Exactly what we needed

I'm very happy to say that I finally have my 10-year green card! My wife and I are very excited and we are extremely grateful to Yvonne for all of her help during this process. Yvonne is very professional, knowledgeable, and great at communication. She guided us in collecting all of our supporting do...cuments so that we could build a strong case from the very beginning and this helped get our application approved with more ease.

Professionalism and responsiveness

I sincerely appreciate the hard work Yvonne have done for us throughout my husband’s case. I am so grateful for her dedication and professionalism she have shown us. She made my husband’s case so effortless with such easy instructions to follow. I would and have recommended Holmes & Ramos to whoever ...needs help with their immigration journey. Thank you again for everything.

Couldn't have done it without Yvonne!

My wife and I had the most amazing experience with Lawrence R. Holmes Immigration Attorneys and Yvonne was there to help us along the way. From 2016 when we initiated the Fiance Visa process all the way to when my wife was awarded US citizenship in 2020. I had no idea what I was doing and knew I need...ed an attorney so I found Holmes and Ramos online. I was so impressed by the attention to detail, the genuine care and empathy that Yvonne had. Everything was carefully and easily explained to us and filled out, looked over, and not a single mistake was made on all of our many petitions! We did not experience a single hangup in the process, never had to make corrections, never had to submit additional documents or anything. It was quite simply the smoothest process it could possibly be and we are very happy and so relieved to finally be on the other side. What started off as a dream between two people who loved each other across the world, resulted in those two people being united together in the US in a wonderful marriage full of love (with two beautiful children) because of the hard work and dedication demonstrated by Holmes and Ramos and Yvonne. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, there is no way to possibly convey how happy and thankful we are that you have helped bring us this far!

Overall they did a fantastic job with helping us with our immigration paperwork There could have been a bit more preparation for the interview or an offer to be present by telephone but they were very thorough and job was well done

BEST CARE EVER

Just over 4 years ago, I hired Lawrence R Holmes after speaking to him for 30 minutes of consultation. I felt very confident and comfortable with this law firm to handle my case that began from a K1 VISA to a final Citizenship of my wife. The case from the get go was assigned to one of his assistance...s named Yvonne. This lady abilities , care , attention to details and professional handling of most sensitive matters are second to none. Yvonne gave so much attention and care that at times I thought as if she is putting all her efforts and meticulousness for her sister's care or as if I was a family member. Later I found out that she treats all her assigned cases entirely sincere and with passion. In 4 years and 6 months , We never had to worry about errors , mistakes or mishandling of the case . Everything and every application was moved like a clock flawlessly. She would always response to my emails right away, always calling me back and explaining the status of things or the process. Always notifying us immediately regarding any USCIS notifications. In reality she held our hands through for 4 and half years and yesterday flawlessly my wife became a US CITIZEN. I feel very lucky that I had found and accepted Lawrence Holmes firm to carry an extensive agenda . The bank of knowledge that this firm has is truly in the highest standards. The care and attention to client is unreal. The assets in that firm such as Yvonne posses a high moral value and knowledge. We highly recommend this firm beyond all others and specially Yvonne who puts you in a comfort zone with all her knowledge and abilities . Thank you Lawrence for structuring such a law firm and MANY MANY MANY THANKS Yvonne for giving us your undivided attention for 4 and half years. Your love and care to this case can never be forgotten. Phillip Eftekhari & Narges Doostkhah
