Amazing service!

Thanks to Attorney Wang, Attorney Trent and Legal Assistant Ms. Miao Ling for their help. My asylum application interview was passed. Ms. Miao Ling is very rigorous and careful in her work. She carefully reviewed every document I submitted. The interview training provided by Attorney Trent was also v...ery helpful. Attorney Trent's closing statement was very good, and it provided legal grounds for my case. This also helped me get my interview approved. Attorney Wang was always available every time I called, and his email replies were also very timely. I felt relieved to have my case in their hands.

Excellent service

I came to the U.S. in 2019 to pursue a master’s degree at a seminary. At the same time, I noticed that the environment for religious faith in my home country was worsening. Upon a friend’s recommendation, I found Attorney Wang and submitted my asylum application in August 2020. I still vividly rem...ember the first time I walked into his office. I asked him only one question: “Can I avoid lying?” He slammed the table and firmly said, “Of course, you must not lie.” At that moment, I knew he was the right attorney for me! My faith of over 20 years has never allowed me to speak a lie. Even though my case was not filled with bloodshed or violence, I wrote my declaration with complete honesty. Next, Ms. Miaoling’s professional guidance and meticulous work gave me great confidence. Following her instructions, I prepared all the necessary documents and began the “long” wait. My first attempt to expedite my case in 2023 was unsuccessful. In 2024, I tried again, and finally, I was scheduled for an interview in January 2025. With the new administration taking office, everything became even more uncertain. However, I firmly believed that the God who led me to the U.S. and the professionals He provided for me would prepare the best possible outcome. During this time, I am especially grateful to Attorney Wang. With his keen legal expertise, he quickly found the relevant laws that allowed my son to receive free tuition while studying at the University of California. Finally, the interview day arrived. The four-hour interview completely drained me—I could only mechanically respond to all the interrogations. I felt that my performance was mediocre. But at the last moment, Attorney Gong’s professional closing statement felt like a lifeline, giving me hope again. After what felt like an eternity of waiting, on March 8th, I finally received a letter from USCIS. The moment I tore open the envelope and saw the word “approval,” I fell to my knees at the doorway, crying out loud—thanking God for His faithfulness and feeling deeply grateful for this result. If anyone reads my comment, I want to say: Seek the Lord Jesus—He has been searching for you for so long! Seek out Attorney Wang—he can truly help you. May God bless Attorney Wang’s work so that justice can be a help to those in need! And may everyone seeking in the U.S. find what they are looking for!

Asylum court wins

Today, I passed the 45-minute trial for asylum, and I am very grateful to Mr. Wang for his professionalism and responsibility. "I am a Christian, and I did not believe in the Lord because I wanted asylum. However, in court, I found that the immigration lawyer's questions were very sharp and difficult... to pass without professional preparation.". Lawyer Wang's preparation is in place, not difficult, often encouraging and comforting, making people feel at ease. Finding a reliable lawyer is too difficult because no one has many opportunities, and we don't have much time to wait. In matters such as immigration, it is necessary to find a reliable lawyer such as Mr. Wang. Thank you to all the staff of Lawyer Wang's team!

My asylum case approved, I’m glad and proud that I choose them to be my attorney.

My asylum case has been nearly four years hanging like sausage with other attorney in NYC. My friend suggested me this law office,after I moved to Bay Area, they took my case , and worked carefully, clean up all the mess and mistakes my previous attorney made . And within one year I finally got inter...view &approved . Regret I should’ve move my case earlier. Lesson learned! My experience with them was amazing, Every team in the office is knows what are they doing, they are very professional, and unlike other money hungry attorney your case matters to them , they will take a great care of your case , I am so thankful to find this attorney office , attorney Wang and Steve are the best And very experienced. Attorney Trent Goulding who accompanied to the interview with me is also very professional, I got two interviews . I gotta say he is absolutely amazing. Also legal Team ling is very kind and professional. Overall my experience with them is absolutely amazing. Now I’m thinking if I choose to this attorney office two years earlier, I might hold my green card by this time , Again , your case matters to them . No matter what race what religious what color you are . From the time you step in the office,your case matters to them , they help you all the way they can . But please Don’t expect to get a big smile , and maybe cup of tea , or even maybe whole lots of warm conversation , They are helping you for your legal matter . Do trust them like I did , you will get a good news pretty soon .

Professional and Helpful Lawyers

Due to history of forced abortion in China , We submitted the application for asylum . We hired an unprofessional immigration consultant to prepare the relevant documents at first. Because of the inadequate preparation and many inconsistencies in the interview, The case was denied at the immigration ...office of SF in November 2019 .We got the information of lawyer Wang via online search. Lawyer Wang is patient and very precise in his analysis of the case. And communicated with us many times before going to trial which took place in April 2022. Because of well prepared and the truth of the persecution itself, the judge granted our case in less than 40 minutes. Many thanks to lawyer Wang and his group!
