Immigration Process and Issues
shaun:
Neil makes an excellent point and is one of the reasons I started this thread. So many people have different thought and ideas as to how to get the immigration process to work for you. It is difficult to sort through all of the ideas and weed out the bad ones. The immigration people are certainly no help when it come to making decisions.
Robert is great. He and I have talked many times and he is one of my considerations when it comes to this next attempt to bring my wife here. He has helped me to understand some of the more complex issues. I am hoping he will weigh in on this subject from time to time.
At this point the main issue or me is what kind of stroke a lawyer or consultant might have after a denial. I have heard but don't know if it is true that some lawyers can call into the consulate and have been able to pull cases out of the round file. My most recent application we used someone in China. They assured me that if things went wrong that they would be able to step in and help us work to change the findings. When we got the denial they said there was nothing they could do for us. That is why I am looking for people to comment on the successes of the lawyers they use.
I know in the case of Holmes and Lolly they have had at least 2 successful women to immigrate to the US. There may be more who have used them on this site. I threw out the name of Charles Phillips of South Caroline to see if someone here might have used him and what his track record is.
If I get some comments like this I might change my first post on this thread to reflect the tally of certain lawyers and/or people who professionally submit applications for others.

Maybe there should be new thread that solely lists these legal eagles and anything not appertaining to a person or company should be removed so it does not get cluttered up.
Top of the list should be Robertt.

I agree. Also. I first posted this under Ask an Experienced Member. I think it should be moved to the immigration section. Mods?

Shaun it's all in the name.At the bottom of the application.Where it says.Who helped you prepare this application.If the consulate denies a visa application.When you got a well known immigration attourney's name at the bottom of your wife's application.The consulate knows that if they deny the application.They know that you are going to call your over priced lawyer.And raise some hell.The over priced lawyer is then going to call the consulate.And raise some hell.Then questions are going to be asked.If the person doesn't have a valed reason to deny the application.They could loose there job.It's way to cushy of a job.To cause yourself that much grief.Come on free room and board.Private transportation.All major and minor holidays off.Great pay and benifits.
Why did Robert S, Fish, And the guy standing in the post office.Get thiere wife a visa.When they didn't have a lawyer.Because they are vetrens.You know how it goes.You don't mess with a vet.Unless your looking to be some kind of marter.Because somebody is going to put a hurt on you for messing with a vet.A dozen vets broke into a WW 2 memorial.They stood around took pictures.Sang songs.And prayed for the soles of there dead friends. The next day somebody suggested that they arrest the vets for trespassing.The person who suggested this hasn't ben seen since.So you can see where this is going.
How can the consulate mess with the guy who doesn't have a lawyer? Anyway they want to. they can loose paperwork.They can let the medical,The police report expire.what are you going to do.Call your congressman,Go ahead.All you have done is give them more fuel to deny the application.You need the fancy lawyer name at the bottom of the paperwork.Is so that they don't play games with the application.

Maxx I hear what you are saying. You don't need to convince me that a lawyer is needed.
The point of what I am doing is to move beyond all of the minutia of ideas and get to some real facts and build a thread with lawyers names and successes. I know that you and California Jim have had success with Holmes and Lolly now I am wanting to see if anyone else has. I am also wondering about other lawyers that might be as good or better.
I not only want this information for me but for others that will travel through this site from time to time trying to make sense of it all.
Has anyone else used Holmes and Lolly and what happened?
Has anyone used another lawyer they would like to talk about?
All I know is that I need my wife to be with me and she wants the same.
