About

El Ranchod Law Group, servicios a los inmigrantes en español Immigration is not just a profession, it is part of my daily personal life, as I grew up as an immigrant and went through the immigration process. At the age of one my family immigrated to the U.S. from Cape Town, South Africa. My family's immigration history begins with my great grandparents. They were extremely courageous as most immigrants are, as they traveled by boat from India to South Africa to make a better life for themselves. They worked hard to survive, as they did not know anyone in South Africa, did not have a job waiting for them, but they did have their work ethic and integrity. My grandparents managed to make a living by mending shoes. Eventually my grandfather turned that cobbler profession into a successful business by creating a shoe factory. Despite my grandfather's success in South Africa in creating a successful business, my grandfather wanted to escape the oppression of apartheid and make a better life for himself and his family. Therefore, he immigrated to the U.S. Then my father brought our family to the U.S. and attended Chiropractic school. My wife was born and raised in Bombay (Mumbai), India and we met in the U.S. while she was teaching special needs children in Santa Clara, California. I travel to India often and stay with my wife's family in Bombay, which is one of the highlights of my year because I get the best Indian food and get to spend time with family! I understand on a very personal level why people are willing to leave their family, friends, and all that they know to start a new life in the U.S. Thus it was only a natural evolution and personal calling for me to practice immigration law.   I consider it an honor and privilege to help make your life better. This is not a profession for me, this is my life; and thank you for the possibility of entrusting me with your future.

I am a native San Franciscan. I met my husband in Berkeley, CA some years ago. My husband was born in Mexico, and had come to the U. S. when he was a young boy. He entered the country illegally he was unaware of this detail. As the years passed he was gainfully employed, and paid his taxes. He always wanted to become a permanent resident but was afraid. His status as an illegal Alien prohibited him from traveling, driving, attending Dr. appointments, and a host of other events, and just daily activities. We made a decision to come out of the shadows and seek legal counsel in hopes that our lives would change for the better. I was in search of an attorney to assist us with this delicate matter- immigration. I researched law firms and I attended a few legal consultations. I made an appointment at Ranchod Law Group. The reason my family and I decided to put our trust in Ranchod Law Group was simple, Mr. Ranchod, his team of attorneys, and the paralegals were courteous, knowledgeable, great listeners and professional. From the first meeting my husband and I were relaxed even when speaking with him about personal matters regarding my husband’s illegal entry as a child into the U.S. The team of attorneys and paralegals made us feel comfortable and they worked diligently to assure that all of our documents were prepared correctly in order to be approved. The journey of becoming a permanent resident is challenging and very daunting. It’s stressful, time consuming and confusing. I couldn’t have completed this complicated process without Ranchod Law Group. If you have a loved one that needs to come out of the shadows and seek legal counsel regarding immigration; Ranchod Law Group will help you every step of the way, and they do it confidently, professionally, and with respect. I will forever be indebted to the staff at Ranchod Law Group, they provided my husband and I with a gift that is priceless. Sincerely, Mr. & Mrs. Rodriguez

I'm thankful for Melissa Oklan and Kaushik Ranchod for their outstanding service in my J-1 exceptional hardship waiver. Their professional approach is superb and they helped me through every step in this long process. They have built a strong case, filed it in a timely manner, and followed up with me regularly. Actually, Melissa Oklan went further step and had direct communications with my employer regarding my J-1 waiver, which was very helpful to keep my job. I strongly recommend Melissa Oklan and Kaushik Ranchod for J-1 waiver giving their extensive experience

First off, I hate writing reviews. Haha , but I'm doing one today. To let everyone know how much I really do appreciate the help that was given to me and my family. I am really thankful for Paola, and Mr. Kaushik that helped me with my grandparents immigration case. They helped me through some really stressful times and anything of this sensitive matter makes you nervous! The last thing you want is for your parents to be mad at you! Haha. So I am just thankful that I went to them!! Paola responded to my emails and even contacted the embassy to follow up on my case. She did everything in her hands. My family and I are truly greateful! I appreciate the Honesty behind their practice.

Very professional and attention to detail. They stood by me all the time even in testing times of uncertainty of Covid and made sure my application was well prepared and I was ready or interview. Mr. Jose was in constant touch with me .Whenever I had any questions he was there to answer. The attorney is best in his trade, he knows how to well prepare and present these immigration cases

Kaushik provided excellent advice and was very thorough in going-over the options available for those wishing to immigrate to the US through the legal channels. I was impressed that Kaushik didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear but was extremely professional in presenting the law in layman's terms. I was quite impressed with Kaushik's expertise and personable style regarding client relations.

I worked with this firm to process my change of status, from J1 to H1B status. My boss has worked with them before, which it's why she recommended them from the get-go. I must say I felt intimidated at the beginning. It's just a lot of information and requirements and there are a lot of people you need to talk/email/deal with. I was assigned to work with Armando, who handled my case and answered my questions very nicely. I felt that him and everyone else I worked with were all very knowledgeable and followed up with me all the way to the end until I got my visa approved. If there's anything I could improve from their service would be how approachable they are. Sometimes, it gets a bit too overwhelming and you just want to get on the phone and quickly ask about a couple things and it's next to impossible to do so. Emails work better with them, and it's just something you have to get used to. I would and def. will hire them again! Thanks for the help.
