Sharlene was painstaking in her efforts and patient with our process and implementation. She moved my wife's removal case from Los Angeles, CA to Houston , TX where it was dismissed and then proceeded with Permanent Status and approved . She fielded many questions from us and we are appreciative... of her success.

Removal Proceedings Dismissed and Permanent Resident Approved!!

In the beginning God said, "God said, "I command light to shine!" And light started shinning. Attorney Sharlene Richards is the light that God commanded to shine upon my life, and she sure shinned brighter than I could ever imagined. My case literally had a little under 10 percent chance of resolutio...n and this is after 9 years and 2 previous attorneys who were unable to successfully help with my case. I had a deportation removal proceeding that was hanging over my head since 2013 after a criminal conviction and while waiting for that to happen, I got arrested again for another crime in 2018 which was later dismissed but still contributed immensely to the removal proceeding since it's still an arrest while simultaneously waiting for my i-485 application to be approved. It all seemed like a dead end, and I was just hanging by a thread until I met Ms. Richards. She made was very professional, attentive and patient from the get-go. She made sure that she requested for all documentations that the immigration court and USCIS would require for the processing of my applications. Sometimes she would call me like 2-3 times a week just to make sure that we are on the same page as her regarding submission of the necessary documentations. She'll be like, "ADEMOLA I hope you are putting together all your documents for your application. I am just checking to make sure.. Ok call me when you have them ok thank you" (LOL). She was there with me and my wife during the removal proceeding hearing in court and God used her to get my removal proceeding dismissed which allowed me to proceed with the i-485 application. After less than about a year of the application being submitted, I had my permanent resident green card approved all thanks to God and the expertise of Sherlene Richards. She is an angel in disguise. Always guiding and holding our hands all through the process. You will never feel like you're doing anything alone when it comes to dealing with her. I and my wife are very thankful for this journey and her contribution towards the success of it. Highly recommended and trusted.

Thanking Mrs Richards

Expressing my sincere gratitude to Sharlene Richards for their exceptional service in helping me obtain my green card. From the very beginning, she was incredibly knowledgeable, professional, and responsive to my needs. She took the time to explain the complex immigration process to me in a way that ...I could understand, and she always answered my questions promptly and thoroughly. I was particularly impressed with her attention to detail. She meticulously reviewed all of my documentation and made sure that my application was complete and error-free. She also kept me updated every step of the way, so I always knew what was happening with my case. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, I was able to obtain my green card without any problems. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking immigration assistance.
