Mr. Shihab saved me from deportation due to a felony conviction. My case was very complicated, but Mr. Shihab was fully on top of all the details. At the hearings before the immigration judge, Mr. Shihab exemplified what it means to be a top tier advocate. He was very knowledgeable of the law, and appealed to a sense of justice that led to a favorable ruling. He is an excellent lawyer.

I worked with Gus Shihab Law Firm to represent my wife's green card petition followed with consular processing. Attorney and team members are very knowledgeable, and responded to all my questions via email in a timely manner. They made sure all the petitions were filed and fees were paid on time, very accurate, gave the opportunity to review and impressed on how their team organized the supporting documents. We started the process right before the Covid, and my wife got her visa approved a few weeks ago. During this unprecedented time, all my concerns were taken seriously, and they provided practical solutions to it. I highly recommend Gus Shihab Law Firm to my family and friends with their immigration process. Also, I would like to thank their team for working on my petition, and helping us throughout the process. Overall, I had a great experience during this process, and I trust them.

I hired Mr. Shihab for my Change of Status application almost 3 years ago, and after seeing how professional he and his associates were, I decided to hire him again for my Adjustment of Status application. Mr. Shihab and his associates worked above and beyond to file my documents on time - very professional work and great follow-up. They even were proactive and scheduled an an appointment to discuss my Green Card interview a week before the appointment date with the USCIS. They followed up with me after the interview to make sure everything went well, until I have received my Permanent Resident Card a week ago :) I am not usually the kind of person who writes reviews; however, when it came to what Mr. Shihab and his team has done to my case, and how nice, professional, and understanding they were, I couldn't help myself from doing so. A very well deserved 5 stars!

I retained the services of Gus Shihab for my green card application as an Alien of Extraordinary Abilities and subsequent Application for Permanent Residence. Both of my applications were approved without any questions from the Immigration Office. Mr. Shihab was qualified and always answered my questions no matter how many emails I sent. Some of his responses were within minutes. I highly recommend him.

Gus is very thorough, knowledgeable, good communicator, and represents the best interests of his clients. Besides being an outstanding professional, Gus also has very nice personality, and it was a pleasure to work with him . I would definitely recommend Gus and his team!

***NTA under section 240 - Notice of Hearing In Removal Proceeding for Over stay*** My mom from India used to visit us in the U.S on B2 visa (tourist), last year after her last visit to U.S we received a “Notice To Appear and Removal Proceeding for Over stay” under section 240 from DHS and from local immigration court /ICE, my mom departed the US long before we received this notice and she did NOT overstay. I tried contacting DHS and local immigration court to communicate to them about this notice that was issued by error, but no luck. This Notice To Appear will stop her from entering the U.S in the future and she is the only family I have, I tried several times to communicate to DHS/ICE, DHS NTA unit and local immigration court by sending all the document proof that I have on her departure from U.S and did not overstay, but no reply back from any of the department. I gave up, and started searching online for Attorney, I found Mr.Shihab with very good reviews, so I contacted him the same day. Talked to him for 15 minutes, I got confidence, he listened to me and answered all my questions in the initial consultation. He explained me the process and how to resolve his case, I signed up and within a week he submitted the paperwork to Chief Counsel and he sent me the proof for submitting all the documents and also he talked to them about this case. In 4 weeks the Chief Counsel agreed and recommended to the immigration court to DISMISS the case based on Mr.Shihab points. Two weeks after that the Immigration court GRANTED to DISMISS the case without prejudice. I am so happy, NO WORDS TO SAY, HE IS THE BEST.

Since the beginning Gus paid attention to every detail of our case, and was not a single detail left out, and because of this, my case was approved, with no hick ups. I highly recommend this law firm in every challenging case. Thank you Gus and your team.

Mr. Shihab himself and his team are experts in immigration services. They are very knowledgable in their field and there were always extremely responsible and confident in what they did. I had a very smooth on time process with them for my green card application. Other than their excellent professional expertise I should mention how kind and responsive they are which made this commonly stressful process much easier. I cannot stress enough how responsible and well informed they are. Year 2020 were there were so many sudden immigration changes in law happened they were always on top of their game and ready to address any concerns very fast.
