Good advocate

I first came to Bhakhari sir 23 years before. He guided me and refused to take my case. I returned back to him couple years before. He guided me honestly and accepted my case. I am happy to say that I now get lawful status. Bhakhari is knowledgeable and best to solve complicate cases. I been to many... lawyers. He is the best.

Good advocate

I hired ASHWANI bhakhri law office some six years before to handle my immigration case. I received excellent service. No trouble in communicating with the attorneys or staff. I had attorney before in New York who did nothing for me. Bhakhri sir knows the law and make the things work for the client.

Great lawyer and a great human being

I have no words to thank Mr. Bhakhri for his great work. I had previous lawyers. They got me nothing. I was disappointed. Even lawyer Jobe could not do anything. He is still a good lawyer. But attorney bhakhri is exceptionally good. I do not think anybody could get me green card. Bhakhri sir is shar...p in his work

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.
