Attentive to detail

It was several years ago, over 10, when I had my immigration work done. I remember the day I went for my final interview and I was told that I was rejected because of a change in the law. However, Mercy knew that the law had not come into effect as yet (or was it the other way around). Anyways, she c...alled the office in Pittsburgh and had them review my case. I was called back and approved.

Very professional, Experienced and knowledgeable Lawyer

I've known Mercy for 6 years. She helped me on my H1B (New and Renewals), My family H4 and Green Card Processes. Very professional and responsive. With her Excellent knowledge and experience she makes the process simple and easy. On the first visit she explained clearly about the whole process, answe...red all the questions I have. Even During holidays i was able to communicate with her regarding my questions on GC prepration (Birth Certificates, Affidavits and translation, etc..). She provides prompt update on the case status on each stage as soon as she receives from INS. Mercy provided me valuable tips and advice for my H1B Visa stamping interviews, which helped me to go for stamping at Chennai consulate without any tension. And her fees are very reasonable, I am really impressed. She is the Best and I would truely recomend Mercy Sequeira to anyone.

Mercy is highly professional, efficient and extremely knowledgeable in the area of immigration law. People in my network have talked about the revisits you may need to immigration attorney office to accomplish your tasks, but Mercy makes the process look so easy. With her knowledge and tremendous... expertise she asks for all what she needs upfront saving a lot of time to go back and forth for completing documentation and sets right expectations for outcomes. She is a highly recommended immigration attorney.
