Professional and excellent services!

I'm so lucky, and grateful that I found lawyer Yan by accident! Me and my husband have been married for so many years, and I'm looking forward to get my green card done. Even though our case is not complicated at all, somehow our previous lawyer( from a very big and very well known firm) still sc...rewed us up very badly (eg. not filing the right paperwork, forgot sending the check, never keep us informed, over charging....) After wasting months and months with the previous lawyer, we finally decided to change a firm. Just by driving around Chinatown, I accidentally found Lawyer Yan's firm. After few minutes talking to her assistant Lisa, I immediately realized how professional they are! Without any delay, we transferred the case over. Lawyer Yan and Lisa both sat down with me and my husband , went through the paperworks we supposed to file, and the documents we supposed to provide. They checked all the papers and documents page by page to make sure all the informations were filled correctly. Lawyer Yan and Lisa's efficiency and professionalism were just amazing, within a week, our case was refiled without any mistakes! After that, all I did was just to wait. Throughout the waiting, Lisa has been extremely helpful as well. She always, always kept me informed, from finger printing, EAD card to medical check and interview, guided me what to expect and what to prepare during each stage. Before the green card interview, Lawyer Yan briefed us through phone as well(cause we were both out of town) to make sure we were well prepared for the interview. Thanks for Lawyer Yan and her team, I got my very first green card! And, what makes it better is, it's a ten years green card! So yes, if you are looking for an immigration lawyer who is professional and excellent in what she does, you definitely have the right person here------Lawyer Yan!

Professional, Quality, Fast Response, Responsible, Knowledgeable

Yan Ni is a great attorney. We have been using Ni for many years for immigration and miscellaneous legal consults. Dealing with immigration case could be stressful but she always knows the answer to our numerous questions from simple to complicated and handles it in a professional way. I easily forge...t things but she keeps reminding me when there is timeline approaching so I know she is a very responsible person we can count on. The cases handled by her have extremely high successful rate. I am so glad to find her and highly recommend her services to others.

A True Professional Specializing in Chinese Immigration

My wife and stepson are from China and we wanted an immigration attorney that could help both of us go through the immigration process. We found Ni Yan and never looked back. She was personable, knowledgable and thorough. Our process went smooth with no bumps. My wife has been awarded a green car...d and we couldn't be happier. Thanks again, Ms. Yan!

A reliable professional lawyer, who is kind and helpful!

I retained Yan Ni and her team to help my mother to acquire her US citizenship. We were dreading the bureaucratic process, but Yan Ni and her staff were so professional and efficient. They made the application procedure very smoothly. She has extensive experience and thorough understanding of the e...ntire immigration process. From your first conversation with Yan Ni, you immediately become aware of her integrity and commitment, and moreover, the passion she exudes for her work. Any concern I raised was immediately addressed. Phone calls were answered in a timely manner. Her staff is always courteous and attentive, making me feel that my case was the top priority. She is also well-versed in U.S. immigration policy, and keeps up with the latest trends in immigration law. Twice a month, Ni Yan appears on a local popular radio talk show addressing immigration issues and answering listeners’ questions. I felt very lucky to have someone like Yan Ni to help me.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
