Sharlene Sharmila Richards

I just got my Green Card approved through Sherlen Richards. She was recommended by a friend who also got her Green Card through her law office. She is pleasant, thorough and very professional. You can never get it wrong with her if you follow her advice and guidance. She helped me to build and p...rocess my case and my interview was hitch-free. She is very knowledgeable about immigration process and she takes her job seriously. Above all, she is very, very affordable and she will work out payment plans that will not stress you. She has a beautiful soul! I STRONGLY recommend Sherlen!

We went to Ms. Sharlene with a complicated case of my brother in law in 2018. She did researches and asked us to come to the office following week. She explained the case situation and provided the solution as well. She also helped in my Neautralization process, her presence made the process so smo...oth. Basically you do not have to worry about process if she is handling your case. Not all lawyer work hard on your case as she does. I have bad experience of a lawyer in immigration process. You can't trust all the immigration lawyers. She is very knowledgeable and helpful and also affordable.

When someone is convicted of a crime they seek forgiveness and sympathy from the judge and jury because they know they are at their mercy. When that someone is a child and is convicted of an infraction their parents commited they seek humanity. My father brought his wife and kids to America 21 years ...ago and we as a family overstayed our visa because my Mother was in shape to travel back due to the hardship of pregnancy. After 9/11 when citizens of certain countries were asked to register, I accompanied my father as his translator to the INS office for registration. We found out about our I-94 extension denial at that office and my father was immediately put into removal proceedings. What followed that day when I was held at the holding facility along with my father for 6 hours being released on good faith was a life long battle to belong in a country I now call home. The lawyers we seeked told us the harsh reality of living on appeals but we did and 7 years later we found out the truth that yes our father is deported. The last 2 years we went inbetween lawyers and finally came to Sharlene for legal counsel. She went above and beyond her duties to make sure my father once detained for final removal was removed promently as his health was deterriorating inside the detention center. My father would've choosen voluntary departure had we had known that our previous lawyer was only going to take the money and not file the case. He suffured with finals stages of COPD. I was 19 years old amd I stayed behind but I knew then that I was going to be seeking counsel from Sharlene for life as her compassion and sympathy towards my father who was for a lack of better words on his last leg in the immigration and life realm. Time went on and DACA came by along with 2 divorces but there was Sharlene again taking on the cases for a son of a former client. She as we speak just called me an hour ago to inform me of my approval of my I-130 petition. I have been in front of an immigration judge when I was 12 as my dad's translator and after seeing how the immigration process went for my dad was the most nervous client a lawyer would never ask for. Sharlene made life a breeze for an immigrant. She knows the process in and out whether you are talking DACA, Removal Proceedings, Permanent Residency petition etc and I know this because I have choosen her for all of them and have been successful with her in all of them. Make her your choice for immigration counsel everytime because life is too short to not seek someone who will treat you like a human being and not another case.

We started this process with Sharlene in November 2019. I was on a post OPT status filing for adjustment of status by having my spouse (Permanent Resident) sponsor me. We filed our paper work in December 2019, and I'm happy to say I got my Permanent residence status in May 2021. I imagine it would ha...ve been even faster had Covid not occurred. We met 3 times but communicated constantly via email and phone. She was always quick to respond and had clear informative answers. She prepared us extremely well for the interview and when we filed the original paperwork. She went through everything with a fine comb to ensure accuracy, and reviewed everything alongside us. She helped us when we had to file an address change and she even helped us when the USCIS mistakenly requested evidence for something that didn't apply to us. She always kept clean, organized records to easily retrieve them. Overall, she definitely knows immigration law, and takes her role seriously. I would trust her in the future and will be sure to recommend her to others. You couldn't be in better hands when choosing Sharlene.
