Rockstar Lawyer

Ban is one of the most informative, compassionate, and emotionally present lawyers, I have ever met or worked with. We were dealing with some immigration issues and her guidance and counsel got us through the process and provided peace of mind while going through it. She will let you know how it a...ll will play out and be clear in expectations and get you through the process. Most of all, you will trust her from day one.

The Best Immigration lawyer

In 2016 I was trying to find an immigration attorney to help me out with my case. I start getting disappointed because every attorney I spoke to won't agree taking my case, tell I got referred through a friend to Attorney Ban Alwardi. when I met her at the first time I could tell that Ban is really... professional and honest. She was willing to explain and answer all of my questions. once I walked out her office I felt that I will be in a good hands. she helped me since day one until I've done my interview. Ban is amazing she makes sure to cover even the small details.One week ago I got the approval notice for my case . I don't know how can I thank her!!!

Best Immigration Attorney

Back in 2009 I was calling around trying to find an immigration attorney to help out with my case. I started to get discouraged because every attorney I spoke to would tell me that I would have to come in to the office for a consultation which came with a fee. Over the phone they wouldn't even ask fo...r my name, they just wanted me to come in to their office. I was almost ready to give up until I came across and called the Law Office of Ban Alwardi. Right away I could feel that Ban really cared and i was not just another pay check. She asked so many questions to understand my situation and was willing to answer all of my questions. As soon as i got off the phone I told my wife that we found our Attorney. Ban walked us through every step and helped us until we were done with our interview. I right away referred her to my Brother who hired her as well in 2010. Just this year in February she helped my parents with their case as well. Ban is so incredible and really cares for each of her cases. She is on top of everything and goes above and beyond for each one of her clients. Our family is forever grateful for what she has done for us. We cannot thank her enough!!!
