5 /5 Quyen: We met Richard Wilner, our immigration lawyer, on March 13, 2025, at the law office for our initial consultation. It was a pleasant experience speaking with Richard and answering his questions so he could evaluate our case for a green card application. Our first impression of Richard was very positive—he came across as honest, friendly, and professional. His evaluation of our case was simple and straightforward. He clearly explained the green card application process and its stages. There was no pressure or sales tactics used after the meeting ended.
We felt at ease and confident in Mr. Wilner’s abilities and in his law office’s capacity to deliver a positive outcome for our green card application, so we decided on the spot to sign the contract. We met with Chrystal to complete and process the contract. She was also very courteous and professional. It’s a good sign when everyone you meet at a law firm seems kind, ethical, professional, and good-hearted. The office culture appears to flow from the top and reflects the vision, values, and policies of its leadership.
The next day, we were assigned a case manager. Karina is responsible for guiding us through the applications we need to complete and informing us of the supporting documents required. She is our main point of contact (although we also have the option to reach out to the attorneys directly at any time if needed) and will assemble the full application package to be submitted to USCIS after review by two attorneys.
Karina has been a pleasure to work with, and we appreciate her prompt responses to all our questions and concerns. The process of completing the applications and gathering the necessary information (including obtaining a certified translation of the birth certificate through one of the office’s referrals) was smooth and efficient. About a month later, on April 14, 2025, USCIS received our green card application package and confirmed receipt both online and by mail.
On June 16, 2025, we received a notice that our interview appointment had been scheduled for July 21, 2025. A week before the interview, we had a preparation meeting with Mr. Wilner and his staff, Karina and Tamara, to go over the process and what to expect. Mr. Wilner also accompanied us to the interview. The very next day, the online case status was updated to reflect that our green card application had been approved. On July 25, 2025, the online portal indicated that our green card had been issued and the case was officially closed.
The entire green card application and approval process was smooth and fast—it took about three and a half months. We want to express our heartfelt gratitude to Mr. Wilner and his law firm for their outstanding support and guidance throughout the process. It was a wonderful experience with a successful outcome.
This milestone would not have been possible without your legal expertise, professionalism, and dedication. From the initial consultation to the final steps, your team was consistently responsive, clear, and patient, addressing every concern and ensuring that all documentation was thoroughly prepared and submitted on time.
Immigration processes can often be stressful and uncertain, but your guidance gave us confidence and peace of mind at every stage. Thank you for turning what could have been a complicated experience into a smooth and successful journey.
We sincerely appreciate everything your law office has done for our family. We believe others in need of immigration assistance will find your services incredibly valuable.
Thank you again for all your help, support, and guidance.
