Application for fiance visa and green card

I hired Lawrence Holmes to help with the fiance visa and green card. We were assigned Carolina Vargas and she was so helpful in filing all of the documents and guiding us through the procedures and helping us prepare for the interviews. We are very grateful for her professional help because we could ...not have been able to get through the process. Now we are looking forward to receiving the green card. I would not hesitate to recommend this firm to anyone.

Great Work!

My wife and I have been working with Mr. Holmes' firm since 2010. They walked us through all the applications and fillings with ease. She finally got naturalized last week and is waiting for her passport! Great job by Yvonne and Lawrence Holmes !

The customer service was outstanding! And the whole process was very fast! I would highly recommend hiring this office for a...ny immigration needs.

The Most Professional and caring Firm

I chose Mr. HOLMES firm right after a call that I had placed to his office discussing a K1 visa. At the end of the conversation I Knew confidently that Holme's firm is what I would be comfortable with. He explained every thing and taking his time and came across as a straight shooter right of the sta...rt . I was not even charged any money for all the generous consultation that he extended to me. My case was assigned later to Ms. Yvonne who I have so much admiration and respect for her due to her diligence , care , friendliness , rich knowledge and professionalism that I had honestly never seen from a law firm. This lady handled my case so well and successfully with so much love and care that has blown me away. From the time we filed for the k1 visa to my fiancé's arrival took 3 months and a few days. Yvonne was always so available with her advice and resolving specific issues that I had felt my case is being handled with so much genuine care. She is an asset to the firm and to all clients that are being cared for by her. I really feel lucky for doing business with Holmes firm and most importantly being handled and cared for by Yvonne. I never felt out of the loop , I was always well informed by her and well advised. I remember on a late afternoon she dedicated and sacrificed her personal time just so she can answer my concerns and that was the day before my fiancé's interview in Abu Dhabi. Without her help we probably could have not had a successful interview. I am so grateful to Holmes firm and specifically to Yvonne. Well done Mr. Holmes for having such qualified and caring people for your clients. You guys are the best in the business of Immigration matters.

Amjad & Carla

Speaking from experience, we strongly recommend you do not try to go through the immigration process without hiring a lawyer. A good law office will help you through this difficult, challenging process and stay with you until you have your Visa in hand. We were so blessed to have chosen the law off...ice of Lawrence Holmes and helped through the process by Yvonne. She is truly the best! She guided us step by step, was very, very supportive and stayed in close contact with us throughout the whole process. Yvonne, you really are awesome and we thank you from our hearts everyday.........
