I took consultation with Rajiv Sir twice. In few words, I would say he is excellent in his knowledge and he really reads your case, tries to understand it before he talk to you over the phone. My case is very much complicated ( labor substitution, EB2, concurrent filing, previous comp filed chapter 7, new comp filed another GC with different salary and job duties...etc).
During my first consultation, I asked same set of questions (10 - 15) from both Rajiv Sir and Sheela Murthy but I got all my queries answered with satisfaction and piece of mind only from Rajiv Sir.
During my 2nd consultation, due to dynamic nature of my queries, discussion needed more time than scheduled and Rajiv Sir gave me another slot free of charge to give me right direction before closing discussion thread with him.
Finally, I would say his fees is highest amoung all lawyers I have met but is worth paying as it gives you piece of mind at the end.
I am currently in the US under the VWP which expires March 15. I was about to apply for a marriage-based GC but I just found out that I am subject to 2-years HRR. I applied for a waiver (no objection). A lawyer told me today that I should still file the I-485 and just leave the question "subject to" blank or check "yes" and add "waiver pending". Is that going to work? I don't want to overstay the VWP. How many days does it usually take to find out that I-485 submission got accepted and I can legally overstay the VWP?
To the best of my knowledge that information is incorrect. You can file AOS only after the waiver is approved.
I hired attorney Khanna for my I-140 case in EB1 category and worked with Diane Lombardo for my case. She gave me immediate feedback on whatever question i have. I filed in premium processing and got my case approved within 2 weeks. I will say She prepared a strong case for me. Thanks to Diane and Rajiv Khanna.
Heather initiated my PERM process and handled it so professionally that it felt like in Immigration University.She explained each and every step of the process throughly enough to leave discussion without any doubts what so ever.My case had some special bumps on the way to I-140,which needless to mentioned was again handled with top most priority. Mark took over the last step of filling 485 and cleared with flying colors.I have GC approved in 4 months time from submission to Card in hand after dates became current. It is worth to mention about availability of Mr Khanna on coneference calls,as and when needed without any delay when certain key decisions were needed throughout the journey of 5 years. Honestly..I had many mis-conceptions about attorneys and associates about lack of professionalism and transparency.Thanks Rajiv,Heather and Mark for proving me wrong. Mr Rajiv,Your office reputation is in good hands. Highly recommended !!
This is fair comment Me and my family had a past few unlucky months. We spend a lot of money for consultations with other attornies but in vain, we thought of consuting Rajiv.We thought as Rajiv is top notch attorney in US for immmigration cases, he would charge stupenduos amount of money but he totally understood our situation and gave a wise advice regarding the COS of my wife,the consultation was free. Very hard to believe that some of the desi people out there do consultations not for the benifit of themselves but for the society. Rajiv still remebers of the old days where he had to struggle in the early 80's for maintaining his status and paying money to attornies. His advice is very helpfull and words can express our gratitude towards him. Thanks Rajiv for putting so much effort to rejunivate lives of some of the critical situations in the immigration law.
I had an accident and am on disability while my green card adjustment of status application ( form I-485 ) has been pending for over 4 years. My I-140 had been approved about 5 years back but my case has been caught up in the visa backlogs at USCIS and Department of State. I wanted to know if there was any provision for help in the immigration laws, in case I am sent for long term disability or my employment is terminated before I receive my green card. I learnt that employment and disability are subjects to be discussed with a benefits or employment attorney. The only immigration benefits are via AC 21 or via a private bill. Also, that one should not loose the advance parole anytime while the AOS is pending. I want to thank Mr. Rajiv Khanna for his generosity with time and expert guidance. Over the phone I found him to have a very pleasant personality. he had me feel comfortable and didnt seem money minded at all.
I had a question regarding my PERM petition. Rajiv graciously offered me a courtesy call to answer my question. As I was working with Rajiv's team in the past couple of months, their response was excellent. Thanks to Rajiv and Heather for their assistance. I would definitely recommend Rajiv's firm for any immigration related work.
I have been with Rajiv S. Khanna law office for my immigration needs for last 9 years. I have always found them very helpful with the amount of information and assitance they have provided. I havent work with any other attorney so I can't compare them with others, but based on services they provided to me, I never felt I should look for another attorney.
Consultation I received was instrumental in helping me make a vital decision with regards to career change. Thank you!
Hi, I took consultation with Rajiv sir twice for my sister-in-laws immigration issue. The first consultation showed us the path to keep immigration status current. Also, the consultation gave lot of confidence and relived our stress. Rajiv sir is excellent in his knowledge and he is well prepared to answer our questions during the actual consultation over phone. I am very much satisfied with the consultation provided by Mr. Rajiv. I can clearly see there is a helping mentality rather than just a service. Rajiv sir is very professional and gave us one free consulation when we requested for paid consultation for few questions. He is very promt in responding to regular emails with specific question, ofcourse without any charge. Rajiv sir, Thank you very much for everything. Regards, Siva
Rajiv and his team are simply awesome. Rajiv knows the subject matter and is very thorough with all the rules and regulations. I was impressed with the humility, simplicity and honesty.
I was assisted by DIane Lombardo a colleague and team member of Rajiv, who was diligent, detailed, prompt and persistent. Diane is highly focussed, paid attention to minute details and analytical. Diane always responded to calls and emails within 2 hours, and referred the matter to Rajiv, whenever required for specialist advice. A great team indeed. Anna Baker also was involved in the coordination and I did see that Anna made extra efforts to ensure all documentations are perfect.
I highly recommend Rajiv and team for all immigration related work.
Law Offices of Rajiv S. Khanna, is one of "THE BEST LAW FIRMS" to work on your immigration issues. My case was very complicated and attorney worked very diligently in resolving my case and getting I-140 Approved and also H1B case. The attorneys and paralegals are very easy to get to and respond to your needs immediately. This is essential for your case to be "Successful". I especially appreciated your attention to detail and prompt responses from "Rajiv" and Heather working on my case. They are very knowledgeable, creative and well determined and excellent quality of work and well documenting the process towards success. I have no words to say much how I am thankful to Rajiv. I would highly recommend Rajiv to anyone who required help with immigration related issues. "AWESOME!"
I would like to really thanks a lot for the guidance provided by the law office of Mr.Rajiv during my H1 extension process. In my case it was a double RFE and the whole team worked a lot to get me out of it. Finally got my H1 approved. I can strongly recommend taking services from Mr.Rajiv's law firm as I personally feel we are in safe hands.
Seamless working thru the process from my original visa extension and then filing my status change GC. I was on L1-A and status change to GC. Very professional office and timely responses.
I had a chance to work with Rajiv and Diane. You won't complain working with them because of their timely response and professional approach.
Overall a very good experience working with them.
Thanks.
