Citizenship and my son Green Card

I hired Mercy to obtain my Citizenship and later also to process my son Green Card application. Mercy was very detailed oriented, answered all my emails and assured me that the whole process would run smoothly. I obtained my citizenship in 5 month and after that I my son got his Green Card in 6 month.... It was not the cheapest but I was very pleased and happy with my experience, so I would recommend Mercy to anyone who requires legal advice and visa applications.

E2 Visa

My employer hired Mercy to process an E2 visa for myself. It took a couple of weeks to get my visa interview at the US embassy, the process was very smooth and I received all my documents in time. My application was approved and I got my E2 visa. I was very pleased and happy with my experience and... would recommend Mercy to anyone who requires legal advice and visa applications.

GC process with Mercy

We hired Mercy to process Green Card for both my parents - they are born in India before 1950s and do not have formal birth certificates. Mercy helped us patiently with the process and recommended the right set of affidavits we should prepare. Our parents received their GC approval without interviews... in 4 months time. Thanks to Mercy, it has been a really smooth process. Especially with the forms and documents we had to deal with. We were extremely pleased and happy with our experience and would recommend Mercy to our friends and family.

Reliable attorney, compassionate, great service

I have been working with the offices of Mercy Sequeira for over ten years. I first had contact with her offices when my employer filed my H-1 B visa on my behalf. at that time I lived outside the country. Mercy was very detailed oriented, answered all my emails and assured me that the whole process w...ould run smoothly. I lived outside the country at the time my H-1B petition was filed. Mercy Sequeira was always available by email to answer all my questions and help myself and my family procure our H-1B visas to enter the United States. Over the years she represented me on my H-1B extensions and then for my green card, the whole green card process took several years as a result of the backlogs. I finally was able to file my adjustment of status. She represented my wife and children in their adjustment of status as well and thanks to her hard work, my whole family including myself became permanent residents. We eventually applied to become U.S, citizens and she represented us during the process. I can proudly say my whole family are U.S. citizens now thanks to her hard work. We couldn't be happier with her service and are grateful for her kindness and compassion during this very long and stressful process. We are all now proud U.S. Citizens and highly recommend her to others. She always gave us her time, put our minds at ease and was very reasonable with her fees.
