My GC journey

Although I have only taken telephonic consultations with Ms. Badmus, I say that she is a very competent and responsive. I was in distress twice during my Green Card journey. Once, when I had to justify my spouse and children lawful stay in the states and my regular attorney was not very comfortable r...eplying to the RFE. Ms. Badmus drafted an appropriate response and my lawyer was open enough to incorporate Ann Badmus's draft, in the response. The second time I was in doubt if I need to apply for the J supplement (AC 21) and could not find an appropriate answer anywhere, my own attorney being unaware of this, since mine was a self petition EB1A. The answer was clearly found only on Ann Badmus web site. Someone who is so through and good has to be an exceptionally talented and qualified individual. She is highly recommended for all immigration needs and I can say with confidence that your expectations would be met to perfection.

Ann Massey Badmus - Review

Attorney Badmus and her team are unbelievably are professional, knowledgeable, thorough and comprehensive when it comes to immigration matters. They guided me through the nuances of my case and gave me sound advice at every junction of the process. The team is friendly yet professional and alway...s courteous. Response to queries are always timely as well. For a process that can be quite stressful at times I always felt confident that the team was right there with me. I especially appreciated the fact that the team is methodical and factual with their explanations, ensuring that I understood all matters related to my case. I would certainly recommend Attorney Badmus and her team!

Excellent Team !!

Thanks to attorney Ann Badmus and her team, I really appreciate Ann for helping me out in getting O1 visa when my J1 waiver got rejected. She suggested me to file EB1 after the approval of O1. Due to her hard work my EB1 got approved even before J1 waiver approval. Her team had been always very promp...t in answering any questions. They always gave their honest opinion. They are very knowledgable and up to date with current immigration laws. They have very good protocols in place. They guide at each step. And above all they are very approachable and easy to work with. Now I got my green card!! Thanks to Ann and Celsa.
