Green Card, Removal of Conditions

My wife and I retained Tidwell Swaim and Associates to handle my Green Card application and the subsequent Removal of Conditions. David and his team simplified the mountain of paperwork and provided us the peace of mind during the long processes. Erica Gomez responded quickly to all our questions and... Jeff Quilhot's presence at the interview made it far less intimidating.

Green Card Received

It has been my pleasure to work with my immigration lawyer Mr. J. David Swaim and his senior paralegal Mrs. Kathryn Vanderland Rice on my green card application. The way they handled my case is very professional, and we have kept good and efficient communications with each other through the whole app...lication process. I really appreciate all they've done for me, and would love to recommend this Law Firm to others who need immigration assistance.

Lawful permanent resident (LPR) process successfully completed

Hello, I hired The Law Firm of Tidwell, Swaim & Associates to obtain Lawful permanent resident (LPR) status for my wife and I; we both got it in approximately 18 months. In our case, we went from H1-b and H-4 visas to LPR so the 18 months was a very good time frame for us. The lawyers showed that the...y are very capable and know this process very well as was evident during special circumstances throughout our case, for instance, my wife and I traveled often between the U.S. and Mexico so the lawyers were always in contact with us to make sure we were in the U.S. whenever we submitted documents to the Government. An interesting maneuver by the lawyers occurred towards the second half of our process, as they decided to submit the I-140 and Adjustment of Status forms in parallel with the intent to speed up the process, in my opinion it did. At the very least it made me feel that the lawyers are doing everything to complete the process as soon as possible. Overall, the staff was very friendly and always answered our emails promptly, no matter what type of questions we would ask. I strongly recommend The Law Firm of Tidwell, Swaim & Associates for immigration services.

OPT

I was so confused and frustrated after having received denial of my son's OPT. It was denied because it was received by uscis late. Apparently, the MTR was so easy to be filed but in reality it was not that easy but tricky. This was solved by Mr. J Swaim whom I met with via AVVO forum. He was so quic...k in his response on forum and thereafter when I contacted him via emails. His concerns on this subject was understsandable that I cannot overlook the main component that not all attorneys plead the case rightly especially related to OPT. I had no second thought but to hire Mr. Swaim to represent my son's MTR. When I read the appeal prepared by him, then and that I concluded that uscis will have no other way but to accept it. We are praying for its success. I'll rate him and his law firm 10 out of 10 and will recommend everyone to hire his law firm for any of their legal cases. Thanks

Best Lawyer and Law firm in Texas

I had a very difficult case when I approached Mr. Swaim in 2014. I was arrested at the airport on arrival to the United States and in a situation where I had lost my green card and custody of my child. I was under deportation process. He delivered exactly what he promised me the day I first met him. ... It's been 3 years now and my case has been dismissed by the court and I have received my green card. My husband and I had complete trust in his ability as he is a well experienced attorney with the right strategy and attitude. He and his team put their heart and soul in my case and literally fought to bring my rights back to me. Mr. David personally appeared on time to each and every single court hearing, which I sincerely appreciate. Erica was prompt in keeping up with my case and following up on my documentations and Kathy was always courteous, kind and prompt in communicating during the absence of the attorneys. Overall awesome service and job well done. I am extremely thankful to Mr. David and his team for all their efforts for bringing me closer to my American born children. I highly recommend Tidwell Swaim and Associates as I believe that Mr. David can resolve the most difficult case.
