Compassion for Clients and Knowledgeable of the Law.

A group of UCLA colleagues referred me to Arthur Minas. Arthur was by far the best lawyer for the job. From the first point of contact to the last, I was confident that he knew exactly what to do with my unusual immigration case, which had a few hiccups. Arthur helped rectify what others had messed u...p in previous filings. From the moment he took over, everything—including communication, paperwork, filing, interview preparation—went smoothly. Along with his expertise with immigration law, he always answered promptly to e-mails and questions, was always friendly and welcoming, and demonstrated throughout the process that he was someone who cared and wanted to help. Thanks to Arthur, I’m finally a Permanent Resident. I will certainly hire him again when it’s time to apply for U.S. Citizenship in the future. I most definitely recommend Arthur Minas as an immigration lawyer.

A smooth and positive Naturalization process thanks to Arthur

Just finished my Naturalization process with the professional help and guidance from Arthur. Every step of the way he was available to answer any of my questions very quickly and made everything crystal clear regarding paperwork needed and what to expect as my case moved forward. Arthur has a true... personal approach with his Clients, and works hard for you because he believes in helping people with his knowledge and expertise of Immigration Law. He was a key part of my process in becoming a Citizen of the U.S.A and I will be forever grateful to him for that.

Took personal interest in my case

Arthur is a well prepared lawyer. From the begining, he explained all the challenges of my case and helped me explore different scenarios. He took the time to get to know me to better prepare my case. In my situation, Arthur and his team did a lot of the foot work ahead of time. He prepared docume...nts that helped explain my case, submitted them in a timely manner, kept me updated of deadlines, and contacted the trial attorney ahead of time to iron out any open questions. This made my hearing go very smooth as the judge and the trial attorney were up to date on my file. Arthur kept me realistic to the challenges of my case, but he also kept me positive by explaining his approach and the aspects of the law working on my favor. Immigration hearings and trials are very exhausting. Im glad I had Arthur and his team on my side to help me thru.

J-1 Trainee at LA-based Film Production Company

I am a European citizen who got an opportunity to take part in a cultural exchange program in the US with an LA-based film production company. Naturally being completely unversed in US immigration law I sought the advice of a qualified and capable US immigration attorney to advise and represent me in... my application process. After a few false starts with a handful of unsatisfying lawyers based throughout Europe and the United States, I was introduced to Arthur. Arthur immediately gave me the confidence in his knowledge and ability to successfully shepherd me through the arduous and complex process of applying for a US visa. Beyond his obvious competence and the high quality of his work, which is naturally best evidenced by my successful application, what singularly impressed me and made the whole experience of working with Arthur so enjoyable was his undivided attention and client service. Bearing in mind that all of our communication generally happened with an 8 hour time difference, he was always able to give me, as well as my sponsoring agency, his full attention at all times and was always prompt to respond and clarify any and all queries and issues, big or small. The end result was that he enabled me to obtain my visa in a very efficient, expedient and ultimately carefree manner. I would vouch for Arthur any day and recommend him to anybody in need of a highly capable, attentive and effective immigration attorney.

Arthur Minas

We had a terrific experience working with Arthur when he helped my parents navigate the process of obtaining their U.S. citizenship. He met with my family a number of times and each time he patiently explained the process and courteously answered questions. He was also always available to answer any ...questions on the telephone. In addition, to handling all the paper work promptly and skillfully, he accompanied my parents to their interview and strongly and successfully advocated for a speedy resolution of their case. Not only is Arthur an accomplished lawyer, he is also a patient listener, thoughtful, and kind – qualities that are extremely useful when navigating the stressful immigration process. I highly recommend Arthur.
