Bad experience

I paid $150.00 for a consultation with this lawyer, but had a very bad experience. After taking my money, he informed me that he was not taking any new cases, which made me wonder why he took the consultation fee in the first place. As an immigration attorney, he lacked knowledge about J-1 and H-1B v...isas and was uncertain about the J-1 waiver process. I even had more knowledge about the subject than him as a potential immigrant. Therefore, I cannot recommend this attorney for H-1B visa related matters.

My wife's waiver was approved

My wife's waiver was approved and she will receive her green card soon all because of Sunil's hard work. We were not happy with the lawyer we hired before hiring Sunil. Our first lawyer handed usover to the paralegal after they took our money. We hired the lawyer, not a paralegal. My cousin recommen...ded Sunil and we were excited to hire him when we meet. Sunil doesn't hire paralegals or assistants. He himself does everything. He answered our questions throughout the process and was very quick to return emails and provided simple explanations to our questions. He even let us text him questions on his personal phone. Sunil is special and sets the standard on how an attorney should work with clients. The attorney fees are not cheap, but sometimes you get what you pay for in life and Sunil is worth every penny.

Best lawyer

We hired Sunil after spending thousands on our previous lawyer (big name law firm) who filed the wrong paperwork and gave us bad advice. Once we met Sunil, he explained the process to us and told us how he would help fix our old lawyer's mistake. We had to pay Sunil to fix everything and we didn't ge...t our money back from our old lawyer but Sunil was well worth the money. My wife now has her unconditional green card and we are very happy with hiring Sunil..

Sharp as a razor

As the VP of a tech company I correspond with Sunil on a regular basis for his immigration advice. I have worked with his previous employer for well over 10 years and I have never received such thoughtful comprehensive guidance from any other immigration attorney as I do from Sunil. He is beyond comp...are. He is sharp as a razor. I depend on his expertise to make crucial decisions. He keeps us on our toes and I know that when I ask him for his advice, he will be clear in his thoughts, he will tell us what the law says and he will provide solid opinions and guidance that keep us in compliance with the law. He is unafraid to scold us should we stray off the path and I respect that. He is passionate and compassionate. Sunil’s value to my company is incalculable. He is welcome to come and work for my company in-house anytime. He knows that, but I think he is too busy helping too many people :)

"I have had the pleasure of working with Sunil in the same firm in the past. Besides his dedication to updating himself with all the knowledge required to practice immigration law at a high level of competence, he brings a set of moral values and compassion for his client that makes him stand out from the crowd. Any client he deals with can be assured that they are in very goods hands. If he is giving you advice you do not like it is because he is being honest with you and will not cut corners. He is someone I would trust my own clients with if I was unavailable myself for some reason."
