Leonard Douglas M Saunders

Oringinally back in 2014, after my son was born with my then husband, I had initially begun the process to sponsor them both for their American Perm Res Card. We are all Canadians and I had my Green Card already thru my first husband, (no kids with him). The lawyer I had hired in Los Angeles was Ala...n Klein. We started the paperwork for my son and husband, in California, for them to have residency in the US. I had taken the "one time furlough" of 2 years, where you are allowed to reside in another country other than the one you hold a Perm Card to. 2 years earlier, I had went back to Canada, and had my son in this time. My 2 years was up Nov 2016. Feb 2016, I find out my husband is having an affair. By June 2016, I found a new home in Point Roberts WA, that was affordable and would now solve my problem of living back in the US (because my son's father would not allow me to return to L.A with him). With great swiftness, I cancelled, or should I say "abandoned" his application. My son's application, however was still processing thru. I made several calls to Mr. Klein to check in, see how things were rolling along, and if any updates. Every time, I got the same answers. "Everything is coming along nicely Ms. Varnes". Let me be clear about the one major bit of info I SHOULD HAVE HAD from Mr. Klein....When my son turned 2, I (he) was eligible and could have simply crossed the border with my son and our paperwork and he would have gotten his Perm Card immediately and for free. So as the time rolled on, and by this point it was taking waaay too long for even his Advanced Parole to come. I called Mr. Klein again. I actually got to speak to him, and when I asked how things were coming along, he responded in anger, and disgusting tone like I was wasting his time. He said he did not care, and proceeded to tell me about his Mother passing away and basically what I got out of it is that he lost all professionalism and was having some kind of mental breakdown. The point with Mr. Klein. He did NOTHING!!!!! He sent nothing in, never even got started and lied to me basically for 2 years! Once in Point Roberts WA, I started searching around for a new immigration lawyer. Someone with integrity, pride in his work and professionalism. I found Len Saunders thru mutual friends. This is how he helped me... *Len immediately did my son's reapplication for Perm Res. Also adding that now our new residence was WA state, no longer CA state. *As my divorce entered the Family Courts, just before hand, my ex husband made an attempt thru the Hague Convention to terminate my sons PR application, claiming international abduction. This was a farce and a huge abuse of the Convention, however he did get me to Supreme Court. The Master called to "suspend" my sons application. (So I did nothing as it was later reviewed as " Well did the Master "terminate" the application or just suspend it? or cancel it? It was unclear.) *In the meantime of this happening, my sons final meeting was schedualed for July 5th with USCIS in Seattle WA. My second appearance in Supreme Court was July 15th. *I went to my USCIS meeting with a letter from Len Saunders to my Officer at USCIS explaining in detail the very depths of my situation and that I just needed more time to try and salvage the Perm Res card application for my son at the Supreme Hearing. I was granted an extention. *Side note...Len was always willing and available to come defend me in Supreme Court if needed, however at this point my Family Lawyer took over this end, thou they consulted often together. *I won in Supreme Court. My son was now allowed his Green Card. Leonard Saunders not only stuck by my side in all its ups and downs, and hair pulling moments. Len went above and beyond and never charged me extra. He gave me his rate, and his word and stuck to it until the job was done. Thank you Thank you <3

Len was recommended to me, and I was very lucky to have been put in contact with him. He is an all-around good guy who knows exactly what to do. When we first met, I was having trouble getting across the border. I was trying to go through the immigration process on my own using internet resources. Th...is was a big mistake because the process never goes exactly as planned. He was there to advocate for me, and without Len, I would not have been able to attend my own wedding! I was SO grateful for his expertise, and (more importantly) so was my wife. Since then, he has been there for me at every step along the way of my green card process, and I will undoubtedly continue working with Len when it comes time to apply for my citizenship. He was never more than a call or email away, and always gets back to me with answers to all of my questions. If you're moving to the US, you want Len working on your behalf.

Len helped me to renew my green card in a very professional, efficient and timely manner. My case was very unique and complicated but the whole process was very smooth thanks to Len. I got my green card in just 6 months. He was always there for me, he even drove to DMV office on his day off to help m...e obtain USA state ID. He was always one call away whenever I had a question about my case even a stupid one. I would highly recommend his service, he goes above and beyond to help you!

Len helped me through the complex process of immigrating from Canada to the USA. His expertise and endless patience with my questions, phone calls, etc., were priceless. He made a very stressful, intimidating and confusing process almost seem effortless for me and my husband. He’s very approachabl...e, down to earth and friendly. He puts you at ease immediately! I cannot say enough about Len and let’s not forget his staff! A very welcoming office by everyone there! Len definitely goes far above and beyond what you would expect from your lawyer. I would go as far as saying he has become a friend and someone I could count on if needed. If I could give him more than 5 stars, I certainly would.
