Change of Status - Case Approved

They helped me with my change of status and my case was approved. The team guided me through both the initial case preparation and the RFE process. Pradeek knows what he is doing. He is smart, capable, and thorough. Working with him feels like being part of his team, preparing the docs, collecting... evidence. He reviewed every detail, went back and forth with me, and made sure everything was ready before submission. I’m grateful for their help and would gladly recommend them to anyone going through a similar process.

Thank you so much!!

My marriage-based greencard application was approved at record speed after filing the application with Attorney Susheelan! As a same-sex couple in the current administrative climate, we were very anxious but he handled our case with so much wisdom and care. To Attorney Susheelan, my partner and I ...sincerely thank you for all the work you & your team put in for our case and giving us attentive care and well-rounded advice throughout this stressful process. We are so grateful to you, and we wish you all the best for all your future cases. Thank you again, Attorney Susheelan!!

Relationship: Co-worker

"Pradeek is truly an outstanding immigration lawyer; particularly in the areas of family-based and non-immigrant visas. There is no one else who I would trust more to handle a visa-related matter than Pradeek. Whenever there is a visa-related question I cannot handle on my own, the first person I call is Pradeek and, without fail, he provides me with an effective solution to my problem. In addition to his encyclopedic knowledge of immigration law, Pradeek is an excellent legal researcher and writer who has tackled some very complex issues in the nexus of criminal and immigration law. Finally, and perhaps most importantly, Pradeek is a compassionate individual who cares a great deal about all of the clients he is representing. I highly endorse this lawyer."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
