I endorse Kathryn 1000%

My case was a very troubled case, we had denied, revoked applications prior retaining Kathryn’s help. We had been turned down by quite a few lawyers, they thought our case was not likely to be approved. But Kathryn was a fighter, she is very smart and very tough, she devised brilliant strategy to help us, when we were so scared, she calmed us down and she was able to argue her way through the immigration process. She is a brilliant fighter, she can do really hard cases where other lawyers saw no help. She got us green card when we lost our hope. I endorse Kathryn 1000%.”  

Saved us time, money and hassle, which is exactly what we were looking for

 December 2015 posted by Patra NorrisKathryn’s legal team provided excellent service and advice for my husband and I as we were working towards my US Citizenship (he is a born US citizen, me a Thai citizen) while we were stationed overseas working for one of the world’s largest Oil & Gas Companies and America’s third largest Corporation. Under INA 319(B) “Expeditious Naturalization for Spouses of U.S Citizens Employed Abroad” and Kathryn’s guidance, we were able to complete the process of going from LPR to US citizen in 14 weeks. Kathryn is a pleasure to deal with; knowledgeable, reliable and very efficient. We received a high level of service and care from Kathryn and her team. We only had to travel to the US (Houston, TX) once for my interview and oath ceremony. Kathryn was able to get my interview 1 week in advance of the oath ceremony so we handled everything in one trip. Saved us time, money and hassle, which is exactly what we were looking for. Thanks Kathryn and team! I would highly recommend Kathryn’ services to any organization or individual.  

I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is facing any kind of immigration challenge

 August 2015 posted by Yanting WangKathryn, Nadine and all her staff are professional, responsive and caring throughout the whole process for my H1B petition. These are qualities rarely found in immigration attorneys nowadays. I submitted my H1B petition in 2014 by another well-known firm in Houston but was struggling during the process. Then I met Katie and Nadine and decided to go with them. They answered all of my questions and concerns, and assured me with a detailed plan and timeline. My case was approved a few days ago with no RFE, and thank you Kathy, Nadine and everybody. They worked hard to help all their clients because they deeply understand the current situation for immigrants. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is facing any kind of immigration challenge. They are top notch and won’t disappoint you.”

She is clearly an expert in her field and is a very efficient person

 August 2015 posted by Sarita R

“I consider myself very fortunate that I found Ms.Kathryn N Karam to be the attorney for my Naturalization related procedures. Being stationed overseas for personal reasons at the time, my case had quite a few time constraints and required special paperwork. Ms. Karam and her firm helped me through all the forms, documentation and preparations for the interview, and other related proceedings in such a manner that it all turned out seamless and hassle free from my end. She is clearly an expert in her field and is a very efficient person. I will readily recommend Ms.Karam to anyone requiring professional assistance with their Immigration and Naturalization process.”

  

I had approval within 1 week!

 March 2015 posted by Craig Barrie

Kathryn – and her staff – were recommended to my wife and I by my wife’s colleagues at Chevron in July 2014. We were looking to see what options we would have for a green card application and ultimately decided to go down the route of an EB11 after a nice informal chat about our options. Kathryn and Nadine worked with me closely over the next 5 months to gather all of the evidence I needed and were friendly and prompt in their responses at all times. The sheer volume of paperwork and the fine detail of the whole package was impressive to say the least. Their office submitted the documentation in January 2015 – premium processing – and I had approval within 1 week! That approval was down to the efforts of Kathryn, Nadine and the rest of their staff in making sure that the application was water tight and that I was not wasting my time. My EAD was approved in April 2015 and I am happily still working with Kathryn and Nadine while I await the approval of my AOS and Green Card. I cannot recommend this law office enough, they are friendly, efficient and clearly know their stuff, keeping me updated at all times on the status of my application.”

 

She has a deep knowledge of immigration laws and helped through any complications

 January 2015 posted by Lindsey Naufal

Kathryn has helped us with both an O-1 visa and immigration for my husband. We pursued this process from overseas and our experience with Kathryn was fantastic. She promptly replied to every email and question (and we had plenty of both) which was crucial because of job related time constraints. She has a deep knowledge of immigration laws and helped through any complications. Kathryn has a strong team (Katrina, Nadine and Jessica) who all together are not just friendly and supportive but also a joy to work with. We recommend Kathryn’s office without any reservation.”

I can never repay how much you have helped me

 January 2015 posted by Frank Rangel

When I first met Kathryn Karam, it was assisting my employer to get me out of an ICE detention center. At that point, I didn’t realize how a mistake I had made 10 years before was going to continue to affect my life. Kathryn’s advice at that time was that my situation needed time, but there was a possibility of citizenship down the road. Four years passed and I looked Kathryn up again. I wanted to see if enough time had passed and see what my chances were at obtaining citizenship.
I was surprised that without much introduction, she remembered my name and my girlfriends as well. I knew at that moment that if anyone was going to help me, it would be her. So, as of October 1st I was sworn in as a US Citizen.
Thank you Kathryn and your team. I can never repay how much you have helped me, but anyone I know who needs an immigration lawyer will be calling you!!!”

Kathryn Karam and her team assisted me in my naturalization application

 January 2015 posted by Urs Widmer

Kathryn Karam and her team assisted me in my naturalization application. My case was not straight forward but Kathryn was very good at clearly outlining a strategy. I dealt with her across several time zones and she even flew out to CA for my interview. She was focused and tenacious – even when first indications weren’t in favor of my application, she stuck with it and continued on the outlined path.

She clearly has an in-depth understanding on how the USCIS (and the immigration law) is working and what is required to build a successful case.”

 

Ms. Karam and her team came in to save our day with great expertise and savvy understanding

 January 2015 posted by Marlon Urbina

After a very unpleasant experience with a previous attorney, Ms. Karam and her team came in to save our day with great expertise and savvy understanding of immigration issues. From the get-go, she took the time to listen carefully about our case, did her own research and came back to us with an elaborate course of action to obtain our L-1/L-2 visas.

After that first meeting, she went the extra mile to gather, evaluate and compile all the information needed, not only to file our application within a short time frame (our I-94 was a month away to expire) but also to assemble an extremely cogent presentation of our case. Everybody in her staff made us feel that every single aspect of our case was being taken care of at all times at all different levels of the firm.

But the most remarkable fact was the eloquence and appropriateness of the response letter to the RFE. Right then, we knew she was fully committed to get the job done. We received our legal status in no time and are now ready to start operations of our new office in Houston. I look forward to hire her services for family and friends in the near future. Thanks Kathryn, Nadine, Jessica and Katrina! – Marlon, Adriana and Aaron.”

Kathryn Karam

“I started off with a very thorough consultation with Kathryn regarding my case for NIW petition. For every question I had, she had an answer, and previous cases she has worked to support it. She took the effort to review my case from all angles to ensure that I build a string case. I walked away from our meeting confident that I made the right choice in choosing Kathryn to help me in this process. My file I-140 was approved in 3 months.

US citizenship application

 February 17, 2016 

I did a lot of research about immigration lawyers before I started my application. Kathryn was referred by a trusted friend of mine who understands immigration law and various cases.
Kathryn has done an exceptional job at providing legal advice and helping with preparation and successful outcome of my citizenship application. She was accessible all times, and responded to my questions on time with high quality. Her law firm demonstrated exceptional professionalism and strong understanding of the process, questions and key areas associated with my application. I would highly recommend her and her law firm for immigration services.”

Competent and Extremely Dedicated

“I had been in the U.S. with a student visa for about 10 years. I had consulted with and hired multiple lawyers with no results. Kathryn was able to do what no other lawyer had been able to do: Obtain my citizen status. If you want a lawyer who is competent and is willing to go the extra mile, hire Kathryn. She was a bit pricey but it was better than paying for other cheap lawyers who wasted my money and time.” – Sergio

An excellent immigration lawyer!

 December 1, 2015 posted by Marcela Torres

“I would like to strongly recommend Kathryn Karam for her outstanding work and effort put into my immigration case, which let to success on my legal case. I had tried with other lawyers before to obtain citizenship and none of them gave me a correct answer for my case until I contact Kathryn. She was able with her hard work and dedication to show and explain my rights to obtain my citizenship. I would like to recommend all who are out there looking for an immigration lawyer to consider Kathryn as it will be a warranty to success. Also, she was able to help out my brother with his immigration case, and it was successful too. I would like to mention and make clear that she is a certified lawyer and she is very good at providing information to her clients, she explains all issues and provides accurate answers, which contributed to the success on my case. Previously, I had contacted other lawyers in Maryland, Virginia, and in Texas but all of them weren’t giving me accurate responses because they were not certified lawyers. All the lawyers I meet previously were not as professional and seem to charge abusive fees. Kathryn Karam is very fair with her pricing, and eventhough she is younger than other lawyers, she is quite clever and has a lot of knowledge.” – Marcela Torres

Successful US Residency

 October 20, 2015

” I met with Ms. Kathryn Karam at a professional networking event where she made a presentation of her services. At the time, I had already committed and in the US Residency application process with another attorney, but I was not satisfied and started to worry. I fear that my application was too slow, clumsy, and lacked professional drive. After I presented my case to Ms. Kathryn Karam and we decided to work together, things changed 180 degrees. It became precise, organized, with the right timing and connections to the US Authorities. I felt relived, started to trust the process and I became confident in the outcome. Ms. Kathryn Karam acts proactively to manage any situation and she provides regular feedback. She is professional, efficient, focused, to the point and she knows the system. It is easy for me to recommend Ms. Kathryn Karam for her work.”

Outstanding Immigration Attorney

 July 16, 2015 posted by Steve

“I had earlier lived in the USA as a permanent resident, but after several years away I discovered I needed professional help to enable me to return. Kathryn analysed my situation and suggested several possible options, one of which was the SB-1 visa. Although the most difficult, the SB-1 became my preferred option. An SB-1 restores the applicants permanent resident status, but is very hard to obtain and so is relatively rare. I had not heard of the SB-1 before, and as I progressed thru the system I found many Immigration officials lacked familiarity with it also. Kathryn and Nadine were superb in helping me build and present my case in the best possible way. This was critical to my ultimate success in gaining the SB-1. I was living in Australia at the time, so my daytime was Houston night, yet my emails were still answered promptly. Finally, Kathryn managed to speed up processing of my SB-1, saving months of time. I am left with the impression that Kathryn and her team are real experts in their field, and work extremely hard for their clients. I have no hesitation at all in strongly recommending them.” – Steve

“Kathryn – and her team – were recommended to me through my wife’s work and I engaged her as my immigration lawyer to apply for an EB11 in July 2014. From our first meeting Kathryn was clear about what was needed and with her advice and assistance I started to compile all of the relevant documents. Between July 2014 and January 2015 – when my package was submitted – Kathryn was prompt in her responses, always checking that the fine detail of the supporting evidence was sufficiently strong for the application. My EB11 was approved 1 week after submission – via premium processing – which can only be testament to the excellent work put in by Kathryn to ensure its success. I highly recommend Kathryn, not only for her knowledge and effort but, also because she puts her clients and ease and responds quickly to any query.” – Craig

Thanks to Kathryn helping me to get my green card after failing the green card interview.

 March 23, 2015 posted by Lana

“I just received a letter this week from USCIS that I am going to get my green card very soon ! It is the result of the 2.5 months of hard work that Kathryn & her great team helped me to solve my application trouble after I failed the green card interview. It’s my pleasure to write a review for Kathryn, a great lawyer whom you will never regret to ask her to deal with your immigration issues. I am highly impressed by her foreign language skills such as almost native in Chinese while she did not grow up in China nor she is a Chinese, her professionalism, eloquently wrote letters to be sent to the government, down to earth attitude, super quick response to emails & calls, attention to great details, genuine care & understanding for people, detail minded, very organized so she can handle a lot of clients in a very effective manner and her strong memory towards immigration laws & remember great details on your case. I need to give special thanks to Nadine, a young, smart and compassionate kind hearted lawyer for her devotion & great care towards my case. Without Kathryn & Nadine, my case could not be solved that promptly! I will definitely recommend Kathryn for my friends and relatives who need to seek immigration service! I also need to thank Miss Vo, Katrina & Britney for their great assistance on the follow up work of my case to ease my worries. Thanks God, back in Dec 2014, I told my husband we should not rely on our previous lawyer anymore as he proved himself to be an dishonest person. From avvo.com, I noticed there is a female lawyer called Kathryn who has lots of good reviews seems to be a compassionate person. Hoping she could understand the reasons why filing extreme hardship right away is not what I want, as I did not think myself should be guilty for committing any misrepresentation only by an unintentional error. During the consultation, Kathryn proves herself to be a very patient and attentive person who is going to treat my case seriously. My husband and I chatted with her for around 2 hours on SUNDAY as she needed to work overtime for one of her clients on what seemed to be a difficult case. Yes, I got lucky to be able to consult her on Sunday which she rarely meets clients on Sunday. From Dec, 2014 to late Feb, 2015, Kathryn replied all my emails promptly, there are many times she even replied my emails after 10 pm and some were even after 11 pm. I was shocked to see how KEEN she has been for her clients. I told my husband she is a very dedicated person, she is not doing a so so job for people, she wants things to be done perfectly. During the 2.5 months working with her, I felt I was finally in safe hands who also has a wonderful team of law professionals to handle my case when she was out of office. Her team is also as responsive as her, they are professional, polite and understanding. Last but not least, if you are a Chinese who speaks native Mandarin, you will definitely be impressed by how native Kathryn’s Chinese is. She is not a Chinese, she learnt Chinese in China for only very few years, I have no idea why her Chinese can be so native with good local accent! If you are struggling with your immigration problems, please do not waste any time on any seemed to be professional but ‘heartless’ lawyer, if you feel they do not really care about your case, trust your gut feeling and switch to Kathryn as soon as possible. If I could turn back the clock to know Kathryn before I ran into any trouble on my immigration issue, I would have saved a lot of worries, a lot of money wasted on all unused but paid non refundable international air tickets. Hope you can solve your immigration problem as promptly as mine!” – Lana

Review for Kathryn Karam

 September 27, 2013 posted by Sean and Christina

” My husband and I had a very unique situation regarding his immigration status. We had originally filed all of the immigration paperwork ourselves and it was denied due to lack of documentation. We were unaware of the ramification and traveled out of the country. On the way back, we got held up at Customs and he nearly was not able to stay in the country. We had a very short time frame to sort out the paperwork or he would have to leave the country. His employer worked with the legal firm that Kathryn was at and she was assigned to our case. She was fantastic. She took the time to explain the process and what to expect. She made us feel that she genuinely cared about our case and our situation and was always very responsive. Kathryn made it possible for my husband and I to be together and we are thankful that she was assigned to us. Her professionalism and knowledge made me seek her out recently —as she has since moved on to have her own firm—to assist in our future needs. Thanks Kathryn!” – Sean & Christina

5 Star specialist with extraordinary memory

“Kathryn was a key person in handling my very complicated immigration case that was kinda living its own life before she joined. Kathryn brought her expertise and wonderful memory (key skill here actually) to make references to precedents of a case similar to mine to check mate a rejected I-485 and win the case back. Frankly, I was surprised to see how young she is because the professional strength she’s got is usually accumulated by a much senior age. Kathryn is a great find.” – Sergey

Excellent immigration attorney!

“Kathryn worked with my husband and I on our Permanent Residancy immigration case and was such a wonderful help all the way through the process. We found her to be extremely knowledgeable and a true professional in all legal matters; but, most importantly, she made the process seamless with her outstanding communication, guiding us through the process every step of the way. Our dealings with her were outstanding – we felt like we were in the hands of a true professional, and never had any hitches at all with the proceedings. I would recommend her services to anyone looking for a top class immigration attorney – she was awesome and we thank her for all her help!” – Charlotte

 

Effective and personable!

” Ms. Karam handled two cases for me and my family. These cases had issues until she accepted to work with us. Her approach, professionalism, and compassion for her clients was admirable. She successfully got a deportation order for my sibling overturned and subsequently got his status adjusted and regularized. Her knowledge of immigration law and procedures was evident when I saw her efficiently and effectively justify why my sibling should be given residency in immigration court. I was impressed with her grasp of multiple languages in court which highlights the ease with which she can work with diverse populations. Ms. Karam also worked on an employment related status adjustment for me which was approved despite the slim chances I had in qualifying for that status category. Through her write-up, she was able to write out, itemize, and bring out my potentials and skills in a way I can only describe as amazing. She is a personable and compassionate person. Her abilities to work with clients face-to-face, or over long distances is a huge plus that was important for me and my family given we are scattered all over the country. She was willing to go the extra mile to get paperwork and documentation from other states by making use of her vast network of partners and collaborators she works with. This was time saving and huge for us. Unlike most attorneys I have worked with, Ms. Karam has kept in touch and is at our disposal when we have any issues related to these cases. This shows that she cares and wants the best for her clients. I will recommend her and work with her any time. She is unique!” – Mafany

 

I highly endorse, recommend Kathryn as an immigration lawyer

 July 28, 2013 posted by Wayne

“We were in a very difficult situation, after having been in the immigration process for well more than a decade, we came to find ourselves in a very discouraging situation. We sought Kathryn’s help, she turned out to be very knowledgeable on immigration matters, and she is experienced in litigation, and creative on legal matters, with undaunted fighting spirit. I did talk with some other immigration lawyers, I have to say, some of them were very discouraged at the complexity and challenging nature of our case and they kind of cringed back. She filed a very complicated and eloquent case on our behalf. When I read it , I found the level of sophistication and persuasiveness was outstanding. We received legal status after she filed our case. I highly endorse and recommend Kathryn for anyone who needs immigration service.” – Wayne

“Kathryn is an outstanding lawyer, her brilliance, courage, compassion helped my family navigate through a very difficult situation and we are finally green card holders. My case was a very troubled case, we had denied, revoked applications prior retaining Kathryn’s help. We had been turned down by quite a few lawyers, they thought our case was not likely to be approved. But Kathryn was a fighter, she is very smart and very tough, she devised brilliant strategy to help us, when we were so scared, she calmed us down and she was able to argue her way through the immigration process. She is a brilliant fighter, she can do really hard cases where other lawyers saw no help. She got us green card when we lost our hope. I endorse Kathryn 1000%.” – H Yu

“Kathryn’s legal team provided excellent service and advice for my husband and I as we were working towards my US Citizenship (he is a born US citizen, me a Thai citizen) while we were stationed overseas working for one of the world’s largest Oil & Gas Companies and America’s third largest Corporation. Under INA 319(B) “Expeditious Naturalization for Spouses of U.S Citizens Employed Abroad” and Kathryn’s guidance, we were able to complete the process of going from LPR to US citizen in 14 weeks. Kathryn is a pleasure to deal with; knowledgeable, reliable and very efficient. We received a high level of service and care from Kathryn and her team. We only had to travel to the US (Houston, TX) once for my interview and oath ceremony. Kathryn was able to get my interview 1 week in advance of the oath ceremony so we handled everything in one trip. Saved us time, money and hassle, which is exactly what we were looking for. Thanks Kathryn and team! I would highly recommend Kathryn’ services to any organization or individual. ” – Patra Norris

“The advice was great! No problem with that. They just don’t warn you that no matter if you talk on the phone for 15 min, 30 min, or 1 hour, you are still getting billed for a full hour. I tried to keep my phone call as short and efficient as possible to save money, it was 15 minutes and I still got billed for the full hour.” – Brenda Merino Perez Fernandez

“Kathryn, Nadine and all her staff are professional, responsive and caring throughout the whole process for my H1B petition. These are qualities rarely found in immigration attorneys nowadays. I submitted my H1B petition in 2014 by another well known firm in Houston but was struggling during the process. Then I met Katie and Nadine and decided to go with them. They answered all of my questions and concerns, and assured me with a detailed plan and timeline. My case was approved a few days ago with no RFE, and thank you Kathry, Nadine and everybody. They worked hard to help all their clients because they deeply understand the current situation for immigrants. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who is facing any kind of immigration challenge. They are top notch and won’t disappoint you.” – Yanting Wang

“I consider myself very fortunate that I found Ms.Kathryn N Karam to be the attorney for my Naturalization related procedures. Being stationed overseas for personal reasons at the time, my case had quite a few time constraints and required special paperwork. Ms. Karam and her firm helped me through all the forms, documentation and preparations for the interview, and other related proceedings in such a manner that it all turned out seamless and hassle free from my end. She is clearly an expert in her field and is a very efficient person. I will readily recommend Ms.Karam to anyone requiring professional assistance with their Immigration and Naturalization process.” – Sarita R

“Kathryn – and her staff – were recommended to my wife and I by my wifes colleagues at Chevron in July 2014. We were looking to see what options we would have for a green card application and ultimately decided to go down the route of an EB11 after a nice informal chat about our options. Kathryn and Nadine worked with me closely over the next 5 months to gather all of the evidence I needed and were friendly and prompt in their responses at all times. The shear volume of paperwork and the fine detail of the whole package was impressive to say the least. Their office submitted the documentation in January 2015 – premium processing – and I had approval within 1 week! That approval was down to the efforts of Kathryn, Nadine and the rest of their staff in making sure that the application was water tight and that I was not wasting my time. My EAD was approved in April 2015 and I am happily still working with Kathryn and Nadine while I await the approval of my AOS and Green Card. I cannot recommend this law office enough, they are friendly, efficient and clearly know their stuff, keeping me updated at all times on the status of my application.” – Craig Barrie

“Kathryn has helped us with both an O-1 visa and immigration for my husband. We pursued this process from overseas and our experience with Kathryn was fantastic. She promptly replied to every email and question (and we had plenty of both) which was crucial because of job related time constraints. She has a deep knowledge of immigration laws and helped through any complications. Kathryn has a strong team (Katrina, Nadine and Jessica) who all together are not just friendly and supportive but also a joy to work with. We recommend Kathryn’s office without any reservation. ” – Lindsey Naufal

“When I first met Kathryn Karam, it was assisting my employer to get me out of an ICE detention center. At that point, I didn’t realize how a mistake I had made 10 years before was going to continue to affect my life. Kathryn’s advice at that time was that my situation needed time, but there was a possibility of citizenship down the road. Four years passed and I looked Kathryn up again. I wanted to see if enough time had passed and see what my chances were at obtaining citizenship. I was surprised that without much introduction, she remembered my name and my girlfriends as well. I knew at that moment that if anyone was going to help me, it would be her. So, as of October 1st I was sworn in as a US Citizen. Thank you Kathryn and your team. I can never repay how much you have helped me, but anyone I know who needs an immigration lawyer will be calling you!!!” – Frank Rangel

“Kathryn Karam and her team assisted me in my naturalization application. My case was not straight forward but Kathryn was very good at clearly outlining a strategy. I dealt with her across several time zones and she even flew out to CA for my interview. She was focused and tenacious – even when first indications weren’t in favor of my application, she stuck with it and continued on the outlined path.” – Urs Widmer

“After a very unpleasant experience with a previous attorney, Ms. Karam and her team came in to save our day with great expertise and savvy understanding of immigration issues. From the get-go, she took the time to listen carefully about our case, did her own research and came back to us with an elaborate course of action to obtain our L-1/L-2 visas. After that first meeting, she went the extra mile to gather, evaluate and compile all the information needed, not only to file our application within a short time frame (our I-94 was a month away to expire) but also to assemble an extremely cogent presentation of our case. Everybody in her staff made us feel that every single aspect of our case was being taken care of at all times at all different levels of the firm. But the most remarkable fact was the eloquence and appropriateness of the response letter to the RFE. Right then, we knew she was fully committed to get the job done. We received our legal status in no time and are now ready to start operations of our new office in Houston. I look forward to hire her services for family and friends in the near future. Thanks Kathryn, Nadine, Jessica and Katrina!” – Marlon, Adriana and Aaron.

” I would like to strongly recommend Kathryn Karam for her outstanding work and effort put into my immigration case, which let to success on my legal case. I had tried with other lawyers before to obtain citizenship and none of them gave me a correct answer for my case until I contact Kathryn. She was able with her hard work and dedication to show and explain my rights to obtain my citizenship. I would like to recommend her to all who are out there looking for an immigration lawyer to consider Kathryn as it will be a warranty to success. Also, she was able to help out my brother with his immigration case, and it was successful too. I would like to mention and make clear that she is a certified lawyer and she is very good at providing information to her clients, she explains all issues and provides accurate answers, which contributed to the success on my case. Previously, I had contacted other lawyers in Maryland, Virginia, and in Texas but all of them weren’t giving me accurate responses because they were not certified lawyers. All the lawyers I meet previously were not as professional and seem to charge abusive fees. Kathryn Karam is very fair with her pricing, and eventhough she is younger than other lawyers, she is quite clever and has a lot of knowledge.” – Marce T
