I highly recommend Joshua. He has gone above and beyond, has been extremely professional and replies to questions very fast. Working with him has been a pleasure. We used his services for a Greencard.
I fount Josh online when I was desperately looking for help. I came to US with an O-1 Visa as a professional dancer. Time was passing by and I knew I won't be able to dance forever. What then? I had to leave the country and simply move on? Maybe, but its not what I wanted. After being here for over 5 years, having a life and being able to see my self living in US, I knew I wanted to stay. At the time someone have told me " You have an O-1 already. You can easily get a green card on your own!" So I applied by myself and unfortunately 6 months later I was denied. I had no idea what happened. Obviously it wasn't that easy as my friend suggested. I was stressed and confused. At this time I was also dealing wth a back injury and I knew my remaining time as a dancer was limited. I panicked. Started looking online for an immigration lawyer who cold help me and explain to me what have I done wrong. Many of the Law Offices I contacted previously to Josh's told me I have no chance. Their explanation was I wasn't "special" enough to get the green card trough my profession. They didn't see any other way but getting married. I finally contacted Josh. He was very kind. Looked at my papers. He didn't promise anything but said he need to know more about me and my carrier. He told me "Why don't you come back in 6 months or so. You just got denied and Its not a good idea to reapply immediately." He also explained to me what would I need more for my future application and how everything should come together. I came back to his office 6 months later. He took my case and started working on it immediately. He was patient and very carful, exploring every single possibility and angle. He guided me step by step trough the process being always on the top of every detail. Every single thing he suggested was well thought and I had a feeling that he was also trying to predict how USCIS office was going to respond to it. He wanted to be ready. And for a reason. After we got a "request for evidence" he knew exactly what to do. Here I am now, an year and a half later a proud green card holder. I am currently not dancing due to my back surgery. If it wasn't for Josh, I have no idea where would I be now, most likely not in US. He made my dream come true. I will always be very grateful. Thank you Josh!
Joshua helped me with my N-400 Naturalization Application and went with me on my interview day and helped clarifying my answers to the immigration officer. With him sitting next to me, the interview was a breeze. From Start filing the application to getting my interview and then Naturalization Certificate (it was same day Oath Ceremony), it took only 4.5 months total. All my emails to him were replied within a couple of hours. Joshua is an easy going and an amazing attorney! I thank him dearly for doing a great job for us immigrants!
Joshua helped us with my husbands green card process and was absolutely wonderful. We are across the country and he made himself available for frequent phone calls and quick email responses. He helped us navigate this complicated process seamlessly and was kind and compassionate. Despite the fact we are in the middle of covid our case was processed quickly and he was present for every step.
My spouse and I started my green card process without a lawyer and we messed up everything. When I received a NOID, we decided to hire an immigration attorney. I talked to many lawyers and when I talked to Mr. Joshua I knew that I found what I was looking for. My case was a really hard case but he handled it and few months after I got an approval for my green card.I was so hopeless in our last meeting that I barely spoke to you but I would like to say: Thank you very much! I will always recommend you to everyone who is looking for an excellent immigration attorney. Also Thank you Lucia!
Ana and Josh have expertly navigated the process of helping me to naturalize. When I first asked them for advice, which they were very generous with, I was resigning myself to allow my U.S. residency to permanently expire in order to stay with my children as we unexpectedly needed to move to Europe. Eventually, with Ana and Josh’s legal expertise, kindness and support, they outlined a plan for me which enabled me to feel like I was able to go through with the necessary process. They responded to my worries, doubts and concerns, providing support and guidance during what has been an emotionally difficult transition. I would not have had the courage and conviction to pursue citizenship without the confidence which Josh and Ana’s abilities gave me. They treated me like a family member, helping me cope while separated from my children and husband, as I waited for my interview, during which Josh accompanied me, and helped make it go very smoothly. I was naturalized on the same day as the interview on March 1, 2021.
Joshua was an incredible lawyer. He walked us through the process from application to the interview. Our case was complicated but Joshua made the process worry free. I never doubted I would be a citizen working with him.
I reached out to Josh for help with my family’s citizenship application, after I saw reviews online about how helpful he is. From the moment we first spoke in 2019 until now, I can truly say Josh has continued to be professional, friendly, and most importantly, accessible whenever we had a question. Thanks to Josh, my brother, my mom, and I are US Citizens. He made what is usually a nerve-wracking process seem so smooth and anxiety free. I cannot express how grateful I am for Josh’s help. He will be the first person I refer to if anyone I know ever needs help with immigration. Thank you so much Josh.
Me and my sons found him on line when we were so desperate to get someone to take us for Citizenship interview and he listened to us and answered all our questions. We hired him and February, March, 2021 he took us for interview and am so proud to say we are not Citizens. I would recommend him anytime.
Attorney Josh helped me with N400 application. There was some complication with my case, and I was worried. He reassured me from the start and gave me confidence. My case was approved. Throughout the process he was very kind, responsive, compassionate and reassuring. He also plays game very well. I would highly recommend him for anyone looking for help with immigration.
