Very good

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to Wycuie Bouknight for his professionalism and support during the asylum process. From the very beginning of our cooperation, I felt that I was in good hands. Wycuie Bouknight showed a deep understanding of my case, listened carefully to my concerns and o...ffered competent solutions at every stage. His knowledge and experience in the field of immigration law helped me feel confident, even in the most difficult moments. I appreciate his persistence and attention to detail, which played a key role in the successful outcome of my case. I recommend Wycuie Bouknight to anyone looking for a reliable and competent specialist to protect their interests. Thank you for your help and support!

Great service, even better results

Mr. Bouknight and his team helped me with a change of status first and my green card application later. They have always provided the best service, clarifying ALL questions I had throughout the processes and assisting in every way posible to accomplish our goals. They were extremely attentive and res...pond quickly to any emails and phone calls when I needed them. I highly recommend hiring them. Immigration processes are always nerve recking and having them by your side makes you feel as confident and at ease as posible. They are always clear with you about your odds and explain everything so that you understand everything they are working on at the time. Thank you for such an immense help!

Excellent experience

To begin with, we had no idea how to apply for my partner’s change of status, all we saw was an insurmountable wall of paperwork, an unresponsive bureaucracy who’s opaque inner-workings were such by design, and the potential of wasting thousands of dollars on a rejected application. At one point, due... to our own administrative filing error, our entire application was rejected; Mr. Bouknight was able to petition a reversal that decision and quickly helped us correct the issue, furthermore he helped us break this gargantuan task of applying for an adjustment of status, into manageable bites. Mr Bouknight’s experience, and frankly, his candor ensured that we felt well informed at all stages of our Green Card application process. His extensive experience meant that there were absolutely no major surprises, and the few that occurred were simply and easily handled on our behalf. Mr. Bouknight, and his team did an excellent job managing our application by clearly and plainly explaining what we were signing, and most importantly where we needed to sign. Requested documentation was often bundled together, and he and his team were extremely quick to respond when we had any questions. Looking back, we also felt that we were presented a realistic, accurate and grounded timeline at the start of the process. Knowing roughly how long this process could take, made it easier for us to plan our lives around it. From our experience, we can say with confidence that Mr. Bouknight, and his team can be trusted to handle any and all of the difficulties related to an adjustment of immigration status. Their knowledge, experience, open-mindedness and general friendly-helpfulness were a vitally needed safe-harbor in dealings with the naturally turbid waters of the US Immigration system. No question too small, or too stupid, our concerns and issues were taken care of and in many cases anticipated and corrected before we had a chance to meet them. We never felt spoken down to, and we never felt disregarded. I would recommend Mr. Bouknight and his team to everyone, for his knowledge, his experience, and for his general handling of us and our concerns.

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."
