We're grateful

We entered to this country in the year 2001, the same year that my wife and I met, since then we are together, we got married in 2015 when the laws of this country allowed us to get married. During that time we were unable to legalize our status, we touched many doors looking for a solution and the a...nswer was always negative until we met the lawyer Bouknight. His knowledgeable of the laws and he as a experienced lawyer gave us the positive response we sought for so many years. After more than 16 years of living in the shadows, lawyer Bouknight managed to get USCIS to approve a request for asylum that was also requested in a complicated manner where the chances of winning were very small. We are very happy because today our immigration status is LEGAL, thanks to lawyer Bouknight and the universe for put him in our way.

Permanent Residency

I had a great experience working with Wycuie Bouknight. Having been on the other side of the process, he is very knowledgeable about the permanent residency application process. His timeline predictions for every step of the process were accurate. He was also helpful with other employment decisions t...hat were dependent on my permanent residency. My green card is in the mail. I am super excited and I highly recommend this lawyer for all your immigration needs. Good luck!!!

Great,Knowledgeable,Friendly

It's my honor to have Attorney Wycuie Bouknight who handled my case coz I've been here in the US for more than 15 years as a Permanent Residents and never tried to apply for naturalization the reason was I might not pass the test and one day, my wife's friend told me about Attorney Wycuie Bouknight I... was convinced I called him and when I spoke to him he encouraged me and explained about naturalization very clearly I felt very comfortable when I consulted him I told to myself this is it, this is an excellent lawyer inspite of being friendly and humble.In short, I just have my test done with the presence of Attorney Bouknight who flew all the way from CT to Hawaii just to be with me on the day of my test , soon I'm going to have my oath taking.Thank you Attorney Wycuie Bouknight for the excellent service for me and God Bless you of being a very kindhearted person MAHALO!!!

Immigration lawyer | Aug 01

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I've known Wycuie personally and professionally for about 10 years, on "the other side" when he worked for DHS and as a colleague when he resumed solo practice. As an ICE trial attorney in Honolulu he was reasonable and compassionate. As a solo he's developed a great reputation and he knows his stuff. He's a powerful advocate who thinks outside the box for the best results for his clients."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Wycuie for many years. He used to be an Assistant Chief Counsel for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). He was a tough lawyer to go up against, but always fair to deal with. He has succeeded in transitioning to private practice. When I talk to him, he has great passion for his clients. He is a great immigration lawyer. He not only has a strong knowledge of immigration law, but his background from working at ICE gives him a unique perspective on his cases. What I like most about Wycuie is that he always has a smile on his face and it's always a pleasure talking to him."
