A Long Journey Finally Comes to an End — Thank You, Attorney Wang!

Our case was finally approved today after nine years! We are beyond grateful to Attorney Wang and his wonderful assistant Miao Ling for their professionalism and dedication. From our first consultation, I could tell Mr. Wang truly knows what he’s doing. He quickly identified the key issues in our ...case and guided us with clarity and confidence. He is sharp, organized, and truly cares about his clients. Before the hearing, he prepared us thoroughly with several practice sessions and constant communication — even emailing late at night to make sure we were ready. During the four-hour hearing, his quick responses and strong arguments turned the case in our favor multiple times. Miao Ling was also amazing — patient, detailed, and always supportive. She kept everything on track and made a stressful process so much easier. Truly an outstanding, trustworthy, and caring legal team. Highly recommend!

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!

Professional immigration Law Agency

The case was approved yesterday! Mr. Bowman is a great lawyer! He has a lot of experience. He can speak English as well as Chinese! In court, the translator made some translation errors, the judge was confused, and the government lawyer attacked me with this error, but Steve Bowman pointed out that ...the key word was a translation error, correct the error! It is important that your lawyer is fluent in both your language and English! It is so painful to worry about my immigration situation every day, especially when USCIS rejects my case and takes my case to court. Makes me feel even sadder. Then I found Baughman & Wang, Attorneys at Law. With your expertise and experience, I was worried that the case would be delayed because of the video issue. The government lawyer wanted to delay it, but you told the government lawyer that you didn't want to delay it. We waited, and it became OK. When the judge was confused, Steve Baughman saved me with his experience. I saw the judge was very confused by my first answer, but he explained and asked me again. Thank you very much. I really want to thank you: Steve Bowman By the way, I really want to thank Lawyer Justin, Lawyer Trent for helping me move my case forward by two years! 2 years early! You're a professional! Assistant Miao Ling, get my things ready, call me often and tell me what I need to do, comfort me. Professional law firm. Pay for what you want. Get what you want.
