Although it seemed like forever before the final settlement, in the end, it was well worth the wait.
Craig fought hard, advocating for me and I am more than satisfied and grateful for that extra effort that paid off.
After all the mental trauma from the crash, I can finally put it all behind me with a life altering settlement.

On 06/18/2022 , my life changed. After I was released from the police station the following day I felt alone, embarrassed, remorseful, hopeless, empty, sad and clueless as to how I was going to face my new reality. That day I was taught a big lesson that I will never forget. As a kid my father told me that two of the most important dates in someone’s life are, when you are born and when you find out what you were born to do. My dream and goal in life was to be a public servant as a firefighter/medic; thus, I always tried my best to maintain a clean record and contribute to my community. I achieved my dream and served my community proud, but that dream was short lived. For the last two years my life has been on stand by and every time I hear a siren on the street my heart shatters. From the moment I first spoke with you Mr. Levin I knew I had chosen the right attorney with the right team; you and Jon and all your staff gave me hope during a time of uncertainty. I will never be able to thank you all enough for how hard you fought for me. Today, my life has changed again but in a different way. Thank you again for fighting for me so that I can get my life back as well as fighting for me dream to become a firefighter again, it is people like you that motivate me to be the best version of myself. I will write a review for you all and with my hand on my heart I thank you again.

The experience with Brudner Law has been very positive. When meeting with the Lawyer Yael Brudner she took her time to go over the process with us and made us feel comfortable during our consultation. Vanessa and Miriam have guided us through the process and explained everything along the way. We want to thank them all for everything that they have done up to this point. We recommend the Brudner Law firm for all your immigration needs.

I had a great experience working with Ron. He is very knowledgeable in the immigration field. He was diligent in his work, and stayed in constant communication with me.

I highly recommend you hire him for your process, you won’t regret it!

I had the pleasure to work with Mr Kamran over the last few years. He was very helpful throughout the immigration filing process for request in changing status to US permanent residence. He provided guidance and prepared the interview carefully. He also challenged me to properly explain any questions as immigration might ask. At the end, the immigration interview went great and I was approved for US permanent residency. Once again, thank you Mr Kamran.

Mr Rob was recommended to me by a friend and I'm extremely glad that I went with this recommendation. Although this process is intimidating he was extremely patient, explains the process clearly, and makes you feel comfortable throughout the whole process. His use of apps to assist with the case made my understanding and made the information more accessible. He will see the case till the end and make sure you are taken care of. I would like to thank Mr. Ron and his staff for helping me with my case and I would wholeheartedly recommend his services to anyone in need.

Mr. Kapesh Patel is an outstanding attorney, I was very excited and confident to have a childhood friend since 1988 to represent me. He helped settle a complicated dissolution of marriage when things were not looking good for me. I started my case with a different attorney who clearly could not handle my case properly, I was heading into my 3rd year of back and forth with negotiations. I knew it was time to bring in a professional, I reached out to Mr. Patel and subbed him in as my new attorney, after a few short months Mr. Patel reviewed my case, and was able to settle with the opposing counsel for a fair settlement. I was very happy with the outcome and the support that Mr. Patel offered me during this difficult time. He was always available and ready to answer my questions. I will always be grateful.
I would highly recommend Mr. Kapesh Patel for your family law legal matters; he will work for you.

I don`t even know where to begin! My wife and I are completely overwhelmed with gratitude and respect for Mr.Khurgel and his team. I had a long 22 year journey with immigration which has finally come to an end. When my wife and I got married in 2022 we began to look for attorneys and we knew my case was not going to be an easy one to take on. We consulted with three attorneys prior to Mr. Khurgel and none of them were willing to take my case. I had given all hope that my dream of receiving a green card would ever come true. I know now why this happened, simply because God always has a plan and He knew we needed someone who could fight for me! Mr. Khurgel took us in and mapped out different scenarios for us, but most importantly told us there is hope! We left his office feeling hopeful but truly scared of what future held for us. I had a status of withholding od removal since 2007 from Immigration Court in Orlando, Fl. Mr Khurgel said, it`s a miracle you are still in the United States. This meant I had a triangle of hurdles to get through and it was going to be a long bumpy road. The biggest hurdle was reopening my removal order and having it dismissed. I knew I had had to have a knowledgeable, detail oriented, absolutely no room for mistakes and attorney Khurgel went above and beyond to meet those needs. He never once hesitated to answer my phone calls when I had doubts or concerns. He always made my wife and I feel heard, understood and respected. Mr. Khurgel`s knowledge, expertise, dedication and genuine commitment to my case has made my dream a reality! I will be forever grateful, thankful, appreciative and blessed by his commitment to us. This has opened up a whole new world to my wife and me and we will never take it for granted.

Mr. Bridgman is extremely professional. I am dealing with a serious legal matter and he took the time to listen to my case and gave me excellent advice. Bruce's priority is his client's best interest. He explained to me that he wanted me to first see what the outcome of my matter is before stepping in as this would be unnecessary if it is resolved. I greatly appreciate Bruce. I highly recommend Mr. Bridgman, thank you so much!

I was referred by a friend to Bruce and his law firm. Bruce and his staff helped me with resolve a family law case matter related to an old judgement where my ex husband was in contempt of the court order.
Working with Bruce made the process so seamless. My first consultation was free, and Bruce was so diligent in taking the time to thoroughly and carefully listening to the details of my case he narrowed down a strategic plan. He explained the details of the plan and explained the step by step process of my my case. Bruce was extremely attentive throughout the process and was able to resolve the case quickly which resulted in us not needing to go to court and settle the case and thus saving me money and time that otherwise would be spent.
Bruce is a great professional, ethical and extremely knowledgeable and knows what he is doing. He is prompt and quick at getting things done and I really appreciate all his help with my manner. I highly recommend him and will definitely come back for any legal needs in the future.

I worked with Aycan on my both E1 and Greencard process. She knows every detail in every process, there’s nothing to say. I highly recommend Aycan if you’re moving to a new visa type, greencard or passport, I’m sure you’ll have a smooth process.

I have first come across to know her when i need to apply for E1 visa from reference of a good mutual friend. Addition to that, i had few visa rejections in the past which later i have learned that was due to inadmissibility issue which was determined by her. That was first strong signal which Ms. Aycan has built confidence in me that she is the one can get this job done straight. She is like a perfect surgeon whom diagnoses correctly so that in order to know how to cure.
Later, through dense and complicated stages of E1 visa application which interrupted and delayed for almost 2 years due to pandemic, Ms. Aycan was determined, dedicated, fully cooperative and supporting through all these times until finally interview date given at early of this year in early February 2022.
After long time waiting and hectic preparations, at interview unfortunately i was denied due to interviewing officer misinterpretation and misunderstanding of E1 visa qualifications.
Ms. Aycan has done fast assessment of this denial. She disputed to it by sending emails twice to the consulate asking reconsideration of their decision. This hasn’t worked unfortunately. The consulate asked us to reapply. So did as advised. The second interview has been settled for four months later in early June of 2022. This time fortunately i was interviewed by a visa officer whom did right assessment of the case. And, finally i was approved for 5 years E1 visa status. The interview was long and sweaty one. However, i was prepared well like a student studied well to pass final exam.
Behind all these efforts and success story, there was definite team work of my attorney Ms. Aycan, my employer whose put many hours of workload submitting sponsor company documents and joining zoom meetings, and myself whom prepared well and fought to the end.
And Ms. Aycan was mastermind and architect of this success. She has set exceptional role model how an attorney can be and should be. She hasn’t only worked for this case, also she has fought until to the end as she said after first interview denial “I am there and will fight to win as long as you tell me stop”. Truly, she has delivered his words to most extent by heart and all meanings she has done.
Ms Iskent has demonstrated exceptional knowledge in immigration law, superior communication , and a very close follow up.
Again, thank to her being my attorney. She is not attorney alone, she is a fighter of law if it is righteous cause.
She is an attorney ,whom you can reach directly when she is needed. If you have any case, do not hesitate to hire Ms. Iskent because she will be there for you at all times.

Sunita has helped me to navigate the process of becoming a permanent resident first and a citizen later. She is extremely knowledgeable, professional, caring and honest. I always felt she had my best interests at heart and wasn't focused on $. Sunita has made this difficult and confusing 'immigration journey' very easy and was always there to answer all the questions, give an advice or just calm my nerves. I could not be more grateful for all the work she has done for me and would not hesitate a second to hire her again, if ever needed.

My wife and I have working with Sunita for over fours at the time I’m writing this on November 2020. We had heard claims that many people were able to navigate this seemingly simple process in the past all by themselves. We decided to play it safe and consult an expert in October 2016 because we didn’t want to risk making a mistake.
We had no idea how many different paths to residency and citizenship existed and we certainly had no idea how much the legal landscape was about to change. Sunita has helped my wife gain legal permanent residency and is currently helping us through the process of naturalization and we and beyond relieved to have her continued guidance and emotional support. This is a long and stressful process and we’ve had to make compromises (like missing funerals for family members in her home country) in order to stay the course. Make no mistake, there are figurative land mines all over this path and Sunita helped steer clear of them all. My life, my wife’s life and our marriage are where they are today in part because of our decision to ask Sunita for representation. She returned emails quickly, explained the process many times, was on time, met commitments, gave clear instructions on assignments, provided feedback and made sure we didn’t step on any land mines along the way. We’re forever grateful.

When I met Sunita my immigration situation was little complicated. I wasn't entirely hopeful. She took the time to explain everything to me, which gave me hope. It wasn't an easy process, but she guided me through it. She was extremely thorough and careful. Slowly....we went through the steps needed and I ended getting my Permanent residency. 3 years later I still used her services for my citizenship, even though I had moved away from S. California. I highly recommend her, as she is cautious, thorough and knows her stuff!

Attorney Atoosa Vakili is a true Angel sent by God. She did outstanding legal work in our immigration case and our daughter.
If I had to recommend a lawyer to anyone, it would be Mrs. Vakili without any hesitation.
My journey to becoming a permanent resident has been a very stressful one, but after my wife and I hired Mrs. Vakili, she laid everything out for us and helped us every step of the way. We started from nothing, and Mrs. Vakili worked very hard with us, even though we had less than a month to prepare. She was available any time we needed her (even on holidays) and always made sure we were on top of what we needed to do. She treated us like family, guided us through this case, and gave us a lot of life advice because we are just a very young couple who needed a lot of help. Mrs. Vakili was there for us in more ways than we can even imagine, and we are so thankful that we met her and could work with her. We both agree that this was the best decision we have made by far. She is passionate about her cases, just as she was with ours, and was determined to come out of it successfully. She gave us the hope and confidence we needed when we thought we couldn't do it anymore. We recommend her to anyone that needs immigration service, and we are delighted that Mrs. Vakili represented our daughter and us.

I contacted Attorney Momal regarding my K1 fiancee visa. Several issues I was concerned with my application and especially issues with more proof to the US embassy of my sustained income.
Miss Momal was very accommodating and gave me many option to visit her office in Montebello, CA.
After my first office appointment she was able to point out very efficiently what is need and how to finalize my K1 application.
Miss Momal also offered and gave me the option to wright an explanation letter to US Embassy but mention to me that I can formulate that letter myself as well.
I will definitely return to her for more counsel if needed.
Her first 60 min was at no charge ( as she claim in on her profile at Avvo.com )

Thank you, Evelyn, for successfully getting my I-526 approved!
Thank you.

Called Mr. Nelson to write a waiver letter to the US embassy in Yerevan Armenia, as why I want my mother in law to get her immigration visa to join my wife here in California. He charged me not much! But thereafter, anytime, I called him, he spent quite good time on the phone. He never turned me down for my questions. He was sometimes in meeting. But he retuned all my calls. You will not feel stranger with this gentleman. He is knowledgeable and he is always stay side by side with you. His office staff are friendly and helpful, when he was on vacation. I recommend him to any one. My mother in law came in to California on 10/22/2019 with green card visa. One call you will think you know him for ever!

I hired a different lawyer previously and because - like many new clients - I relied on big firm advertisement, every time I called the office for questions, instead of talking to my lawyer, I was mostly talking to his assistants/paralegals. And when I finally get a hold of my lawyer, he was clueless of my case.
I had a totally opposite experience with Sean Yuan. At first glance, you'll most probably felt hesitance to hire Sean Yuan as your lawyer because he doesn't own a big law office or has a big poster advertisement on newspapers. But from my experience, it meant every time I picked up the phone with questions, I spoke directly to Sean instead of his assistant.
He helped me through H-1B application and eventually LPR's application.
He is very knowledgeable in his area expertise and maintained a good line of communication with his clients. He prepared each application and procedure properly. He patiently explained each procedure and all possible outcomes with the case . He is not one who only promised all positive outcomes in a case (as we all know US immigration can be so complicated these days), but he also laid out the risks/possible negative outcomes, so his clients fully understand both sides of possible outcomes.
I would recommend Sean Yuan's service to anyone who need help with immigration's law. As the matter of fact, I also hired Sean for my mother's LPR application.
Thanks for all your help, Sean!

From the very first introduction, he has shown compasion and empathy towards resolving the issues in my case. I highly reccomend Rajiv to anyone that is in need of a friend and a champion to fight for thier interests.

Noha handled my Bankruptcy this past year 2016 . She explained the different types of bankruptcy and costs associated with them before I proceeded after calling her firm. During the total process she notified me about what was to happen and kept things in order before appearing in court. They use a very efficient system to keep track of records and paperwork. It was a very smooth filing of my bankruptcy and helped discharge all of my debts which qualified. I would recommend her to anyone needing legal help in a bankruptcy filing. She was very honest and positive about my case.

My first encounter with Global Immigration Partners started with my H1-B processing. The pleasant experience with James Gotcher was definitely the reason why I continued my Greencard process with GIP Team. I am certainly very pleased with Danielle Gotcher & Benjamin Brueggemann. My process was very long with the Covid immigration ban. Even so, Danielle & Ben were always there to answer my questions & support me until I finally got my visa immigration for permanent residence. Thanks so much for all your help that I can be in the US now!! I greatly appreciate all you've done, Danielle & Ben :)

I could not be happier with the RAPID, ROBUST, and friendly assistance from Doug Kirk. My case was pretty open-and-shut, but when you're terrified and time is of the essence, you need ACTION. Doug knew exactly what to do and was aggressive as could be. VERY SATISFIED, without giving away confidential details, we seized defendants assets and cash, and then won a judgment almost double the theft, secured with a trust deed to the defendants house. Plus I really enjoyed working with him and was sad to say "I can't even say I hope I never work with you again..." HA HA

After talking to more than 20 lawyers, I finally chose Mr. Kim as my defense attorney. He is so professional, compassionate, and decent. He carefully analyzed the details and developed the best coping strategies based on his former DA perspectives. He always responded to the update of my case ASAP, sometimes even on weekends or evenings. Despite my English is not that good, he deliberately slowed down his pace and carefully listened to every word I said. Mr. Kim's efforts resulted in my case a surprising outcome. He is really a treasured lawyer and the only one I would recommend.

What an Immigration Lawyer Can Do for You
An immigration lawyer specializes in helping individuals, families, and businesses navigate the complex immigration process. These lawyers provide legal guidance on various immigration matters, such as obtaining visas, gaining permanent residency (green cards), applying for citizenship, and defending clients in deportation or removal proceedings. Immigration lawyers also assist with employment-based immigration, asylum applications, and resolving issues related to visas or immigration status.
Whether you're trying to immigrate to the U.S., facing deportation, or sponsoring an employee or family member for a visa, an immigration lawyer can help you understand your legal options and navigate the often complicated legal system.
When Should I Hire an Immigration Lawyer?
Hiring an immigration lawyer is beneficial in many situations where you are dealing with U.S. immigration laws, whether for personal or business reasons. Common reasons to hire an immigration lawyer include:
- Visa applications: If you need assistance applying for a visa, whether it's a work visa (H-1B), student visa (F-1), or tourist visa (B-1/B-2), a lawyer can help ensure the application is properly completed and submitted.
- Green card applications: If you're seeking permanent residency, an immigration lawyer can guide you through the process, whether through family sponsorship, employment, or the Diversity Visa (lottery) program.
- Deportation or removal defense: If you’re facing deportation or removal from the U.S., a lawyer can defend your case in immigration court and seek to prevent removal.
- Asylum applications: If you’re seeking asylum due to persecution or fear of persecution in your home country, a lawyer can help you prepare a strong case and file for asylum.
- Family reunification: If you're a U.S. citizen or permanent resident looking to bring family members to the U.S., a lawyer can assist with the family sponsorship process.
- Citizenship and naturalization: If you're ready to apply for U.S. citizenship, a lawyer can help you navigate the naturalization process and ensure you meet all the requirements.
- Business immigration: If you're an employer seeking to hire foreign workers, a lawyer can assist with employment-based visas, labor certification, and compliance with immigration regulations.
- Special immigration categories: Immigration lawyers also handle complex cases, such as visas for victims of human trafficking (T visa), crime victims (U visa), or those seeking Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
Hiring an immigration lawyer early in the process can help you avoid delays, errors, and possible denials due to incomplete or incorrect applications.
What Does an Immigration Lawyer Do?
An immigration lawyer provides a wide range of services to help clients with their immigration needs, whether personal or business-related. Their tasks often include:
- Assisting with visa applications: Helping clients fill out and submit visa applications, ensuring all documentation is complete and accurate.
- Filing for green cards and permanent residency: Guiding clients through the process of applying for a green card, including family-based, employment-based, or other forms of residency.
- Defending against deportation or removal: Representing clients in immigration court who are facing deportation and working to prevent removal from the U.S.
- Preparing asylum cases: Assisting clients in applying for asylum based on fear of persecution in their home country due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
- Handling citizenship applications: Helping lawful permanent residents apply for naturalization and ensuring they meet all the legal requirements for U.S. citizenship.
- Employment-based immigration: Assisting employers with the process of sponsoring foreign workers for temporary or permanent visas, including H-1B, L-1, and EB-1 through EB-5 visas.
- Representation in immigration interviews: Preparing clients for immigration interviews and attending interviews at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) offices.
- Appealing denied applications: If a visa, green card, or citizenship application is denied, a lawyer can file appeals or motions to reopen or reconsider the case.
How Are Immigration Lawyers Paid?
Immigration lawyers generally charge for their services based on the type of immigration case and the complexity of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:
- Flat fee: Many immigration lawyers charge a flat fee for specific services, such as preparing a visa application, green card petition, or citizenship application. Flat fees help clients know upfront what the legal costs will be for a particular service.
- Hourly rate: For more complex cases, such as deportation defense or appeals, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and the complexity of the case.
- Retainer: For ongoing immigration matters, some clients may need to pay a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as the lawyer works on the case.
- Pro bono or sliding scale: Some immigration lawyers or nonprofit organizations may offer free or low-cost services for clients with limited financial means, particularly in asylum or humanitarian cases.
It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand the costs and payment arrangements.
How Much Does an Immigration Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an immigration lawyer varies based on the type of legal service required, the lawyer's experience, and the complexity of the case. General cost estimates include:
- Visa applications: For help with visa applications (e.g., H-1B, L-1, F-1), legal fees may range from $2,000 to $7,500, depending on the complexity and the type of visa.
- Green card applications: Fees for family-based or employment-based green card applications typically range from $3,000 to $10,000, depending on the case.
- Deportation defense: For defending clients in removal proceedings, costs can range from $5,000 to $15,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case and how long the case takes.
- Asylum cases: Asylum applications may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on whether the case is defensive (in removal proceedings) or affirmative (not in removal proceedings).
- Citizenship applications: Legal fees for filing a naturalization application usually range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the client’s immigration history.
- Business immigration services: Fees for assisting businesses with employment-based visas (such as H-1B or EB-5 visas) often range from $3,000 to $10,000 or more.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of costs and fee arrangements before proceeding with legal services.
Top Questions to Ask an Immigration Lawyer
Before hiring an immigration lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your case effectively. Important questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with immigration cases like mine?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s family-based immigration, employment visas, or asylum. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a flat fee, hourly rate, or retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case and the potential outcomes, including any challenges you might face. -
How long will the process take?
Immigration cases can take time, so ask how long it may take to process your application or resolve your legal issue. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your case directly. -
What documents do I need to provide?
Ask the lawyer about the documentation required to support your case, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, or employment contracts.
How to Check the Credibility of an Immigration Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable immigration lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Check their state bar status: Confirm with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific immigration law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in immigration law and have experience handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle immigration cases.
- Check for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) can indicate the lawyer’s expertise and commitment to immigration law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an immigration lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Passport and immigration documents: Bring your passport, visa, and any documents related to your current immigration status.
- Family documents: If you're applying for a family-based visa or green card, bring marriage certificates, birth certificates, and proof of family relationships.
- Employment information: For employment-based visas, provide your employment contract, offer letter, or other documentation of your job.
- Criminal records (if applicable): If you have any criminal history, bring copies of court records and other relevant documents.
- Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any prior immigration applications, visas, or issues with immigration authorities.
- List of questions: Prepare any questions you have about your immigration case, the process, costs, and the likelihood of success.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
