Awesome!

I used this law firm to handle a marriage green card case, with the additional complexities that I was undocumented for almost 2 decades which put me under a category where I was barred from 10 years from returning to the US after I left to Mexico to process my case. It is a very difficult process an...d without a guarantee of successful return to overcome the bar, a gamble you do not want to lose. Attorney Raj Iyer prepared an extremely detailed brief detailing the hardships my husband would face if i was not allowed to return, not once but twice when new additional pregnancy complications occured to make my petition more urgent and compelling. He is an excellent attorney, but more importantly to me since I was terrified of the process, he was very patient, kind, and puts you immediately at ease. The experience could not have been as pleasant without the constant support and assistance of Judy Lu, she is extremely prompt answering any questions you may have,literally within minutes she answers you. She makes you feel as if you were her only client,and is very helpful and a wonderful person.Raj Iyer and Judy Lu are great assets to the firm.

US Citizenship

I was looking for an immigration lawyer around the Los Angeles area and I came across his website. I did not know much about it but immediately I was struck by the fact that Mr. Carl Shusterman was brought into the Senate to chat about immigration reform. Once I made my appointment the staff was extr...emely nice and professional. On my first meeting with Carl, I told him my facts and he was a very good listener and immediately I felt that he connected with me and understood my issues. After meeting with him I was assigned to Ellen Lee and Elsa Garcia. Ellen was my lawyer and Elsa was the paralegal. Both of them were extremely attentive to my case and Elsa was great in ensuring that I had all the paperwork ready before he actually filed for the N-400 application. Ellen is simply great, I felt that she was not a lawyer but a person that genuinely wants to help her clients become a citizen. She was immediately personable and I felt right at ease. Once the office filed my N-400 application, Elsa was the person that notified me about every step even before I was aware of my status. The most important step was the day of the interview, I was naturally nervous and I was really happy once Ellen was there with them. The wait for the interview was an hour and during that time Ellen was chatting with me about life in general and made me feel right at home. Once my name was called I was amazed how many Immigration Officers knew her, just at that moment I knew everything was going to be fine. A week and a half later I got my Oath ceremony and I can't thank Ellen and Elsa enough. I plan on using their immigration service for my parents in probably 3-6 months and they will be the only one I will ever use.
