Highly recommended!!!

Gihan is the absolute best!!! She is very knowledgeable of immigration law, professional and dedicated to providing measurable outcomes. After so many bad experiences with previous immigration attorneys, i was privileged to have Mrs Thomas represent me in court during my removal proceedings. She kep...t me informed throughout the entire process and was able to reach a resolution for my case. Mrs Thomas also assisted my family to terminate their proceedings and get their permanent residency. I can confidently say that Gihan is a very competent lawyer that will fight for you until the end. Gihan, thank you much for your remarkable effort, hard work and dedication to my case. Thank you for your support, It has been an honor!

After 22 years, my dream became TRUE!!

Ms Thomas is a very professional attorney who seem to take great pride in doing an excellent job as a professional and in communication with her clients. Gihan was able to break down complex matters and give clear mile makers of what the process would be. She was easy to communicate with and responde...d quickly to emails. She must have hundreds of clients but made me feel like I was the only one. Never forgetting the details of my case and following up when needed. I was granted Asylum after being here in US for 22 years!!!!!! In short I would recommend Gihan to anyone seeking help with immigration matters.

LIFE CHANGING EXPERIENCE

I was referred to Gihan by a Federal Bureau of Investigation officer, when I was stopped in the airport for traveling without proper documentation. After hearing my story, the FBI Agent said that he didn’t understand why I would not be able to gain legal status and perhaps even citizenship to the Uni...ted States of America. He presented me with Gihan’s card and said I should reach out to her. As an official government agent was referring me to her, decided to reach out shortly thereafter and Gihan responded immediately! She heard me out and presented a recommendation to me with a confident assurance that she would be able to help me. Out of my own fear and circumstances, I did not act immediately upon her counsel but I kept the information she provided for me. Sometime later, I reached out to her again and said I was ready to begin the process. My husband and I were resigned to trudge the road of legalization and naturalization for the next 2 to 5 years. We started working with her office and providing all of the documentation they requested. Her entire staff including Valencia one of her assistants, were phenomenal!! They treated me and my husband with the utmost respect and dignity! They were always pleasant and responsive. Gihan always presented all of the information we needed with clear and concise directions. She explained every detail and set very reasonable expectations, including the fact that there was always a slight possibility, though fairly improbable, that she might not be able to win my case. Her promise was always consistent and truthful! She always stated the facts of the case and requested that I followed her lead. It was one of the most stressful times of my life and she, and her staff, always greeted me with such positivity and grace that I always felt like a real person going through a life changing experience!! At the end of the journey, (which was 4 years less than expected) Gihan argued my case so proficiently that we did not even have to go to court! Within 6 months, I was granted asylum based on my life circumstances. In addition, my husband and I experienced a groundbreaking decision that Gihan was responsible in obtaining. To my understanding, it was the first time historically that this exception was allowed for a person seeking asylum in the United States. Yes, it was my story and my life’s work that created this opportunity but it was Gihan’s knowledge of immigration law and her understanding of my culture and background that forged the path to victory! I now have the opportunity to apply for my green card and eventually citizenship to the U.S. and this is all thanks to Gihan Thomas and her entire staff! I could not be more grateful and thankful for this experience. I feel as though her entire office is now a part of my family! I am still in awe and amazement of what Gihan was able to do for me and my family! I more than strongly recommend Gihan and her staff for any legal representation people may be seeking! Thank you Gihan for changing my life for the better!
