This is the worst law firm ever, I waited 1 month for an appointment to meet Rekha crawford after reading rave reviews everywhere. I went to her office for her appointment and paid the fee and waited. I saw her say to the front desk I have a meeting and she just walked out although she had an appointment with me. I couldnt believe my eyes, I asked the front desk. They told me she had a meeting, I told then I have been waiting for 1 month for this appointment but she walked out. They said I would have to wait and didnt know how long. I said I couldnt wait and would like to see somebody else but no one was available. Ultimately I had to take my money back and drive back home, My time, effort and gas wasted. I hated this experience, disappointed to know that all these good reviews are just fake. The front desk staff were so rude and treated me like I was an illiterate layman who didnt have anything else to do but just wait for no reason.
Edit: She called me back in an hour and scheduled an interview for the next day. They also waived my fees, overall she did talk to me and explain me things for free. Its unfortunate we got off on the wrong foot.

They don't return calls, they will give you excuses and they have the worst office staff. They delayed my case for 3 to 5 months at the end of the summer. They delayed my case again in December for another 2 and 1/2 months. When you ask a question you don't always get answers. When you do your part they will not do their part. The lawyers didn't do my paperwork or even represent me. They gave it to the office staff. I've called several times and no call back. Anything these people tell you will most likely be a lie. They told me they would call me when it was time to file the 2nd portion of my case which didn't happen. I got called in November asking why I haven't called and I was told not to call they would call me. They could have filed in July. I asked in December if they had what they needed from me and they said yes. I came back at the end of January from vacation and they needed "more paperwork/information". They charged me around $2500 to represent my case during the 2nd portion. They never called, they didn't represent and then placed the blame on me. They are some of the worst and most lousy people. If you do have them represent you, get everything in writing and make sure it's all broken down. Also make sure your fees and receipts are detailed with what you will receive as a service. Make them break it all down.

Being from the UK people presume that the Immigration process is easy and straightforward but it is not. Have been working on my daughter's Green Card for almost 9 years. Tried to work with other Attorneys who advertise themselves as Immigration Attorney's but totally fell short including the last one who gave me totally the wrong information and told me we would still have a long wait. That was at the end of 2015.
Something told me that I should get a second opinion so I contacted Sharma-Crawford. Oh what a big difference. Professional, helpful and just totally awesome is the only way I can describe them.
From the moment you contact them they work with you on everything. When you go to their office the staff is extremely friendly and helpful. They kept in constant contact with me and Michael was excellent. Michael filed my daughter's application and went to the interview with us. We left the Immigration Office with huge smiles on our faces and we couldn't have done it without Michael and his team.
If you are looking for an Immigration Attorney, look no further as you have found the best.

Michael did a really good job for me. He was so nice to me and my family. He told me that he would try and help me but that i would have to cooperate and if I did, then he thought we could fix my case. I did everything he asked me to do and he fixed my case! As Michael told me, "it will both of us working otherwise one of us is dragging". I got that. Thanks Michael.

I highly recommend Michael Shama-Crawford to anyone seeking an honest straightforward and affordable immigration attorney. Our story is too long to go into great detail. But I will give you the shorten version.
My husband and I have been married for almost 18 years now and we applied for his green card in 1999. After many inquiries and a lot of money spent on 4 different attorneys’ in Illinois over the years, with still no decision made, it was very frustrating. During this time, my husband had gotten DUI’s on his record, but also went into recovery, so we thought all was good. We checked with the Chicago immigration office in March to inquire the status of our application and we were told that our “application was still pending”.
A little over 2 months later, our house was surrounded by ICE agents who took my husband into custody for “overstaying his visa” and held him for deportation processing without bond in a Missouri jail for 31 days!
I was so stressed and didn’t know what was happening or where to turn. I contacted Michael Sharma-Crawford, who immediately responded to my cries for help. He walked me through what was happening and what was needed from me, in the form of paperwork, etc. Michael was able to get a bond hearing quickly within a month and was able to get my husband released from jail.
A few months later, Michael represented my husband at his trial and was able to get him his long awaited green card!
The best thing about Michael Sharma-Crawford as an attorney is that he doesn’t give you false hope or make promises that he can’t keep. He simply tries his hardest to get the best outcome of whatever situation is presented to him. That’s all anyone can ask. Can he work miracles? In my opinion… YES!
All I know is that we could not have accomplished any of this without him. What had taken us over 16 years of waiting for, Michael accomplished in 6 months!
He is an amazing, caring attorney. We are forever grateful for his guidance, expertise, time and effort he put into our case.

I contacted this office because I was referred to them by a few friends who had dealt with them. The initial consultation went great, and that is why I booked an appointment for Michael to work on my case of bringing my fiance to the US. Paid $1000+ in lawyer fees and he reassured me that I will have to do nothing once the process gets going. After we filed, I alone followed up with the case. Once it goes approved, I contacted NVC on my own. I had to contact the embassy on my own to correct an issue the lawyer made a mistake on. Once it was filed, we were literally on our own. I contacted the lawyer for advise, but he never gave me any real advise and didn't help me at all. A few months after the case was approved and AFTER my fiance received his visa, I was contacted by the law office to ask if we wanted to proceed past the approval stage. I made it very clear to them that I worked everything out ON MY OWN and if I had waited for them, the petition would have expired. Very disappointed that we spent all that money when we could have just dealt with it on our own. If this process had gone better, I probably would have gone to them for the Green Card process, but forget that. Going to save the money and do it on our own. Thank you for nothing, Michael.

I called Michael for help with my immigration case. I had gotten into some criminal trouble and my criminal defense attorney told me to call Michael right away. Since I am not a citizen of the United States, my criminal defense attorney told me that I would need to understand how my criminal charges could be an issue with my ability to stay in the US. I was really scared. Michael took the time to answer my questions and then worked with my criminal defense attorney to resolve my case in a way that I would not have any trouble with my ability to stay in the US. I have learned my lesson. I won't be getting into any more criminal trouble, but I can't thank Michael enough for what he did. I was finally able to sleep at night once I spoke with him. A lot of people told me not to worry because the criminal charges I was facing was only a misdemeanor, but Michael helped me understand that it does not matter when you are not a citizen. I am glad my criminal defense attorney, Tom, told me to call him. It made all the difference.

Michael is an excellent attorney. I am glad we found him. I live in New York where all the attorneys charge a lot of money to answer even the smallest question. My friend recommended Michael to me and I was able to talk to him on a phone consultation (which cost nothing compared to the rates in New York). He answered all my questions and also allowed me to call back with follow up questions. He gave me the right advise and I am very happy with his services. He is really a great lawyer.
