We highly recommend Robert Carpenter! Robert was recommended by a friend who credited Robert for guiding a family member through a very difficult immigration case. We had a very difficult husband/wife immigration situation that was made even more difficult when our first attorney had already made a grievous error on advice given to one of us. Robert expertly guided us through the process that had many detours. Now, one of us is a U S citizen; the other a Green Card holder. It is difficult to put into words our feelings of appreciation for what Robert did for us. He was always available and kept us current. We attended multiple meetings with him in his office for updates and reviews. He was always attentive and answered questions and explained everything in terms we all could understand. Plus, emails and telephone calls were usually directly with him, and he was prompt in every aspect. We would very highly recommend Robert Carpenter and his staff for any type of immigration case!
I had a very very difficult immigration case. I was actually in deportation proceedings. After many years dealing with other attorneys an an exorbitant fees paid, I got referred to Robert Carpenter. Since the beginning I trusted him. He was great, I was able to stay in the USA get a greencard and able to raise my two daughters. a few years later he got me USA citizenship.. He did possible what other attorneys didn't.. He is a very honest person. I will recommend Robert with my eyes closed.. He is worth every penny he charge. He gets the job done..I am thankful to God that I found him. Thank you Robert..
