True Dedicated Professional

I hired Ilona to represent my case in the Imigration court back in 2016. At that moment I got denial from USCIS about my immigration status and my case was submitted for consideration to an Immigration Judge. I definitely did mistake not hiring Ilona back in 2014 to represent me at USCIS. After Ilon...a took over my case, thing changed. She got under control each aspect. She told me what exactly to do and when to do. They submitted all my paperwork on timely manner and all the process was smooth, without any disruptions. We prepared for the action. Believe or not, you have to have strategy, depending on many factors. Ilona got all details covered. She is totally knowledgeable, confident, truthful and helpful. I've been taken care so much by her and her team and as a result I was granted my immigration status at earliest date possible. It's not easy to live life, when you depend on someone's decision and don't have clear path and don't know, where you will end up in several years. Ilona helped me to make it through and helped my fresh start to happen. I am excited to live in the US. I am excited about all new perspectives of living here, which I didn't see before. Thank you, Ilona, thank you the Team!

Professional and talented attorney

I strongly recommend Ilona Dzhamgarova as a highly professional attorney who is willing to help even in such situation when many other attorneys told me my case had no chances to be won. I am grateful for her humane approach which i read about prior to my first visit and which i had a chance to confi...rm myself. I am grateful to my friends who recommended me to retain Ms. Dzhamgarova for my immigration matter because today i received my permanent residence status
