Very Professional and knowledgeable

I would highly recommend hiring Carl Shusterman as a lawyer who does not take advantage of you nor your time and money like many other lawyers do. He is very straightforward and has helped tremendously in my case and has made it a success. He was recommended to me by a friend and I have been very sat...isfied. While working with him I have learned that he has many years of experience. I also subscribed to his website newsletter and with each reading, I have discovered all the different cases he has solved and how involved he is with each and every case. His newsletter is also very informative.

One of the best law firms in US - no doubt about it

I cannot say enough good things about this law firm. It started with my initial consultation with Carl Shusterman. From the get go, I clearly understood the requirements, process, timing and the fee structure for handling our case.Then Ms. Elsa Garcia took over; she collected all of our information, ...organized them and filed the required forms. She is very professional and helpful. She also answered questions posed by my elderly parents and made them feel comfortable. We then met Ms. Ellen Lee as our case progressed. She is very very impressive. Her experience and knowledge is simply amazing. She saw our case through to a successful conclusion. The entire team working at this firm are simply "great".

For best results, hire the best.

At the time I hired Carl Shusterman in 2006 to assist me with my application for US citizenship, I had been a Legal Permanent Resident (LPR). The most important issue that blocked my path to citizenship was the fact that I had lived a long, long long time out of the United Stated after becoming an LP...R in 1971. Acting on Mr. Shusterman's sage advice, I was able to collect documents that suggested I had intended to maintain family, social, and financial ties to the United States. Accompanied by one of Mr. Shusterman's staff immigration attorneys, I sailed through my citizenship interview and passed the citizenship test without difficulty. Many months later, the real value of the service Mr. Shusterman provides was highlighted when the US Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) had still refused to decide whether to grant my naturalization. USCIS hadn't decided on my case because the FBI had not completed its background check, notwithstanding the fact that USCIS is required by law to grant or deny citizenship applications within 120 days after completing the naturalization interview. With only weeks left left before my fingerprints for the FBI background check were to expire, (meaning that I would have to go to the back of the background-check line and wait all over again), Mr. Shusterman's crack litigation attorney, Amy Prokop came to the rescue. On my behalf, Ms. Prokop filed a petition for mandamus relief with US federal district court asking the court to order USCIS to make a decision on my citizenship application. The suit spurred the USCIS mandarins to make their decision. Thanks to Mr. Shusterman and Ms. Prokop, I was sworn in to become a proud US citizen. I highly recommend Mr. Shusterman for anyone needing a trustworthy and knowledgeable immigration attorney.
