Facing tough immigration deportation/other human rights issues, go to Law offices of Ashwani Bakhri

A long process and 10 years long battle of deportation and other issues was impossible for anyone to win over. However, Ashwani Bakhri Law Firm will not give up on their clients, stood by our side, assured us that the battle is difficult, but we will win it. Although my husband came to America as... a minor, two other Punjabi lawyers that his family had hired and trusted (being blindsided of the lawyers’ religious beliefs), was placed in a deportation proceedings along with many green card issues. We were recommended by another person to take our case to Ashwani Bakhri Law Firm who made the impossible possible. We were able to obtain our green card after 35 years of lingering around from one lawyer to another who made the case worse and worse, and Ashwani Bakhri Law Firm sorted out the mess. Therefore, I highly recommend anyone who has immigration issues go to them because they make the impossible possible, fight for human rights, and has knowledge and experience to help you overcome those challenges.

Excellent service and work done well

When you hire an attorney you are trusting him and his entire staff. I can not explain how wonderful and trustworthy his team is. My case not only was pending and ended up getting approved, but I can stay in the US without any issues! Thank you to everyone from Joe S to Ashwani, Suman, and the entire... knowledgeable staff to always be here to answer any questions and go the extra mile to helps clients out after hours, weekends, and even early mornings. It hurts to see bogus people write false information like the review below in an untruthful manner about people who are only here to help others! If you are unsatisfied please deal with the practice individually and not be writing false accusations- remember if it didn’t work out now it eventually will. Oh and don’t forget you also are sitting behind a screen falsely writing Immature gestures- you wouldn’t want that to come back to you in anyway. Timing and patience is a virtue!
