E2 Visa

After calling multiple lawyers in CA, my partner and I came across Bobby and were extremely impressed by his professionalism, education and incredible reviews by previous visa applicants. We chose to hire Bobby for our E2 application and we are over the moon that we did! Bobby provided us with in...credible communication, all the paper work and reading materials we needed. And guided us step by step through our E2 application process. Even considering we applied for our E2 visa during the pandemic. Bobby and his team provided us with on going support and confidence. We were extremely impressed with how he prepped us and supported us for our visa interview and we walked away with an approval! We are so delighted that we hired Attorney Bobby Chung to be our Laywer for our E2 visa and will continue to work with him further more for our renewal. We would highly recommend him to all!

E2 APPROVED

I came across Bobby online and he’s services stood out to me. I was extremely happy after our initial phone consultation. After our phone call we decided to start the process with the E2 visa. Bobby guided us in every step possible, whenever I wasn’t sure on something he would reply straight away to ...me through email. We applied for the visa during the hardest times in Covid when all the borders where closed however Bobby guided us in every single step and today we got approved our E2 visa. We will continue to use Bobby for our renewal and are forever grateful to have him by our side.

Received my E2 Visa!

So thankful for the amazing work of Bobby and his team. Me and my business partner first heard about E2 Visa last year during the pandemic and we initially thought that the process is going to be long and tedious and we weren’t even sure if it’s all going to work out. Upon our first call with Bobby, ...we knew immediately that he would be the perfect partner to help us guide through everything so we decided to hire him around April 2021. Throughout the year, Bobby has given us thorough guides and detailed instructions to make sure that we do everything correctly and not leave any gaps that may cause visa denial. Fast forward to January 2022, interview day was super easy and the visa was granted in just a few days. We still can’t believe that we finally got it and it wouldn’t be possible without the help of Bobby and his team. Will definitely work with him again when it comes to renewing the visa!!!! If you’re looking to hire a lawyer to get an E2 visa, look no more!!!!

Bobby and his team are FANTASTIC!

We met with Bobby in January of 2021. During our initial consultation Bobby was candid and open about the possibility of obtaining our E-2 Visa. He was professional and put us at ease right away. The information that was provided by Bobby and his staff (specially Lotte Aarsman) was fantastic and af...ter a few months we were ready to proceed. Once our application was processed and we were selected for an interview, we had another meeting with Bobby about what to expect and what questions the consulate may ask. Fortunately for us our interview went well and we received our five year E-2 Visas, in less than 10 months of our first meeting, all while navigating through the COVID restricitions and protocols. We were so impressed with Bobby and his team that we are now using his services to apply for my spouse's EAD. I have also recommended Bobby to friends of mine to use his services. If you want to get the straight talk and work with professionals, Bobby and his team are the way to go!

E2 Visa approved

We would highly recommend using Mr. Bobby Chung for your immigration requirements. Right from the beginning we found Mr. Chung and his team to be very diligent in the way they operate. After our initial consultation call we were confident that we had hired an attorney who was incredibly knowledgeable... and clearly had a great track record of success, Mr. Chung provides his clients with a step by step guide tailored to your specific situation, he provides a clear roadmap of the process and offers sound advice that maximizes your chances of getting approval. One major highlight is that Mr. Chung and his team are very responsive by email and phone; they’re always willing to find time to answer your questions. Thank you Mr. Chung and the team!
