professional and outstanding immigration lawyer

Pooja Regmi helped my parents with their asylum cases. She handled everything in a professional way.In doing so she has made it clear that she is very skilled and has many years of experience. From the very start I knew there was something different about how Pooja handled cases as opposed to other ...lawyers. Everything was very carefully planned and ensured success from the very start. She never pressed us to meet a deadline, she would make sure that everything was completed in a timely manner. When we first met Pooja she was very nice, and courteous. Whenever we needed to ask her anything she would always pick up the phone. Pooja provided top-notch service in my parents cases, for a more reasonable price than other lawyers. If we hadn't hired Pooja we may have not won the case. Words cannot describe how happy we are to have lawyer like Pooja handling our cases. If you ever need a lawyer that will alleviate all your problems, then I highly recommend Pooja Regmi.

Great, knowledgeable, very friendly and helpful Attorney

Pooja A. Regmi is very detail oriented, open and helpful. She has very deep and thorough knowledge of immigration tactics. I'm very glad and thankful to have her as my attorney. My case was complicated due to the fact that my spouse was denied at port of entry. We tried couple of times for visa but... got denied both the time. Finally, I went to Pooja. Practically speaking, she was my last resort. We discussed the case and she agreed to handle the case. After that everything was a breeze. She took care of everything. All I had to do was to provide documents. She was always available for consultation and direction. She was very helpful and professional. I would highly recommend her as great professional help.

Excellent Immigration Lawyer

I was referred to Ms. Regmi by a friend. I live in North Carolina and I have actually NEVER met Ms. Regmi in person. However, I trust her and her work. She is everything you want in an attorney - she responds to emails and phone calls, she provides monthly case updates via email, she maintains ope...n communication lines and is truly doing this work because she clearly cares about people. Several years ago, she successfully obtained a green-card for me under exceptional ability, which many people said was very difficult to do. After that, I found it was so easy to work with her. She spoke Nepali and I appreciated her patiently explaining things to me and providing clear information about my case. I hired her again, despite having other attorneys in North Carolina, because I trust her work. She successfully worked with me to bring my family from Nepal. In the midst of my pending case, the horrible earthquake hit. Ms. Regmi worked tirelessly and endlessly to ensure my case moved and became a priority as I was very desperate to see them and have them join me. I recommend her whole-heartedly and would recommend her to anyone that needs an immigration attorney.

Honest, good quality legal advice

Pooja Regmi recently helped me apply for an Immigrant Visa for the US. I was very satisfied with the service I received from her. She took me through all the steps before I made the application and then was very communicative throughout the process to make sure every step was completed correctly. I w...as particularly pleased with the approach she took to explaining all the potential issues so that I was always fully prepared for the responses from the authorities. She was always clear on risks and possible delays and I appreciated her honesty during what was a very administratively slow process. For my interview at the embassy Pooja prepared several extra documents just in case extra evidence was needed. This was very helpful as I was able to go into the interview and deal with any questions. This well prepared approach definitely prevented further delays to the process.
