Overall good experience, with one major critique.

This process is very confusing at best. Although the attorney did help us along the way, we did sometimes feel as though we were left to assume some of the information that wasn't as obvious to us. However, when we asked clarifying questions, we did get more information. The most concerning thing I w...ould wish to stress upon the attorney is to make it very clear that photographs are the most important thing when visiting the fiance'. It should be clarified that an abundance of pictures is necessary, which include pictures of the couple with family and friends and also that neither party should be wearing sunglasses or anything that may hinder being able to clearly identify them. This lack of knowledge cost us an initial rejection of the visa as well as having to make a costly second trip to take those photographs

Proffessional Firm

I searched through many different lawyers trying to get the best service for the best price while my wife and I were working on her spousal visa. My interest was peaked after stumbling across Mr. Holmes website and I read the reviews ( all were very positive). I gave the office a call and was able to... speak to Mr. Holmes directly and from start to finish he explained how the process would work. His demeanor on the phone and reachability were what sold me on the firm. Shorlty after we started the process Danielle was assigned to our case and she was exactly what we needed. She put up with my constant emails, phone calls, and questions and always replied patiently and took the time to make sure I understood what she was doing for us and what she needed us to complete to keep the process running smoothly. I couldnt have asked for a better leagal team. They are fairly priced and the services they provide are worth every penny! A big THANK YOU again to Danielle, Lawrence, Chris, and everyone else that helped with my wifes immigration.

Client Services Review

This Law firm was very helpful and knowledgeable concerning our case. Never at any time did we ever feel like just another case number. They even went the extra mile of working with us financially by allowing us to split our retainer fee into siutable payments all while working our case. Whenever W...e contacted them for any concern we were given a detailed and concise response. We always received prompt and timely updates concerning our issues. Simply put I would highly recomend this firm for cases regarding immigration. Two thumbs up for these guys!

Recommend to anyone, anywhere!

My husband and I live in Michigan and we were searching for good lawyers online and stumbled upon Lawrence Holmes. The best thing that could have happened to us! We felt so safe with this lawyer right away and it did not matter that we were half way across the U.S from them, all our paperwork went by... easily and smoothly. Any questions we needed answered were answered. When my husband and I walked into the interview room, we felt extremely well prepared. The right lawyer isn't always the one on your doorstep! Ps: EXCELLENT AND AFFORDABLE!

Excellent Service and Very Helpful the entire way through the process

Mr. Holmes was always available for specific help and legal counsel anytime we needed it. We applied, and received a green card for my husband. Although getting a lawyer for this process is expensive, it was helpful because there is so much wrong information out there, and Mr. Holmes and his office w...ere specific of what they needed from us, and then did everything else for us!
