

Best Immigration Attorney - Highly Recommended!

I highly recommend Michael Shama-Crawford to anyone seeking an honest straightforward and affordable immigration attorney. Our story is too long to go into great detail. But I will give you the shorten version. My husband and I have been married for almost 18 years now and we applied for his green... card in 1999. After many inquiries and a lot of money spent on 4 different attorneys’ in Illinois over the years, with still no decision made, it was very frustrating. During this time, my husband had gotten DUI’s on his record, but also went into recovery, so we thought all was good. We checked with the Chicago immigration office in March to inquire the status of our application and we were told that our “application was still pending”. A little over 2 months later, our house was surrounded by ICE agents who took my husband into custody for “overstaying his visa” and held him for deportation processing without bond in a Missouri jail for 31 days! I was so stressed and didn’t know what was happening or where to turn. I contacted Michael Sharma-Crawford, who immediately responded to my cries for help. He walked me through what was happening and what was needed from me, in the form of paperwork, etc. Michael was able to get a bond hearing quickly within a month and was able to get my husband released from jail. A few months later, Michael represented my husband at his trial and was able to get him his long awaited green card! The best thing about Michael Sharma-Crawford as an attorney is that he doesn’t give you false hope or make promises that he can’t keep. He simply tries his hardest to get the best outcome of whatever situation is presented to him. That’s all anyone can ask. Can he work miracles? In my opinion… YES! All I know is that we could not have accomplished any of this without him. What had taken us over 16 years of waiting for, Michael accomplished in 6 months! He is an amazing, caring attorney. We are forever grateful for his guidance, expertise, time and effort he put into our case.

Helpful and Kind

I went to this firm and they helped me when no one else would. They went to work right away. They worked hard for me and helped me. I went to other attorneys and they would all start with "it will cost you X". Michael started with "how do we help you". Kindest folks ever.
