For Immigration Expertise and Peace of Mind, Larry and his Staff

Anyone going through the immigration process knows it's complicated, confusing, time consuming and nerve wracking. We thought about possibly doing it ourselves but after having lived it I can tell you definitely hire these folks! They are worth every cent. Seriously, this is the best investment yo...u can make in yourselves and you will have peace of mind. Larry and his team of immigration law experts put all our fears at rest and helped us, step-by-step through the whole process. Even though their office is on the other side of the country, we felt like his staff was right by our side. We had total access to Larry and his staff, especially Yvonne, who answered each question we had with confidence and knowledge time after time. Our interview was smooth sailing and we will have our green card in about 3 weeks! We really needed the expertise we paid for. A complication during my fiancé's entry was incredibly stressful. I called Larry immediately and he gave me the calming advice and reassurance that you just can't put a price on. Spasibo Larry, Yvonne and the entire staff!

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!

THANK YOU SO MUCH...

I used the immigration services offered. My wife and I are more than pleased with the outcome. My wife recieved her visa in a little over six months timeframe ... and this team was very prompt with keeping us informed and answering any questions that we had every step of the way... even providing s...ome pre-screening questions for my wife to review prior to her Embassy interview. I want to say thanks for all the help.

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!

A Fantastic Service, Highly Recommended.

I had considered moving from England to America many times to be with my long term partner Victoria (soon to be married!), but was initially put off by the length and complexity of the K1 visa application process. We both decided to try and complete the process alone but had real trouble getting past... the first step as neither of us have any experience in this field. We eventually made the very wise decision to seek the help of an immigration attorney. After much searching we decided on Lawrence R Holmes, there were cheaper alternatives available on the web, but none that looked/sounded as trustworthy or professional after contacting them. Once we signed the agreement we were assigned our own specialist, Yvonne, to assist us in our application from start to finish. We certainly could not have done this without her constant help by phone or email. From small queries to bigger problems, we both found her to be efficient, knowledgeable and helpful throughout our case. Our K1 visa has been approved with no problems and I am now set to enter the USA in the following month! I will certainly be re hiring them to help with the adjustment of status (green card) once we are married and settled in the USA. If you are considering applying for a K visa I cannot recommend this firm enough, without their help I am almost certain we would not have got to this stage at all! Our thanks from Richard and Victoria
