Well, my family member really screwed up by stating she feared going back to her country upon being denied entry into the US at the Houston airport. Now, she was to be detained for an undetermined period of time and get on a list to see an asylum judge. Mrs. Alikaj-Cano fixed all this. Our famil...y reacted immediately by contacting the family immigration attorney of choice, but nothing happened. Our attorney was asking me for any updates. We were scared. We tried two other attorneys and all said the situation was basically hopeless and we'd have to wait it out - with a member of our family detained in a place full of undesirable people - horrible. Out of chance, an acquaintance of ours insisted that we HAD to at least go talk to Olsa. So we did and she basically had us at Hello. While sitting in her office we watched as she used her cell phone and found out more information than we had been able to retrieve during the past week with three other attorneys. She didn't sugar-coat anything. She told us what to expect and promised to get my family member out of there as soon as possible. The very next day she went to the detention center and was able to establish the specifics of the case. During the next days I watched the flurry of emails back and forth with her friendly contacts within the system and was kept informed of everything going on. Within a week and a half, Olsa had accelerated what should have taken months. By the end of the second week my family member was back in her home country - safe and thankful for Olsa's expertise and professionalism. We can not be more thankful. Olsa followed through on her promise to do her best and turned us into believers. Olsa is a firecracker of an attorney that cannot be compared. I've dealt with many attorneys for many different matters, but when it comes to immigration and getting the job done, there is no one like her. We have now found the new family attorney. Just in case my point has not been driven across yet - I definitely recommend her.

She is very nice, caring, and understands what her clients needs are. She went to all the interviews with me and answered all their questions with confidence and she answered all my questions whenever I had one. She had a open time table for me and whenever I needed to talk to her she was always avai...lable. If anyone I know ever needs a lawyer I would most definitely recommend her to them. No one could've done what she did.

she is nice, caring, and understands what her clients needs are. She took over my case after another attorney seriously messed up my case and sucked all the money he could form me. Olsa was the polar opposite to my experience with the prior attorney. She understood my needs, worked at a very reasonab...le fees and fixed all the issues created by the previous attorney and got my case approved. Today was my citizenship interview and she was there till the end to make sure I was taken care of and got through my interview without any hiccups. Hats off to this lady. I recommend her not only for what she was able to do for me but also for her professionalism, strong ethics, and high morals. everything you need in a great person and attorney. Thank You Olsa for everything.. ;)

I hired Olsa to represent me in 2012 when I was taken to an immigration detention center for a misdemeanor committed in 2002 as a legal resident. Most individuals in that situation are detained for a period of 4-6 months while they await trial because legal residents are ineligible for bond, but Olsa... got me out on parole after just 3 weeks. During the difficult time while I was detained, Olsa was always responsive, reassuring, and showed a keen understanding of the process. After I was paroled, Olsa checked in with me frequently just to see how I was doing, made sure we filed paperwork in a timely fashion, and worked to expedite proceedings whenever possible. She was completely thorough in preparing me for trial, and on that fateful day she was the utmost professional, communicating expertly with the judge, trial attorney and in her line of questioning to me. Because of her I was granted the Extreme Hardship Waiver and was able to stay in the only country I know with my husband and family, a gift that has no price. Even after she won the case, she continued to work for weeks without pay just to help me retrieve my green card which had been lost in the bureaucratic shuffle. At every step Olsa shows how deeply she cares about her clients and works tirelessly to win her cases. I give Olsa Alikaj-Cano my highest recommendation.
