True and trusted friend in deed in time of need

Me and my wife have just been approved for the permanent residency and I just can't express how relieved that the long ordeal and wait is finally over. I have gone through no.of status changes fromB2-JI-HIB and now finally Adjusted . Like others before me Mr Shusterman's esteemed firm must have proc...essed thousands of cases having different scenarios. His firm was involved inmy case from the JI-HIB Conversion to finally through to Adjustment to PR. While I don't know about the others, his FIRM right fromt he get go was involved with us very intimately and professionally in providing the infos, the much needed documents, necessary feedbacks, and sometimes was even warning against complacency in terms of time sensitive matters. His office is a mixture of very friendly, caring and dedicated individuals who think the clients as one of themselves. In my case , Judy Lu Sr paralegal and Attny Rajakrishna Iyer was mostly involed though in their absense their was always other attny with quick feedback and necessary advice promptly available, and truly I never had the impression of being adrift. These two individuals I mentioned was not only caring and dedicated, they also were always behind me in getting together the important pieces promptly, with correction and most important,I always received the emails/ repliesfrom Judy/ IYER almost immediately regarding the next course of action with explanation.. I have called them so many times including odd times , but the response was always friendly , compassionate and professional. There was always an air of encouragement. Being aware of Carl Shusterman's background as an experienced Immigration Attny,I always had the feeling that my papers will be completed on a successful note,and that is what his dedicated staff has always done. My heartfelt thanks and appreciation to their dedication

Best in the Business

I can honestly say that Mr. Carl Shusterman and his team are probably the best in the business when it comes to immigration matters. Carl's greatest asset is his prior work experience as a former INS prosecutor. My family and I were on the verge of being deported from the United States. Because of... Carl's expertise and dedications, not only are we allowed to remain in this country permanently but are on path of obtaining citizenship. Carl is very professional and caring when it comes to explaining legal matters to his clients. Carl will always put you at ease. He even allowed us to call him at home on evenings and weekends for urgent matters. Now, that's impressive. We also have had the pleasure to work with his other team members (Elif Keles and Ellen Lee). Because of their tireless efforts, our immigration issues were resloved in a matter of months instead of years. It is without a doubt that we will strongly recommend Carl Shusterman to others. After all, whether or not you get to stay in this country is all depend on the compentency of your attorney. And this is something you don't want to compromise.
