Kim Buhler-Thomas

Kim was a beacon of clarity during a frustrating and confusing process. I initially tried to file our marriage green card application on my own and only realized later that I had submitted just one of several required forms. I was overwhelmed and worried I’d make serious mistakes. From the moment we ...started working with Kim, everything changed. She answered all our questions with patience, simplified the entire process, and brought us peace of mind. She even met with us on Christmas Eve to help finalize our packet so we could submit it ASAP. When we got our interview notice, she responded quickly—scheduling a late-night Zoom call to walk us through what to expect and gave us a detailed checklist to stay organized. Thanks to her guidance, we felt confident and prepared—and the interview went smoothly. Kim is not just a knowledgeable attorney, but a kind and supportive person who genuinely cares. We’re so grateful for her help and can’t recommend her enough!

Kim has helped me to get Travel Document over 6 years. She has done excellent job every time to get things done correctly and timely. The most touching one is in this year, when I forgot to renew my Travel Document and I could not come back to the U.S. due to business reason. I just have three day...s conference in Hawaii. Kim and her team made a few conference calls with various parties and prepared all necessary materials to get my application done in a very narrow time range. This really needs a lot of knowledge, skills, and leadership. The most touching part is during the period when she had a shoulder surgery and her kid was in hospital. Kim is such a dedicated professional! I have no doubt to recommend her to anyone who needs immigration service and I know she never lets you down!

Kim Buhler is an incredibly talented, capable, and ethical lawyer, and I recommend her to anyone looking to retain an immigration attorney. The following brief comments are characteristic of my experiences with her. I had a question at one point regarding a possible shortcut in the naturalization p...rocess for my husband. Kim didn't know the answer 100%, yet wasn't afraid to call other attorney-colleagues to double check so she could give me the absolute truth, regardless of how it impacted my situation. This helped me see how deeply she cares about her clients and about being a thorough and capable advocate for them. Kim is, of course, very punctual and timely in responding to calls, texts, and emails. She is respectful to all parties involved and issues carbon-copied emails to prevent any gap of misunderstanding. She informed us of things to work on for the permanent resident interview months in advance and prepared us with mock interviews. Truly, choosing an immigration attorney can be a daunting experience. A lot of little errors on the attorney's end can wind you up into bigger trouble later on. Working with Kim, however, on immigration documents that required so much attention to detail, and on a matter that affected me and my family in such a huge way, I was able to rest peacefully at night. Kim Buhler es una abogada increíblemente talentosa, capaz y ética, y le recomiendo a cualquiera que quiera tener a un abogado de inmigración. Los siguientes comentarios breves son característicos de mis experiencias con ella. Tenía una pregunta tocante a un posible proceso más corto para la naturalización de mi esposo y Kim no sabía la respuesta al 100%. Sin embargo, ella no tenía miedo de llamar a otros abogados ó colegas para corroborar la respuesta. De esa manera, ella me podría dar la respuesta correcta y más acertada a mi situación. Esto me ayudó a ver lo interesada que ella está por sus clientes y en su situación legal. Kim es, por supuesto, muy puntual y responsable para responder a las llamadas, textos y mensajes de correo electrónico. Ella es respetuosa con todas las partes involuncradas y es clara en su información para evitar cualquier brecha de incomprensión. Ella nos informó de las cosas que necesitaríamos durante la entrevista para residencia permanente por adelantado y nos preparó con entrevistas simuladas. En verdad, la selección de un abogado de inmigración puede ser una experiencia desalentadora. Muchos pequeños errores del abogado pueden resultar en grandes problemas más adelante. Trabajar con Kim, sin embargo, en los documentos fue diferente por su atención a los detalles y su preparación; al grado que mi familia y yo pudimos tener tranquilidad durante este proceso.

Had a free consultation. All she did was terrorize my case and make me think I can't do it without her. She made me feel stupid by telling me I should have filed a fiance visa for my wife instead of a spouse visa. because of all the terror I was stupid and paid her $300 to review my affidavit of supp...ort and ds-230 paperwork. It was a 1 hour session. She showed up 15 min late and she ended it 5 min early. So i only got 40 minutes and 12 of those minutes she was on the phone. She said everything was fine. I sent it in and the NVC sent a letter back stating that there were some things missing. Which you think this Lawyer would have told me to add after all I did pay her $300 so that this thing would not happen. I then decided to take my case over myself and communicate with the NVC and embassy. It all worked out and my wife and I are happy here in the U.S. now. All this Lawyer did was stress me out and make me feel stupid. I would NEVER recommend this lawyer. She will stress you out and do nothing for you. I don't want anyone else to fall victim of her. Read USCIS documents well. Make phone calls, read forums, use visajourney.com. Immigration is a very simple process if done right and you follow instructions. by the way this lawyers prices are RIDICULOUS !!!!!
