Kim es una gran abogada. Sabe mucho sobre las leyes de migraciones y hace el proceso de obtener la documentación ya sea para tu green card o ciudadanía sea muy fácil.

Mrs. Alabasi has been able to assist us in a very unique immigration issue. Her knowledge of immigration law, her follow-up and her attention to detail was quite formidable! We were able to get resolution to our matter in a fairly quick period of time and without having to go back and forth making changes and adjustments. She is extremely thorough and compassionate.
