Living my best life

Micheal thank you so much for fighting for me. My daughter is going to be 16 this year. And my son turned 13 if it wasn't for your hard work on dedication it would not be here to watch them grow. Thank you for fighting for me to stay in this amazing country.

Excellent, Knowledgeable, Great Experience!

I found Michael to be very knowledgeable and helpful in my immigration case. After collecting the basic necessary information from me regarding my case, he took time to sit with me personally and listen to my concerns, listen to and fully answer all of my questions, and to discuss how my case can mo...ve forward. Although he has legal and office staff, I was very pleased to be communicating and working directly with him the entire time. I did not have to send messages through assistants or paralegals, as is normally the case when working with attorneys. Michael was easy to communicate with, responded to my emails and phone calls promptly and with a thorough and diligent response to each of my questions and concerns. He was not only very knowledgeable of immigration law, he was very familiar with USCIS policies and internal procedures - this insight he provided has been invaluable. Michael is also a very warm and friendly person and after meeting with him, I could tell that he genuinely cared about my case and making it move forward. My case is close to being finished, and I have to thank Michael and his law office for being such an important part of our our successful case. Highly recommended!

Excellent Immigration Attorney

In 2017 we came to Michael's law office with a very complicated situation involving adoption and immigration plus our daughter's case previously handled by another attorney was denied. Michael, a professional Immigration Attorney, successfully helped our daughter to get her green card a year ago. Sin...ce then we often contact him whenever we do not understand something and need help. He truly cares about a client's need. He treated us in a comfortable way like his family. He provided us a lot of useful information and answered any and all questions that we had concerns, for example the eligibility for naturalization - absences and continuous residence etc. He possesses outstanding knowledge of INS law. We will recommend him to anyone who needs help.

A very professional attorney

My daughter has got her green card finally. Mr. Michael Murray helped her make the difference. We came to Michael with a very complicated situation involving adoption and immigration plus my daughter was turning 18 (the age of majority). Actually my daughter’s case previously handled by anothe...r attorney was denied. After long search for an attorney I decided to try Michael because of his 5-star google reviews. Michael gave us a hope as to what he could do for us and how he was going to do it. He was very honest since day 1 and the rate he charged was reasonable. He handled my daughter’s case with a competently professional manner. He represented us at the family court twice. He was able to pay close attention to details, figure the issues out, put all the necessary paperwork together. He also delivered personalized service to his clients via phone and email. All our questions and concern were always addressed without delay. The turnaround time during the green card application was extremely fast. Michael and his team always made things clear and easy to understand, especially Tatiane who was kind and patient with us. His team always kept us up to date with everything regarding my daughter’s case. Michael is a KNOWLEDGEABLE, HONEST, EFFICIENT attorney. We want to give Michael and his team the highest regards and recommendations.
