After a long journey in becoming a permanent resident, with the help of Rajiv and his team, I have become a PR recently. Had to go through some tough situations with the immigration during the process. Rajiv and his team did an excellent job in helping me through those tough situations and were always available to answer all my questions and provide valuable advise. Thank you much Rajiv and all the supporting staff who have contributed. Thank You.
I have been following Rajiv ji on his website and blogs for over 6 years now. Always wanted to be associated with him and I am so glad that the time came last year when Ms Heather handled my PERM case. Conference calls, guidance needed, anxiety - all were handled with great professional attitude and passion. I could not have felt more comfortable. Rajiv Ji is such a gem of a person, no words can describe what he does for the community. This year, a colleague of mine was going through extreme troubles with a 10 year bar on her and her family with 3 school going kids. The case was messed up by 3-4 lawers and all of them were advising them in a negative way.. completey in the wrong direction. I introduced her to Rajiv Ji and she was very hesitant in the beginning, did not want to go to another lawer, had accepted her fate etc etc. But in my heart I knew, there was hope till Rajiv Ji does not say 'no'..... and guess what, in our first meeting together he gave great hopes with a lot of positivity. His approach is very human, very person. I just love that. Well, needless to say, a case which would have been a disaster for a family of 5, was taken care of with great care and passion, with a lot of heart into it. And we all know, where there is heart and truth, God cannot be away! The family got it's status back, its like a dream and probably we will take time to actually understand and feel the result.... Jagbir Ji and Anna were just amazing in their approach and handling of issues. I admire their professionalism and their personal touch given to a case. You are all a wonderful team and please keep up the same way always. God bless you all and thank you once again!
Rajiv ji is a very experiened immigration lawyer who provides honest and straighforward advice. I am very pleased with his approach and also very impressed with his knowledge of the law.

If you will ask me what is the definition of the word HOPE, the first thing that I will definitely remember in my lifetime is Atty. Rajiv. I have asked numerous lawyers who can fix my case which was messed up by incompetent lawyers and they all told me the same thing, HOPELESS[b].[/b] Atty. Rajiv and his team, specifically Atty. Jagbir, literally saved my family's future! We have been subjected to a 10-year bar but because of Atty. Rajiv's ingenuity, we were able to escape the impossible. He is a[b] [/b]miracle worker. No adjective could ever describe the way we feel right now. We were finally granted our extension of stay which had been countlessly denied. His staff were very kind and accomodating, they were able to understand what we were going through at that time that they were very sensitive in answering all emails, calls and questions that I had. We are now in the process of filing our greencard and I am very optimistic that everything will now run smoothly since Atty. Rajiv is our "superlawyer". I have learned my lesson, no one could ever have done it best but Atty. Rajiv. My heartfelt gratitude to you and your staff! God bless all of you!!
