Status Before Becoming a Resident: DACA Age: 30 Criminal Record: Arrested for a felony but never convicted Last Entry into US Type: DACA with Advance Parole If you are a considering starting the process of applying to become a permanent resident (PM) and you are looking for a Lawyer who is ho...nest, knowledgeable, and very reasonably priced you should hire Ashkan. I hope this review will convince you why you should stop your search and go with Ashkan. I decided to go to him based on several factors including online reviews, price, knowledge, and empathy towards his clients. I have had several experiences with lawyers during my entire process of becoming a permanent resident. During each stage of my immigration process I went to a different Lawyer. The three different stages I went through were my initial application for DACA, my application for advance parole, and finally adjustment of status to become a PM. By the time I was ready to apply to become a PM I was very familiar with what the process would entail. That knowledge helped me vet several lawyers before I met with Ashkan. During my initial consultation with him I was able to determine that he was a lawyer that really cared about his clients and wasn’t looking to over charge me for his services. He impressed me so much that we signed our contract that same day. Facts About Me I came to the U.S. when I was about 4 years old without documentation. I have grown up in the U.S. and was a pretty good kid growing up. I have only had one run in with the law. When I was in high school I stole something from a public park that ended up causing about $500 worth of damage. Since this was my first offense the arresting PD decided to give me community service in exchange for dropping the charges. As a result of this I currently show one felony arrest on my criminal record. This arrest record has made things a little difficult during my entire immigration process because despite what people may think USCIS does do their due diligence and they have always requested documentation of what happened. Lucky for me I was smart enough to keep the documentation proving that arresting PD did indeed drop my charges. So I have been able to get DACA, advance parole, and adjustment of status. Process of Becoming a Permanent Residence Ashkan was able to help me file my application for adjustment of status. He recognized that I despite my arrest record I was a perfect candidate for adjustment of status. For me I was able to adjust because I was a DACA recipient, who had been granted advance parole, left and entered the country with inspection and finally married to a U.S. citizen. The whole process took about 8 months. Ashkan did an amazing job helping me through the entire process. I would like to say where he really shined was with the interview. His knowledge of the process and his relationship with the immigration officials as the Santa Ana office made the whole process very easy. He gave me the best advice, which I would like to share with you. If you are in a real relationship you have nothing to worry about. That turned out to be very true because I got approved for my green card that same day! I would like to end this review by saying if you are fortunate enough to be able to apply to become a permanent resident then the best thing you can do is hire Ashkan. Doing so will probably be the best decision you can make.

Hi my name is Danny. I strongly recommend Mr. Ashkan Yekrangi as a very responsible and patient attorney. He helped me and my wife with the process of residency and get me to the USA as a permanent resident. He was very active and helped us in every way we needed him. He has a lot of knowledge about ...immigration laws and how to manage different situations according to each case. Personally, I am very thankful with Mr. Ashkan for all his help, without it, it would have been impossible to fulfill our dreams and go ahead with out plans. Now, my wife and I are living our dreams of continuing with our marriage in the U.S. I just can say thank you very much and all my respects for you and your important daily work. You changed our lives and words are not enough for all the amazing job you did for us

I went to six consultations before I chose Ashkan. I didn't choose him because of his free immigration consultation but because I felt he was the only person who sounded like he knew what he was saying. Yes, he's young, but he had a drive the others didn't . I at least met him and talked to him. ...Two years later, almost three, what I thought was a major issue is now resolved. Yes it took patients and to be honest sometimes I was upset I thought he wasn't pushing hard enough but in the end he did what he promised. I rarely review people for doing their jobs. Ashkan went above and beyond. he's the opposite of a lawyer in a good way. My cousin owes him his freedom.
