Outstanding Service and Highly Recommended!

Thanks to Allan and Taylor, my husband and I will be reunited. They made a tedious process seem painless and we are very appreciative. I thought the CR1 process would take much longer being that he resided in the UAE. All of my concerns were addressed promptly and I was given updates with our case.... We are so very happy and couldnt do it without them! Thank you Allan and Taylor so very much!

Thanks Sharmila. Yes, the U.A.E. can be slow. I hope you have a good life together here in the U.S., but I can't help but wonder how much more impressive it must be to be in the U.A.E. I hope this place is not disappointing. Allan

The whole process went smoothly and I was always informed about timeframes and what to expect next. We woul...d definitely recommend you and use your services again in the future.

Excellent Service

Allan and his paralegal, Taylor, did a fantastic job preparing the documentation and advising my husband and I throughout our green card process. Although my husband and I live in two separate states in the east coast, and Allan was able to accurately guide us via email and phone calls. Taylor was pr...ompt in her replies, and was always able to answer our questions. Of all of the lawyers we contacted earlier in the process, Allan and his associates were the only ones that really took the time to answer or questions make make us feel comfortable. My husband received his green card last week, and we are very grateful to Allan and Taylor for their assistance.

THE NUMBER ONE LAW FIRM TO RETAIN IF YOU WANT ANY IMMIGRATION ISSUES RESOLVED

In a word: Outstanding. I retained you for Anamie’s Fiancée K-1 Visa in July 2010 and we are now at the end of the road on December 13, 2014. Anamie is a U.S. citizen. Your firm completed each and every step along this journey professionally and in an organized manner. Any time I had a question ...for either you or Tami during this four and a half year period, your reply was prompt, courteous and, most of the times, comforting since many of my questions dealt with issues that caused me stress. Without the thorough preparation of Tami and other staff at your firm, this process would not have been completed smoothly, effortlessly, and in such a timely manner. Thank you.

Best decision of my life!

Working on my husbands papers was very nerve racking considering the smallest mistake would prevent us from a life together in the US. I had called around researching offices- some that did not have attorneys but just did the paperwork. None of the other offices I spoke with could explain each stage... of the process to me, one even told me they could not work on my case further then the initial filing... Why would I want to hire a company that could not help me complete the goal of bringing my husband to the US? I was also told by another office I had a good case but if I was denied that was it I lost my money and my husband could not come to US. When I spoke with Allan he explained the entire process to me... When I asked him a worst case scenario if I was denied he personally assured me his office would reply to any questioning and pretty much guaranteed me he would not quit on my case until my husband was here with me and had obtained his green card. I was ecstatic. I hired Allan that same day, he worked with my pay schedule Which made the cost manageable for me. I even had my own personal paralegal who answered all of my questions no matter how silly or small they were. This office was very thorough and explained what was happening at each stage of case processing. Before each approval, I knew what the next step was to entail, and about how long the next stage would take. After my husband came to the US, they followed up letting me know when we need to remove conditions on his 2 year green card and get his permanent green card. I will continue with Allan and his office until we get my husband his citizenship and later we will file for his parents! Thank you Allan for the blessings you have made possible in my life.
