K-1 Visa (Jamaica)

I am speechless :-).... Mr. Holmes and his staff are amazing. They work very fast, explain things very clearly, answered the millions of questions I had and made the process very smooth and easy. All I had to do was provide them with the requested information and they handled everything. Heather Carn...aje was assigned to assist me with the processing of my petition with Mr Holmes overseeing everything. I live in New York and my fiance lived in Jamaica. After providing them with all the necessary documents, we officially began filing October 2013 and received notification that our petition was received by the USCIS November 2013. Our Petition was approved January 2014. As you can see based on the time frame our petition was approve rather quickly due to the promptness of Heather Carnaje and Mr Holmes. My fiance had has his medical exam appt and interview in April 2014 and received his visa May 28 2014 (about a month after his interview). He arrived in New York May 31, 2014 We are currently scheduled to get married on 07/18/2014. I am very thankful and appreciate all the hard work and dedication that this office provided us. I never thought it would happen this fast. :-)

Revoew of Yvonne

Yvonne at the law firm of Lawrence R. Holmes did an outstanding job of keeping the CR Visa process organized and moving forward through the myriad of government agencies and procedures. At the same time, she kept us informed of what to expect, provided detailed instructions on what we needed to do an...d when it needed to be done, as well as answered every question we asked in a timely and professional manner. There is simply no way we would have been able to get through this without professional assistance and I highly recommend Yvonne to anyone who is considering an immigration law firm.

Immigration made easy!

Yvonne made our immigration experience absolutely hassle free! Assisting with and lodging our application, communicating with us throughout the processing, and prep for our interview. I received my green card in under 3 months. Highly recommended for a streamlined and fast result.

Great Immigration Lawyer

Diana Nunez/Lawrence R. Holmes helped us with our AoS and RoC procedure. She always did a really great job, always answered emails really fast and guided us through the whole process. She gave us great, structured lists of the different documents needed from who and for what. She also answered ever...y question we had and explained things detailed. Both times she filed for us within the time frame we had and we also were approved really fast - much faster than the waiting times posted on the USCIS website. We liked her service so much, that we referred another couple to Lawrence R. Holmes and they had the same great experience and were approved fast.
