I cannot recommend Sharif Silmi highly enough for their outstanding work in securing my EB1A visa approval under the business category. From the very beginning, Silmi demonstrated a deep understanding of the EB1A requirements through lens of business value and crafted a strategic approach tailored tomy unique case. What stood out most was his ability to think critically and strategically. They meticulously analyzed my professional achievements and business contributions, identifying the strongest evidence to build a compelling case. Their attention to detail and thorough preparation ensured that every aspect of my application was flawless. Throughout the process, Silmi & Sima was incredibly responsive, professional, and supportive. They patiently addressed all my questions and concerns, making what could have been a stressful experience seamless. Thanks to Silmi law's expertise and strategic approach, my EB1A petition was approved without any issues. If you’re looking for an attorney who combines deep legal knowledge with a results-driven strategy, Silmi is the best choice.

Embarking on the EB1A route is no small endeavor. The application process demands not only a detailed and comprehensive petition, but also an in-depth understanding of U.S. Immigration law and a well-articulated presentation of the applicant’s extraordinary achievements. I recently had the privilegeof working with Mr. Sharif Silmi and his phenomenal team—namely, Meerim, Maryrod, and Marylaine—to secure an approval for my EB1A petition. Before I found Silmi Law, I had spent countless hours researching the intricacies of EB1A requirements. I read about the need for strong evidence, recommendation letters from prominent figures in my field, extensive documentation of accolades, and a narrative that would compellingly show my contributions and future prospects in the United States. Even though I came into the initial consultation with a fairly robust understanding of the EB1A criteria, I knew I would need expert guidance to present my qualifications in the most persuasive manner possible. Within minutes of our very first meeting, it was clear that Mr. Sharif had a profound understanding of the EB1A category. He asked me targeted, incisive questions about my background, my achievements, and my future aspirations. He was transparent about the challenges we might face, as well as the strengths of my case. In discussing timelines, strategies, and possible roadblocks, he exuded a calm confidence—reassuring me that although the EB1A process can be rigorous, I was in highly capable hands. From the very first consultation to the triumphant moment my petition was approved in under ten business days, the entire journey was nothing short of outstanding. The service I received was part of a “white glove” package, and while it was indeed on the expensive side, I can unequivocally say it was worth every penny. The expertise, dedication, and personalized care I experienced set a gold standard for what I believe legal representation should be. One of the aspects that truly impressed me was the Sharif’s meticulous approach to creating and following a comprehensive roadmap for my EB1A petition. In our first substantive meeting after the initial consultation, he presented me with a detailed outline of what the coming months would look like. What I appreciated even more was how this roadmap was not just a theoretical exercise. It served as a living, breathing document that guided our collaboration. What truly impressed me was how they seized every opportunity to transform a potentially modest achievement into a powerful piece of evidence by carefully contextualizing it. They taught me that success in an EB1A petition often lies in the details—the ability to show not just that you have accomplished something, but also why it matters and how it aligns with the statutory criteria for extraordinary ability.As we neared the final submission date, Sharif and his team kicked their meticulousness into high gear. It was time to assemble every piece of documentation in a way that was both logically organized and visually clear. Since EB1A petitions can often reach hundreds of pages, it’s crucial to ensure that each document is labeled, indexed, and tabbed for easy reference.Once everything was verified, the petition was shipped off to USCIS. Although it might sound trivial, the confidence I felt at that point was overwhelming. I had zero doubt that we had presented the best possible version of my case.Thank you for your patience, your brilliance, and your dedication to your clients. I will be forever grateful for everything you did to make my EB1A dream a reality. This chapter of my life has ended in celebration, but its lessons and the gratitude I feel will remain with me always.

I had a bad car accident for there first time ever back in December 2023. Kirk Rankin and his wonderful and amazing associate Bach-Yen did so much for me. They were able to help with getting the needed chiropractor treatment, car rental to get to work and home, and full repairs on my damaged car. Bach-Yen is who was assigned to my case and her patience and professionality is impeccable. Though I had a million things keeping me busy with work, Bach-Yen was consistent in following up with me and trying to get best compensation possible. She took the time to explain how the case I was in involved works and always asked if I had any more questions. They are very clearly on your side all of the time and not focused on their bottom line. I hope I do not need lawyer for situation like I need one in the first place, however if I do... I know exactly I can call and rely on.

From the moment I read the heartfelt statement on their website—"No judgment, just help"—I felt a spark of hope. I had spoken with five different attorneys, each offering their best advice, yet my complex situation was weighing me down so much that peaceful sleep seemed like a distant memory. In that dark moment, I felt an overwhelming surge of gratitude toward both Attorney Frank and the kind fifth attorney who, after offering her sincere consultation, referred me to Morris Magulies LLC and mentioned Frank's name. I called immediately and was warmly greeted by a receptionist whose professionalism and empathy perfectly embodied that "No judgment, just help" spirit. Although Mr. Morris wasn’t available at first, when I explained the urgency of my circumstances, she promptly relayed my message. By 5:00, I received a call from Frank himself, and our conversation was nothing short of transformative. His profound legal insight and genuine care shone through, easing the heavy burden I carried. Listening to Frank, it became crystal clear that his level of knowledge and understanding transcends the norm—he truly stands apart from his peers. With heartfelt respect for all the attorneys I encountered, I can say with sincere conviction: if you’re in need of help, reaching out to Attorney Frank Morris is the next step you should take. Trust me, you’ll be grateful you did. Remember—"No judgment, just help." Thanks again Frank!

I had a very complicated immigration case, having come to the United States in 2005 from the UK and marrying an American citizen, but criminal record I received years earlier in the UK had thrown a real spanner in the works. My previous two attorneys were happy to take my money yet I still found myself with nothing but an i-130 and two denials for adjustment of status. Rachel came highly recommended and although I have more or less given up in 2021 I decided to give it one more try. By 2012 my marriage had failed, and I found myself separated from my wife. Rachel took her time to understand my case, she went away and strategized as to how we would move forward, and made sure that she laid out her plan clearly as to how we would present our case. Rachel literally showed me in the immigration law book the specific laws which we would use in our favor in order to win the case. Not once did this lawyer give me false hope, but at the same time she was compassionate and confident in our plan. We submitted an incredible packet to immigration, (I had lots of homework to do here together information, letters from people and proof of military service from family). Rachel is a real stickler for making sure that the file submitted to immigration is 100% in order, without errors and without any unnecessary pork. We submitted the file in May of 2022.. Fast Forward December 3rd 2024... I was approved to my green card... After 19 years of all the stress that comes with not knowing what the future will hold for me and my young family.... Rachel, Bianca and the entire team at this law firm are amazing, to the point where Bianca even went to meet with my wife to get papers signed in order to get the packets submitted in a timely manner!! To say that Rachel changed my life is an understatement, and I regard her as family. If you have an immigration issue, did you have that gray cloud hanging over your head everyday, go and see Rachel.

I was hurt at work. What do you do when you worked at the ONLY local hospital??? NO local lawyer seemed to want to take a case against their local hospital. (Makes sense … Where would they go if they needed a hospital? There is only ONE!) It was recommended that I seek a lawyer in the bigger city … then I call the city lawyers and they tell me to contact a local lawyer. Not being a fan of ping pong I felt completely lost!!! I had a very difficult time finding a lawyer due to “preexisting conditions." Who doesn't have back or neck pain? I fell so lucky to find Marc. He is easy to talk to very down to earth.

Words cannot describe how much Mr. Mathew Glinsmann and his team helped my husband and I. After over 15 years and several lawyers I was blessed to stumble upon Mr. Matthew Glinsmann; I believe through a google search. Prior to this, I wasted a lot of time and a great deal of money paying lawyers whowould talk with me and were readily available until they received their payment. Once they received their payments in full they were all hard to reach. I would end up moving onto a new search for a lawyer as there was no communication nor progress. The first lawyer I used I was referred to me by a hospital that was willing to sponsor me for a work permit and green card. I got the work permit with no problem, but things started going wrong with the green card application. Immigration told my lawyer and myself the wrong paperwork had been filed and said lawyer argued she had done everything correctly. Needless to say she was later disbarred as a lawyer. This is public knowledge through a search of her name. I shared all this to help you appreciate the night and day difference between Mr. Glinsmann and his team. Mr. Matthew Glinsmann read and reviewed every single document that was ever filed with immigration for me. On our first meeting he knew my case inside out. I did not struggling to explain anything and he actually helped me understanding what was done, what should have been done, and what went wrong. He was then able to advise me on a path attain my green card. Mr. Glinsmann needed a lot of documentation from me. It was stressful getting everything together but his team kept me on track by routinely following up on what was needed from me until my file was complete and ready to send to immigration. They stayed in constant communication by phone, email, and text. This helped me keep on track with documents needed and timelines. I never ever chased them for anything not a single time. Mr. Glinsmann and his team sincerely and diligently work for their all their clients. Lawyers like Mr. Glinsmann and his team are not readily found. If you or someone you know needs an immigration lawyer I recommend you reach out to Glinsmann Immigration; husband and wife are both immigration lawyers. Mr. Matthew Glinsmann was my lawyer. He is honest, thorough, extremely knowledgeable, and an expert immigration lawyer. Mr. Glinsmann has changed my life and that of my family forever. I am so grateful to Mr. Matthew Glinsmann and his team. Thank you Nyasha

At the first consultation, Adam exhibited a profound understanding of immigration law and a genuine commitment to my case. He took the time to carefully explain the intricacies of the process, addressing all my questions with patience and clarity. He has thought strategically and has provided solutions in challenging situations for the past five years. Even after I left Maryland, he continued to work with me. He is very reliable and client-oriented. His expertise was evident as his firm navigated the complexities of immigration and legal requirements, ensuring that all documentation was meticulously prepared and submitted on time. Also, his staff was very supportive and responsive. Thanks to their dedicated efforts, my petition application was approved smoothly.

I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Frank, Mr. Delaney, and Mr. Garcia for their exceptional support and guidance throughout the submission of our I-485 applications. Thanks to their efforts, my family and I have received our green cards. Initially, I was skeptical about them, as I didn't know much about them. However, upon reaching out to them, I was impressed by their prompt and cordial responses. They went above and beyond in addressing other issues I encountered, providing assistance that I believe no other attorney could match. Their unwavering support and prompt replies throughout the process were invaluable. One standout feature of working with their small team was their consistent responsiveness; if one team member was delayed in replying, another stepped in to ensure timely communication. Working with F&D has been an outstanding experience. My sincere thanks to the entire team, and I wish them all the best.

My wife and I found the professional in legal services that eased the fear of estate planning at The Law Office of Sandhya Tulshyan. In short, we were provided with, not only, detailed instructions but VERY thorough explanations in each section of our Living Trust. Most impressive during the process, we can honestly say it was not just a template process. Ms. Tulshyan appeared very concerned of our understanding in total process. She asked more questions that we did. Our intent in visiting The Law Office was to find someone to help us get a trust for our family. She far exceeded our ask in providing the product. Our explanation here isn't a truly reflection of our experience because to reach each reader is almost impossible. Yet, you will receive a product that is actually created by you with professional guidance but more geared for you being the decision maker. Perfect approach. In closing, we could say if you have a true motivation to create an estate legacy with your true wishes, visit The Law Office of Sandhya Tulshyan and be prepared to create your exact wishes.

I had been trying to create an estate plan for myself for years from various resources I’ve seen online, then I saw a post on Sandhya Tulshyan’s Facebook page about a free seminar for estate planning. I immediately signed up. The webinar was fantastic! The scenarios of what can happen without an estate plan was scary and it reminded me why I need to get this done right away. I worked too hard to have my assets tied up in probate or lost. After the webinar, I attended a free consultation to see what she had to offer. She offered every aspect of estate planning that I could think of and more. For instance, she offers templates for you to document your final arrangements, personal property distribution, filing your mortgage deed of trust, and instructions for funding your trust. During the consultation she reviews the price and payment options. The process was quick and efficient, and she was pleasant and very responsive to any additional guidance I needed. To top it off, I left with a nifty personalized binder with all my documents so my family can easily access it. By completing my estate plan I’ve reduced the burden on my loved ones, which gives me a profound sense of relief. I would recommend Sandhya Tulshyan to all my family and friends. Thank you so much.

I highly recommend Bangudi Law for all your immigration needs. I had a short notice interview and they were able to take my case the same day and assist me with the paperwork in a rush. They followed up with me during the whole process. My application is now approved and I’m so grateful for all theydid for me. Mrs Maya Bangudi is very professional and really cares about her clients.

I nearly lost hope but, lawyer Bangudi was very helpful . Talking to Franklin who I directly consult him with any questions and other issues concerning my immigration case lord I nearly tried another lawyer . But something inside me which I know it’s the voice of God saying , Girl ,don’t loose hope . I kept her and her team especially Franklin who I speak directly to with any questions and I get answered right away. I said to myself she’s a family lawyer and also who deal with immigration issues , I would have to keep her and her comes the surprise Franklin called me with the Good News Your case had been approved and Congratulations. I screamed so hard saying , Thank You lord. He also said , this is the most difficult case they have ever dealt with and never heard before and I told him the same I also did not understand what was going on with my case . I’ll always say , God knows why certain things happen. Thank you Lawyer Bangudi and your Team especially Franklin who so helpful . I will recommend Family and Friends to you . Guys , you got to be patient and God works his own ways .

Ms. Bangudi and her team were not judgemental. They patiently explained the immigration process. Assisted me with completing forms and answering all questions that I had. On the day of the interview she was right there. I was so nervous but she put me at ease with her confidence and knowledge of the immigration system in the US.

Attorney Murthy is an esteemed immigration lawyer. Not only is her knowledge of the immigration law is outstanding but she is also a very compassionate and a very genuine professional willing to give the most trustworthy and candid advice. Attorney Murthy is able to hand hold a discussion and help in explaining the possibilities of going down the wrong path. Also very explicitly puts forward the best course options to pursue and leaves no iota of doubt in addressing any and all your questions. Attorney Murthy is very humane and profit motive is not her guiding principal and is very passionate about her work and was willing to give 110% of her professional knowledge in helping me better understand how I needed to pursue my goal of achieving my immigration. Also advised me when I should start the process and what all documents and finances I need to fulfil. This proved very promising for me and my wife and we feel 100% confident in chartering our immigration journey. I have received my employment based Immigration from The Murthy Law firm in 2005 and their service and dedication was so rewarding and caring that now 16 years later I did not hesitate to call them and sought appointment with Attorney Murthy. After my brief consultation I can say that nothing is left to chance and you are left fully satisfied and charged to pursue your process in professional and authentic manner. I am so grateful to Attorney Murthy in going beyond and reflecting on my case by providing concise and crystal clear suggestions for my daughter on how to approach her immigration as well. Thank you. I salute Attorney Murthy's GENUINESS.

I consulted Mrs. Sheela Murthy to seek second legal opinion on my case after consulting another attorney who failed to provide me the right advice and take up my case. I had no hopes of carrying my case forward. But Mrs. Sheela Murthy analyzed my case in a comprehensive manner and suggested a route plan that I could take. This demonstrates her extensive experience and wide range of practice. Not all the attorneys develop this sort of skill-set. The type of advice that Mrs. Sheela Murthy provided me is something I never thought it was practically possible as I had made an extensive research and asked few seniors about the possibility in my case. When I consulted her I could feel the vibes of her broad knowledge and practically applying the knowledge on an individual’s case. My consultation with her is definitely a life changing advice that I received from a future standpoint.

"I had urgency to solve my immigration problems, and I called different law firms in my city and nearby places. Some lawyers gave me an appointment and then called me to cancel, saying they had no time or availability. I couldn't wait any longer and eventually decided to go to Google to look for immigration lawyers. I found Fintus Immigration Law Group; I saw enough positive comments about them and that they had represented people of different nationalities, Asians and others. There were also many positive comments for lawyer Stefan Akorli. When I contacted them, they gave me a quick response and from that moment, the whole process was easier. I thank the firm for all his support, honesty and integrity and because choosing Fintus Immigration Law Group helped me have a quick, successful immigration case and I especially thank my attorney Stefan Akorli: he is polite, educated, very human and an excellent immigration lawyer. I would hire him again and I am so happy to say that I give 5 stars. To finalize, I just want to say to my attorney, thank you again for helping me and my husband to resolve our case quickly!

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
