 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I needed an immigration lawyer to help me sponsor my parents for a green card and also to shepherd my parents through the process of consulate processing. I was referred to Tewani Law by a co-worker who highly recommended them. I can enthusiastically echo my co-worker, I cannot say enough positive things about the team of Kunal and Milan. Milan spent countless hours with my parents and me. She was fantastic and so patient with my parents. Every last detail was followed up on to make sure there were no errors or surprises. From the initial information gathering to handling all the online documentation, Milan did it all and made sure there were zero errors. When the USCIS communicated Kunal and Milan were immediately available to continue the case. You are at the mercy of the USCIS, so having a team who responds and works quickly around the notices is very very important. I do not feel we could have moved faster and gotten my patents green cards quicker with anyone other than the team at Tewani Law.

Kunal was a beacon of hope to my family at a time when our options appeared limited and the likelihood of a satisfactory resolution seemed neearly impossible. Not only was he able to resolve the legal intricacies of the matter effortlessly, his calm and empathetic demeanor offered emotional succor to myself and those I care about most. My mother and I are eternally grateful for his help. Kunal also helped a very dear friend of mine with the H-1B Visa applications for his employees. The matter in which he handled all their cases is commendable and I therefore recommend Kunal without any reservation.

 recommendsTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Facebook. I was in a tough situation where I was left with no lawyer to turn to after receiving a RFE (Request for More Evidence) for my O-1 visa. My previous lawyers had closed down their company overnight and my application was received by USCIS in a mess. I immediately contacted Kunal and he looked through my case to see how he could help the situation. He was very honest from the beginning about the presentation of my case and the 50/50 chance of it being approved but he was confident that we had something strong to work with. He was extremely dedicated from the moment he took on my case and went out of his way and work hours to ensure it was presented in the best light. I was confident when we finally sent it off because I knew I was in good hands and that we had put our best foot forward. 5 months after receiving a RFE, I received an approval for my O-1 visa! Even if I hadn’t received one, I would have continued to recommend Kunal to the many people that I have. He is really great at what he does!

I had emailed him my concerns the day before I went in and when I got to his office he took me in right away. He also had all the information ready, that answered my questions with different options on how to tackle the situation. His understanding and knowledge in immigration is impeccable. He really knows his stuff and breaks it down in terms for the layman really well. I would highly recommend him to anyone with any immigration issues. I was treated like an old friend and he was with me every step of the way (day or night). I can't thank him enough.
