We went to 3 immigration lawyers to get help for husband. He was going to be almost deported. All three of them told us that he needs to leave US and reenter after adjusting status and would take up to one year. We were referred by a friend about The Law Offices of Gary J. Kim and immediately call attorney Kim. We met with Mr. Kim and he was first to say that he would take the case and try his best to help my husband stay. He committed to getting my husband to stay here in the US. After he tried all different ways and endless phone conversations, we are happy to say that my husband can stay!
