My mom applied to US citizenship with medical N-648. On her first interview an immigration officer denied her disability waiver, she is a qualified applicant but the form was rejected anyway. I was happy to find Alena Shautseva and she took care of this issue gracefully. Alena knew exactly what to propose as a strategy for the next interview. My mom’s passed the exam successfully with this lawyer’s assistance and became a U.S. citizen. Alena was professional, pleasant, and kept the promises. My family is greatly appreciated for Alena’s competence and expertise in this matter.

My experience with Alena Shautsova has been more than pleasant, & I mean that in all aspects. From start to finish, she not only gave my wife & I the confidence we needed to go through all the necessary steps but she was always informative, polite, easy to talk to, & understanding. I’m someone that always does a great deal of research before I spend money on something, whether it’s something as important as a lawyer or doctor, or something as basic as a mousepad. Anyone researching Ms.Shautsova will find that she has a stellar record & a prestigious background in immigration law. It was the start of my confidence & what led me to contact her in the first place. I am extremely keen when it comes to extrapolating on-paper data into real world scenarios, no matter how abstract the connection. It’s a gift that allows me to see other people’s gifts & how good they can be at it. Believe me when I say, Alena met & EXCEEDED all my expectations no matter the hardships we encountered. To give a brief description of the situation we had, my wife is Canadian & I am an American citizen. In one of my visits to her, an uncontrollable event forced us to have her cross the border with me on my way back to the U.S.. She overstayed the 6 months that Canadians are allowed to stay within a 12 month period. By this point we’ve been together for 2 and a half years. Another issue was that the border officer who checked us on the Amtrak did not stamp her passport upon entry. I actually had to ask for mine to be stamped as that is something that I prefer to have for my own records. Fast forward a year and a half into gathering records, filing documents (all of which is made easy with the fact that all you have to do is hand what she asks of you to her), Ms.Shautsova training and preparing us, and my wife and I attending the necessary government protocols such as her getting her biometrics done, we were finally scheduled for an interview. The man who interviewed us was an extremely unfair person and was not satisfied with what we had so we were scheduled for another more in depth interview. This had my wife and I really worried, not so much that we had anything to hide or did anything wrong, as our relationship was as real as it can possibly be, but when someone is the most important thing in the world to you, even the small notion of possibly being separated from them even for a brief moment, is going to eat away at you. This is where Ms.Shautsova is not only one of the most knowledgeable, skilled, clever, and intelligent immigration lawyer around, but also very considerate, kind, and keenly knows what to inform you about in order for you to regain your composure and your confidence. She briefed us on all our options, what each path would require, and trained us extensively for the interview. She even briefed us on the possible negative outcomes and the solutions for them to keep us from worrying. If you have anything specific to ask, you can be comfortable in asking her. She does not judge. For the two years we knew her we always felt like we were talking to an extremely reliable friend who was helping us get through a stressful situation, instead of just a professional who we were paying to solve our problems. Speaking of payment, Alena’s prices are more than fair. For two years we only paid once, which was the initial payment we agreed to at the very beginning. With Alena Shautsova, you are getting ELITE quality service for the price of your normal lawyer, and I do not exaggerate. At the end of it all, Ms.Shautsova fought for us and we were able to acquire residency for my wife. If an immigration lawyer is what you’re looking for, I can’t give you a reason why anyone would need to look further. Knowing her for two years, it’s easy for me to see how vast and extensive her knowledge in the field is. One final thing I want to add in here: Her assistant is a great guy. He played a big role in keeping my wife and I from worrying too much.

We went through all the visas suitable for my wife and me. She answered all the question in details and gave me extra time to discuss ways of possible immigration as well. Thanks

Alena is a very professional and excellent attorney for immigration issues.She gave me hope with my case and was very realistic with the timelines regarding my case. She worked tirelessly to make sure all my documents were filed on time.I am forever grateful for her help.I also want to appreciate Greg who works at Alena's Brooklyn office location ,he was very professional and always encouraging to look at the bright side of things when I had no hope. Alena is the best attorney I have come across and I s will refer anyone and will go to her for any legal situation as I am confident she will represent me well. Thanks a million Alena .You gave me hope when I had none.I have my green card because of you. God bless you and your staff.You are all a group of very professional and good people to work with. Thanks again Anthea

Alena is the best lawyer I ever worked with, her professional attitude saved me a lot time and money. She helped me create a really strong case that achieved our goal and I received my documents in a short period of time. She guided me during my process and after. Always supportive,reassuring and in general a genuine person. Very satisfied & will always recommend her. Thank you so much!

My wife's immigration case was denied due to identity theft. Negative information was entered on her record by DHS. My first attorney did not really know how to go about to resolve this. My 2nd attorney was very slow, hard to get a hold, even though he had 10+ years of experience. Out of desperation I found Ms. Shautsova on Avvo. I had 3 consultations with her while I was still with my other attorney. Each time I came away with extremely valuable information that help my case progress forward. She helped me with getting my wife's record corrected in CBP. Finally, I decide to retain her as the legal representative for me. She was able to get my wife's waiver of inadmissibility approved. I cannot even begin to describe her level of knowledge. I was always able to get in touch with her whenever I needed to. She was very professional.

I hired Alena in 2017 in order to obtain my permanent residency and earlier this month I finally received my green card and it is all thanks to Alena. She has been incredible throughout the entire process and has been very understanding, communicative and informative at all times. Although the process seemed long, she certainly provided me with the necessary confidence and patience. I would highly recommend her services!

Anyone who needs a attorney you have just found a good one, Ms. Shautasova was very helpful in my case, she did not stop ever and was there when I needed her. Very resilient, articulate and understanding as she share her stories with us and speaks with a deep conviction. I wouldn't be anywhere far without her help, she has my deepest condolences and respect.

Alena Shautsova is the great immigration Lawyer. I'm very glad that I chose Alena Shautsova for our case. Our case was very difficult because my husband lost his passport which he entered the country. We went to other lawyers but they didn't give us enough hope. Than I start researching for a good lawyer and I found her on the web. Alena Shautsova and Mr Gregory were very flexible with very good attitude to us. When we explained our case to Alena Shautsova,she listened very carefully and said I will work hard for your case and gets your green Card by one year which she does. I can't explain how happy and excited we are now. Yes I highly recommend Alena Shautsova to anyone who needs for immigration issues and being thankful to her.

Alena is a truly professional immigration attorney. We found Alena's info on the web when my mother-in-law needed an immigration attorney to help her with the citizenship exam process. My mother-in-law is 77 year old and was uncapable of going through the process on her own. Alena not only helped with all the necessary paperwork, but also literally took her hand and walked her to the exam room. Not only a great immigration lawyer, but a very nice person as well.
