Very good lawyer!

I highly recommend this lawyer to anyone who needs help in their immigration case especially those who have a difficult immigration matter and need a very diligent and good lawyer. She pays careful attention to detail, is very easy to get hold of as she returns calls and responds to e-mails very prom...ptly and makes herself very accessible to her clients at the office. She is also very knowledgeable about US immigration law and explained the process very well to us so that we could understand everything about our case. She also updated us with every letter or correspondence which she received on our case. My family and I were also very impressed with her as the immigration officer commented that all our paperwork was complete and that made our adjustment of status case so easy and really minimized our stress. I am very glad my family placed all our trust in this lawyer - she helped us maintain our nonimmigrant status for several years and finally she helped us secure our Permanent Residence through Diversity Visa. This lawyer gets 5 stars for how she handled our complicated case from start to finish.

Very knowledgeable and sharp lawyer

I was very pleased to work with Sharlene. We have worked together for 4 years now. She really helped me out in getting my Permanent Residence card and later my citizenship. Sharlene actually cares about individuals cases and follows up with clients on constant bases. She is very well oriented, resp...onsive and easy to work with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone with immigration matters. I appreciate her till this day for helping me out with my case and advice everyone to work with her.

Green Card I-485 filing for my wife

I met with Sharlene because i needed assistance in filing green card application for my wife. She had lost her status and i was not able to sponsor her because i was not a citizen at that time. Sharlene helped me filing for my citizenship so that i can file for my wife's green card. Once i got the ci...tizenship, with the help of Sharlene, we quickly gathered all the required documents and filed. Sharlene diligently reviewed all the documents before filing and well prepared my wife for interview at the immigration office. She accompanied us at the interview and guided us along the way. Having a knowledgeable immigration attorney like Sharlene was very helpful and saved me a great amount of time and interaction with the USCIS. She is very experienced and courteous. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who is looking for experienced legal advice and assistance.
