Merita Rice assisted my wife and I for a marriage-based permanent residency. She was very professional, rigorous and all what you expect from a stellar attorney. I highly recommend her.

Merita simplified the process of obtaining permanent resident for my spouse. Everything was clearly explained. The ease of email correspondence simplified the process. Everything happened as expected and our case was approved ahead of the expected time. I would recommend Merita and her law firm for your immigration or legal needs

Kristi and her assistant Bridget were awesome in helping me with my step parent adoption. Answered every question I had. Got back to me in a timely manor, took care of all paperwork and informed me with everything that was going on. They seem VERY organized and represented me very well.

Great lawyer!! Works hard on getting the job done and always keeps me updated on what’s going on and what to do next.

Me and my husband reached out Merita in 2017, summer time. She helped us a lot with my immigration visa. At the beginning we don't know anything about how all the processes go and Merita introduced the differences between Fiance Visa and Marriage Visa. That helped us make the best decision. She is always helpful from the beginning till I get the green card. She was very quick and patient to answer my all questions. It was a very great experience. I would definitely recommend her! Please reach out for her, you won't be disappointed!

Excellent attention to my case with great communication and prompt answers to my questions. I am very pleased with Kristi and her staff. I was well represented.

Great service provided and I highly recommend. I had a lot of questions at various times and the email correspondence was quick.

Kristi was great and I loved the online system she used for communication. Also the day of my case went great. She briefed with my before we went in the courtroom and everything turned out great :)

Mr. Canlas was extremely prepared and knowledgeable when coming to court. He had his questions lined up with no pauses and made an impressive argument.

We are so grateful to Mr. Canlas for the excellent handling of our sons case. We had to make sure the right attorney represented our son whom was not only facing erroneous felony charges, but whom had made the mistake of talking willingly to police before obtaining an attorney (never do even when innocent!) After researching and interviewing a few other criminal law attorneys,  whom were highly capable, we hired Richard by the end of our first meeting. His immediate attention and keen knowledge of the legalities of the situation and the avenues to investigate, dispute and apply the best strategy was beyond impressive! He kept my son informed and prepared and had my son's full respect throughout the time and process. 100% sure he was the best and right attorney for our son!  Mr. Canlas pursued and won a complete DISMISSAL of the case!!!  Highly, highly recommend him!!

Merita helped me a lot with my immigration visa ( Adjustment of Status to obtain green card). She helped me since the summer of 2016. She was very quick to answer my questions and it was precise. At the beginning, others did not give a price but she did! Thank you! It's good for my organization. Furthermore, she gave me a discount after my first meeting with her. I am pleased with her work!

Very helpful and friendly
