Success Case - E2 Visa Approved

I am a born Canadian Citizen. I found Bobby when I was searching and reviewing for an attorney to represent my E2 Visa case. I came across numerous lawyers but what really caught me was how knowledgeable and presentable Bobby was about the whole process. His free consultation had answered all my ques...tions and I knew right then he was the attorney to represent my case matter. It was a long process but when ever I encountered any problems the firm was there to help me out and guide me to the right path. Today is May 08, 2015 and I hold my E2 visa. I am so excited and grateful thank you Bobby and your team for the help and support.

E2 Visa Success

I started looking for a lawyer to help me with my E2 application a while back and saw Bobby's website which had a wealth of information. Right after contacting Bobby I immediately received a response on the same day to have a free consultation with him, after which I knew Bobby was the lawyer I would... like for my application. I've contacted 3 other lawyers regarding my E2 case before finding Bobby, none of which were as confident or as responsive as Bobby. As I've had the experience of missing out on the H1B due to a unresponsive lawyer, responsiveness was something that I really valued. Bobby always responds within a day or two, and to me, that showed dedication to all of his clients. Bobby is also very knowledgeable and from his website you can tell he has helped many with their E2 applications. If you are looking for an attorney to help you through a somewhat long and complicated application process, hire Bobby. Thank you for all the great advice and services, Bobby, and also thanks to Randi as well for working on my case under a tight deadline. You and your team are simply wonderful.

Knowledgeable, Professional and a Pleasure to do business with.

My name is Adrian Portelli and I am an Australian who was looking for support applying for my E2 visa. I first began looking for immigration lawyers from back in Australia and came across a number of options. Bobby was the first to reply and after a free phone consultation I was shortly on a plane to... visit bobby in California where we had a meeting. From the get go I ultimately felt that my case and my application was under control and in safe hands. Throughout the whole process Bobby and his team supported the process of application and prepared beyond doubt via countless hours ensuring that my visa would be approved by the consulate. Firstly I do not know how to thank Bobby Chung for the support and commitment he showed to our case. Before I met Bobby I would not have known where to begin, but with him and his teams expertise, it was a pleasant experience and made this journey as stress free as possible. Thank You once again. Adrian

"I have worked together with Bobby on many matters, with him handling the immigration side of things and me the business and corporate law. He is consistently a pleasure to work with and our mutual clients feel the same way. He is knowledgeable, experienced, and easy-going. He can communicate immigration law concepts in plain English (and apparently Mandarin and Cantonese, as well, not that I would understand!).
