Professional Service

We hired Susan to help us with some immigration issues in regards to my Green Card application. Susan and her team were great to work with and assisted us along every step to ensure we had all the correct paperwork for the application. I would highly recommend Susan and her team to anyone who is loo...king for a professional lawyer to assist them on their immigration issues. Great overall value for services give. Thank You Susan and Team..

Above and Beyond!

I cannot recommend Susan Han highly enough. My husband and I hired Susan to file all paperwork and oversee the process for my green card after we got married. The process can be long and drawn out (and at times seem as if it will never end), but Susan and her team made sure that they kept us up to... date on any progress made. Our case had a few twists and turns along the way, but Susan maintained a calm and friendly nature throughout that out us both at ease. Once my case was approved, Susan and her team remained eager to be notified that I had entered the US successfully... showing that they really care about their clients well being. I would definitely recommend Susan and her team to anyone who needed assistance in US immigration matters.

ALMOST A UNITED STATES CITIZEN! THANK YOU!

Susan really cares for her clients. She makes you feel very welcome and does her best to make you understand and make you worriless. I’ve been battling immigration issues with doubts for years! With Susan’s expertise and my complicated history (included a fraud case against me), I am finally going... to become a United States Citizen!!! My husband and I are so relieved. I highly recommend her to anyone that has immigration troubles. I honestly thought my citizenship would definitely be denied... She helped take away a lot of insecurities my husband and I had; we are forever grateful! Thank You Susan!!!

Above and beyond. Miracle worker

Before coming to Susan my situation was bleak. My company had attempted a L1 petition without seeking counsel and needless to say it came back as rejected. I insisted we use a lawyer and that's when I came across Susan. Right from the first meeting she showed an incredible amount of knowledge in ...the field of immigration and laid out exactly what the next steps had to be. She always kept me apprised of updates and anything else she thought would help my cause. The petition she sent to the immigration service was outstanding. My case was not only reopened (against all odds!) but granted, without any need for further evidence. Remarkable work. Would highly recommend.

Hard work and perseverance can make miracles happen

I've been struggling with an immigration case for the last 13 years and unfortunately my previous lawyers steered me into a bad corner which was very hard for me to get out of. I was hoping to get a permanent resident status but instead ended up in removal proceedings. A friend of mine who had been r...epresented by attorney Susan Han highly recommended that I have her represent me in the immigration court. It was by far the best decision that I could have made to help my case. Susan and her staff, are very knowledgeable and extremely competent in handling even the most difficult and complicated immigration cases. Their sound legal advise, systematic and organized approach helped completely turn around my situation and from being so close to deportation, today in court, I got my status adjustment approved for green card. This wouldn't have been possible without the perseverance, hard work and personal attention of Susan Han and her assistant Marina Andrei. My husband and I are deeply grateful for all their efforts in ensuring that I receive justice and a fair chance at a happy life here in the United States. I would recommend the law firm of Susan Han to anybody who needs immigration assistance and I'm confident that they will be able to help in any immigration situation. For me, they made the impossible, possible and I will always be grateful to them. Thank you, Susan and Marina for all your hard work and support! God bless you!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
