Shelley J. Kalita

My consultation was very stressful with Kalita , she just pass under review my business, the birth certificate and all papers that I had like all was fake . She given me very negative comments and interviewed me more like she is was a immigration officer more than an lawyer . I paid 250$ for to liste...n someone a front of me who was telling me that because I don’t live with my husband so my petition will be denied , she doesn’t seems to find any another solution for me she just talked to me about denials and how I could opened a business in USA being foreigner without greencard . This consultation was so stressful and a big waste of time where I had to justify myself more than to get advice from a lawyer that I paid 250$ after all negative comments and after she wanted to no more about my online shop !! I just couldn’t talk more to this woman as it looks like she already made her judgement and accused me of mariage fraude just because my husband live more at my place than me at his place and we waiting to get a new place which was difficult for me to justify and to explain . 250$ in the trash .

We contacted Shelley with what other lawyers had deemed a "very difficult case" and were asking so much money for. We had an initial 30 minute phone consultation which ended up being about 45 minutes and a face to face 1 hour consultation that ended up being close to 2 hours. We didn't feel pressured... at all to make a decision but with the information that she gave us, we were confident that she was the best. Her price was very reasonable and she was very lenient with payment terms which we appreciated a lot since I was 9 months pregnant with no income. It took 6 weeks from when she filed our "very difficult case" to having green card in hand. My husband and I are very grateful that Shelley took what would have been a very frustrating process and made it very easy. Our only regret is having wasted time calling other lawyers. Thank you Shelley!

After a long search for immigration lawyer with so many disappointments and bitter experience. My wife and I eventually met Shelley who made our dream come through. She cares and considers her clients more than money. She is very professional and detailed in all that she does. Shelley, indeed is an ...immigration lawyer you should contact for any immigration issue.

I wanted to tell you how touched and impressed my wife and I both are of your management and resolution skills in our disastrous fight to have my wife Mariya let back into the US. I hired 2 incompetent lawyers over a 2-year period who took my money but never took responsibility, through sloppy work c...aused us 3 1/2 years of emotional hardship. Every time I called you answered my concerns and every issue and roadblock we ran into got immediate attention by you. This is not normal but the characteristics that separate you from too many lazy and incompetent lawyers. I can say thank you but that is never going to be enough. I want to thank you so much for your diligence and perseverance. You’re a unique and very special lawyer who I would recommend to anyone. I called her from Thailand one day. It was 9pm on Friday night in Chicago. She was out with friends at a concert in Chicago. She actually walked out of the concert and called me back in Thailand.
