Citizenship application for self/ Parents permanenct residency

I was recommended John by a friend who had used his counsel for her permanent residency application. John helped me with my citizenship application and later also helped with my parents application for permanent residency through consular processing. My parents case was difficult due to lack of their... original birth and marriage certificates and even my birth certificate. Thanks to his expert advise, both my parents got their papers. I really like the fact that he charged a fixed fee for the case and helped all the way to the end.

Most honest lawyer around!

It's hard to find a good lawyer these days. Most will give you empty promises and lead you down a confusing road. Not Mr. Nelson which is a very bright and honest man. If he knows he can help you he will tell you straight up. There are a lot of frivolous attorneys out there. Don't let anyone take you...r time and money. Mr. Nelson helped me get my citizenship when I thought I was going to get deported! Go see Mr. Nelson - you won't regret it.

Great experience

John Nelson came recommended highly from a colleague that used him for the labor certification process years ago, and I'm glad he did. John's time estimates and assessment of my PERM case were accurate and insightful and the process went smoothly. I recommend John Nelson wholeheartedly.
