Excellent Services

Highly recommended Yingfei to anyone who needs a immigration lawyer. I used her services twice, both for conditional green card application and permanent green card application. Both experiences have been great. Yingfei is super fast in responses for any questions I ask. Very professional and detail-...oriented. The price is also very competitive and reasonable. I would definitely recommend Yingfei to all my friends.

Attorney Yingfei zhou helped me with my H1B transfer several times. It was difficult cases with RFE. She discussed the cases with me very patient and professional.Yingfei understands the immigration policy and totally know what the immigration officer is looking for. Yingfei helped and suggested me p...repared some key documents for my cases. Following her professional advice,my H-1B visa was successfully approved every time. I really appreciate Yingfei’s great respect and patience, and it made me feel comfortable and reliable. She is really efficient and detail- oriented attorney as well, normally she always completed all the documents ready and submitted them to USCIS within a week. If you are looking for the best immigration attorney, I would highly recommend her.

Excellent experience. Highly recommended.

Yingfei helped my wife with her marriage green card. It was an amazing experience working with Yingfei throughout the whole process. She was very dependable and always keep us updated regarding the case status and all the materials we need to prepare for. Communication with Yingfei was very easy, and... every time we reach out to her with questions, she was always responsive and considerate. Definitely recommend her to anyone with immigration needs.

Responsible, Professional, Excellent!!!

I have successfully obtained my first H1B in 2015 as a Startup owner and successfully renewed the H1B recently with the help of Yingfei. She's the most responsible lawyer I have ever seen. She guided me with every step of the application patiently and helped me prepare the materials very professional...ly. I never have to worry about any deadlines since Yingfei always keeps an eye for me, and makes me feel reassured. I have recommended some friends to Yingfei, and they all have got good news with her help. Yingfei is definitely an excellent immigration lawyer and a great person!
