What Our Clients Say About Us
My husband and I had a long, complicated green card process, and then our citizenship case got delayed. We were so frustrated! That’s when we hired Mahsa. She was amazing at getting things moving again and made the whole process so much easier and faster than we expected. Thanks to her, we finally achieved our dream of citizenship!
When I first consulted with Mahsa, she surprised me by explaining I could apply for citizenship in three years instead of five, even though my green card wasn’t through my U.S. citizen spouse. Later, I hired her to handle my parents’ green card applications. Without her guidance, I would have had to wait at least two more years just to become a citizen myself, delaying my parents’ process even further. Mahsa is a genuinely reliable and supportive attorney, my go-to attorney for all my needs.
Without a doubt, we recommend Mahsa and her firm to anyone in need of an immigration attorney. She handled our RFE response with exceptional expertise and professionalism, making a stressful process so much easier for us. Her attention to detail and dedication to our case truly stood out. If you’re looking for someone knowledgeable and reliable to help with your immigration needs, Mahsa is the one to call!
We feel so lucky to have had Attorney Mahsa Mohkamkar working on our case. Others told us my husband easn’t eligible to adjust his status, but Attorney Mahsa found an exception and worked so hard to make it happen. Thanks to her, he got his green card! She really knows her stuff, and we’re so grateful for all her help. On top of that, she’s such a kind and caring person. We couldn’t have asked for a better attorney!
What Are Your Options for Family-Based Immigration?
There are many categories for family immigration, including those for immediate relatives and for preference categories. According to United States law, immediate relatives can apply for family-based immigration if they are the spouse of a United States citizen, the unmarried children under the age of 21 of a U.S. citizen, or the parents of a citizen, provided that the child is at least 21 years of age. Immediate relatives receive special priority over other family members, and there is an unlimited number of these visas, making the process much smoother and faster.
Other options for family immigration include green cards through marriage and adopting foreign nationals. To learn more about these and other options, contact our law firm to discuss your questions and concerns. We represent individuals and families in these and other family-based immigration matters, and we would be proud to assist you with your case.
