Kristin A. Knudson

In 2020, we consulted with Kristin for an AOS/one-step case (my partner is a U.S. citizen). In 2021, we hired Leah from her firm. By the time I received my green card this year and closed the case, we spent $11k+ at this firm. That is considerably more than we expected to pay (Kristin had initially t...old us that $6,560 may cover the full course of the case). Be careful with emailing the firm because the billable hours for an attorney/paralegal to read and respond really adds up. We wish they had been clearer about that in the beginning. During the case, back and forth emails became so expensive that I became an immigration paralegal at another firm. I worked on my own case to save money, including finding where to do my medical exam and assembling our bona fides (aka proof of genuine marriage) for our I-485 interview. I insisted that our attorney appear telephonically for our interview so we wouldn’t be billed for travel time. From 2021-2023, our case was transferred to 4 different paralegals, each of whom left Knudson & Associates LLC. I work in this field – that kind of turnover is concerning and further delayed fulfilling simple requests like sending a digital copy of a receipt notice. I added 1 star for James, the attorney who took our case when Leah left the firm. James used his sense of humor to connect with us, and him and paralegal Natasha treated us with kindness. They were the only ones who recognized how much I sacrificed to be in the U.S. After the case closed, we reached out to Kristin to address our negative experience with her firm. Her response confirmed that it’s in our best interest to find a different law firm for the next step in my case. If you have a marriage-based immigration case, I recommend you go elsewhere. Knudson & Associates LLC was costly and hard to work with.

I found Kristin on "avvo" back in 2014 to work on my H1B petition and ever since she had worked on my H1B extension and the permanent residency applications. She is very knowledgeable , thorough and always easy to reach out. For past six years she had done an excellent job on my case and recently i'...ve received my green card thanks to her hard work. I highly recommend Kristin for anyone who is seeking for immigration petition.

After attempting to apply for adjustment of status many times before, I finally got the sense to seek some professional advice, and I’m glad I did! Kristin and associates offered all of their knowledge and guided my husband and I through the whole process and made it stress free for us. It wasn’t lon...g after, upon acquiring her services, that I got the answer from immigration that I have been waiting to get for years! I am sure happy and will be back to seek her services when I am ready to become a citizen.

When your ability to stay with your family is at stake, you need a lawyer that you can depend on 100%. Kristin Knudsen is that lawyer. She represented me in my immigration process, which resulted in obtaining permanent residency. She was very thorough, responsive, and kind throughout. I highly recomm...end Kristin. She’s a brilliant lawyer. Also, the law firm’s staff, from the front desk to the paralegals, are super helpful and make you smile even during what can be a stressful process.

Kristin handled my E2 investor visa to start operations of my startup in the US. I was lucky to find her after contacting several business immigration attorneys in Denver and she made the difference since the beginning. She quickly and precisely responded to all my questions and I started working wit...h her right away. During the first weeks gathering all the documentation she was always very strict and detailed to ensure all the necessary documentation was in place, and by the end of the application process she put a lot of effort to review and double check that the package was consistent and complete. She finally provided good advise for the embassy interview and handed me a paper copy of the entire package to bring in with me at the interview. Thanks to her, when I got to the embassy a few weeks later, I had that confidence you need before passing a difficult exam or winning an important game. We nailed it!
