Amazing attorney

Nancy, is amazing . She is great at her job, and is very communicative. I have been impressed since the beginning by her expertise. She handled my case with professionalism, and I can only recommend her to anyone who needs a good attorney. Plus, she has helped my sister, and did amazing things for he...r , and her husband. After that , my sister recommended her to me saying only good things about her work ethics. Thank you so much Nancy.

great immigration lawyer

We worked with Nancy for my Mom's citizenship case. We reached out to her when my mom had received a letter from the USCIS that there was an issue with the date of application. She carefully listened to us and then answered all the questions that we had. I even remember that she didn't even charge us... for that. Then we worked with her and 6 months later my Mom became citizen. She is very caring and lovely person.

Nancy Whitehead is a professional, caring lawyer

Nancy took my husband by the hand and led him through the immigration process. She helped him pass his citizenship test with flying colors! We owe his success to her thoughtful, caring support through the entire process. I know she will do the same for you!

The best Immigration Attorney!

Nancy walked my family through every step for adjustment of status process. No ugly surprises (Only good ones :) ) My husband and I knew exactly what was expected of us. Nancy was always available for a chat. Any question was answered instantly. For our interview we had to drive to another state, and... Nancy was present on the phone for the whole duration of the interview. Interview itself was about 15min and we were notified that green card will be approved the same day. We were stressing and worried and Nancy calmed us down, explained exactly what to expect and reassured us that everything will be ok. I did not fully believed it until it was over :) It truly was not as scary as I imagined ( Thank you Nancy for filling out the paperwork for us, that would of lost me!) We stressed a lot, but the end result was worth it! We will be reaching out back to Nancy for citizenship process just in a few short years. Would recommend Nancy for everyone who is in similar situation. Nancy was absolute pleasure to work with.
