Indrani Purkayastha McCreary

Indrani was my immigration lawyer. She helped me get my green card thru employment (she helped me get an H-1B visa (work visa) first, then helped me change my status to permanent resident and get my green card). I studied and graduated in the US. I opted for an F-1 Optional Practical Training visa... (OPT) that only granted me one year of work after graduating. I found a job and wanted to stay in the US, so in my search for an immigration lawyer, I was referred to Indrani by a friend. From the moment I first scheduled a consultation with her, she was very reassuring and knowledgeable about the entire process. She was very easy to work with, and always had an answer for any question or concerns. She explained in detail (and in an easy way to understand) how the process worked, what was required, how long or fast it would take, and all of the possible outcomes, and how to overcome it. She also worked with my employer and explained to them what they needed to do in order for me to get my green card. There were some complications towards the end due to my employer having a tough business year, but Indrani was able to review everything and put together a great strategy that worked for both my employer and myself to keep the process moving. She was always on top of my case, always checking up on me, and always looking up for mine and my employer's best interests. She was also always available any time I needed her, or at the very least, she would let me know in advance when she wasn't going to be available, but always had a backup or another fellow attorney available for me to contact in case I needed anything. Also, everyone in the office where she works, Graves & Graves, were very helpful and very friendly. I had a lot of simple questions that I am sure they get asked all the time everyday, but they were always treating me like I was the first person to ask them, and were very patient, calm, professional, reassuring, and polite. Even when I had to go to their office, everyone treated me like family, asked if I needed anything, and were always making sure I felt comfortable. Like the title, I could not have asked for a better lawyer. I definitely recommend her to anyone, she and her coworkers will work miracles for you!
