Immigration to the USA

I work overseas and married to a Filipino. I found David Murray's site online and contacted him to take our immigration case. Mr. Murray responded to my emails and agreed to take the case and detailed out the process we were starting. Over the past year Mr. Murray has taken care of all the paperwor...k and paid the online fees. The work done was never questioned during the process and was without mistakes. Mr. Murray was in constant contact with me during the entire process, even I was never in the USA. My preferance was to communicte threw email and our entire process was completed with no problems.

Long time friends

We have known Dave and Juita for about 10 years and have enjoyed an amical relatioinship as a tennant and client for a property tranaction. His work was responsive and comprehensive and timely. We value his and Juitas friendship a great deal.

Obviously, Roger intended an Excellent rating, but due to the way AVVO sets up their responses it is possible to make a mistake and click the first star, which shows up as Poor, rather than the last star which is Excellent.
