Adjustment Of Status (Same Sex Couple)

My spouse and I cannot recommend Sharlene enough! We are a same sex couple facing the known family related challenges that most gay couple are often unfortunate to deal with. Due to conflicts with our respective families, my spouse and I were concerned about the family evidence aspect of our case (w...e had very little of this); however, Sharlene was amazing to us, from the moment we walked in her office, she treated us with lots of respect and was super helpful and thorough with every detail for the case to succeed! We felt much confident upon speaking with her about our relationship and situation, which she listened to with great understanding and respect. Her main priority is taking care of your case, so you can count on her to work on a reasonable payment plan. Working with Sharlene was very smooth, and the overall experience was a blessing. Thanks to Sharlene's help with my spouse and I gathering the right documents and evidence in a timely and efficient fashion, we were very well prepared for our interview and our case was approved and GC was mailed to us upon roughly 2 weeks after the interview! We strongly recommend Sharlene! She is an amazing soul, a diligent professional and truly cares about your case. Thank you, Sharlene!!!

Highly Knowledgeable, Cost Effective, Responsive and Results Oriented Immigration Attorney

Sharlene Richards is extremely knowledgeable in the area of Immigration Law across a variety of matters such as professional visas, personal travel visas, and citizenship/green card applications. She applies this knowledge very effectively for the benefit of her clients and works long hours/weekends ...to obtain the desired results as quickly as the system will allow. We have been using her immigration attorney services for the last five years with excellent results every time. She successfully obtained multiple P3 visas for artists and performers from India for my wife’s school, in a short amount of time and at a very reasonable cost. She helped me obtain US citizenship for my mother with minimal effort and in just over 7 months. I have worked with local lawyers in Oregon and have not been able to get the amazing response that I was able to get from Sharlene ! We have enjoyed working with Sharlene as she is personable, responsive and effective, and most of all easy to work with. I would strongly recommend Sharlene’s services for anyone looking for help in either simple or complex immigration law matters.
