Professional Immigration Advice

Janell was wonderful, efficient, and uncommonly scrupulous. I found Janell as a resource late in the process of bringing my fiancée to the USA from China to get married and live here. The process was complicated and took a long time. When we thought we were almost there, we got an rfid in reply t...o our adjustment of status application. That’s when I sought professional help. I was referred to Janell and contacted her. She gave me clear advice as to how to respond to the rfid. I drafted my reply and she even looked it over for us. Since it looked good and the case was straight forward, she said to send it in and contact her if any more issues came up. We got our interview a few weeks later and then the approval for the AOS just yesterday, we couldn’t be happier! I only wish we had found her earlier in the process since she clearly could have saved us a lot of time and worry, on retrospect trying to do it ourselves to save a little money cost us much more in the end. Go with a professional to save time and for the peace of mind!

Reliable and Knowledgeable

When I first met with Janell I had no idea what steps to take in order for me to fix my immigration issues. I told her everything regarding my situation. The case was weak and she did not promise me anything which I understand. She took my case regardless and did not charged me a lot for her professi...onal fee but still helped me all the way until we got the results we both wanted. During the process, she would always answer my questions/emails or even call me when I asked her to reassure me that she is there for me and to alleviate the anxiety that I feel. It took a year before we got the result we wanted but everything went smoothly because of her. She is empathetic, reliable and knowledgeable in her field. I will always be thankful that I found and hired her as my lawyer. She helped me a lot more than she knows.
