Simply the Best!

I know Mr. Sherman and his team for more than 10 years now. I have to confess that my immigration case was one of the most difficult and sophisticated cases that may happen for any attorneys. I worked with other attorneys too before and during the last 10 years and by far Mike is the best. His knowledge, professional attitude and kindness are exemplary. Honestly I am always overwhelmed with his passion and kindness to go over and beyond his line of duties for my case which started 10 years ago and now finally all my family and I succeeded to be US citizens, only because of him and his dedication. I have no hesitation recommending this strong, passionate, knowledgeable lawyer and his solid team as your best friend along your way for any immigration legal cases you may have. And I believe he is the best bet for you in these difficult and stressful situations.

Would Give Him More Stars if I Could

Mike facilitated my husband's green card processing. Unlike other immigration lawyers we encountered in the past, Mike was always available for updates and questions - whether via email or phone, even on weekends. If he happened to be in court, his assistant replied asap. He gave updates as soon as they came. We felt that he gave our case/petition his full undivided attention. The entire green card process was clearly explained to us and it went smoothly from start to finish under his care. His services were no less than exceptional.

Thanks Mike!!

Very helpful and thorough. Excellent knowledge on immigration related issues. He dealt with our J1 waiver process which was very difficult in state of Ohio yet he got it approved. Also subsequently on green card process he helped us in time.

Regarding Green Card Consultation Needs

Mr Sherman is very thorough in his work and explanation. I hired him for my H1B paperwork and Green card filing with my previous employees and consulted him regarding green card needs when i moved to new employer. He is always available and proactive. He is very good with paperwork and you as a client will be assured and have peace of mind when he is on your case. I will definitely recommend Mr Sherman for your visa/Green card needs.

Simply Outstanding!

I have known Mike for several years now. I was first introduced to him through employer for my H1b and since then Mike has worked on my H1b and through permanent residence. He has always been on the top of the things. His work ethics and professionalism are outstanding and made me very comfortable in dealing with him. He was very approachable and despite his busy schedule, he was prompt in his email correspondence. He has excellent knowledge and he answered any questions promptly that arise during the process. He made sure that he was there with me every step of the way during the process. He is very diligent in his work, dedicated and personable, which sets him apart in his field. It was a great pleasure knowing and getting benefited from the expertise of such a great professional and above all a very humble human being.

Great Super Experience With Mike

You will not regret hiring Mike. I delt with so many professionals in my life, I have not seen any thing similar to him! When I email him. He would reaponse right back! Likely literally immediately! I applied for a green card with him. First day i started my new job, he had all my papers ready and we filed the application in the fastest way yet most accurate. You can tell how much of a perfectionist he is after you receive a mail from him. Every thing is so organized and clear. His attention to details is superb! He will guide you throw every step of the way! And explain everything carefully! First I thought all lawyers were like this, but boy i have a friend who had his application delayed few months because his lawyer forgot to correct the address!

Jandali

Top-notch professionalism; knows what he is doing to the last detail. Explains every step of the process and anticipate what problems might be encountered based on your case facts and what solutions are available - he is proactive and takes all the necessary steps to avoid any issues. I worked with him for the last 3 years and had no problem.

Excellent

Mike Sherman is an excellent immigration lawyer, nice person and was very prompt in replying my emails. We were not very satisfied with our first lawyer and I am glad we switched to Mike. Got our green card two years ahead of the initial planned date. Hard to beat that. I would recommend Mike to anyone without any reservations!

Mike Sherman Is, BY FAR, the Best Lawyer but More Importantly He Is a Great Person!

Mike Sherman makes the process of becoming a US citizen a very pleasant one. His experience, professionalism, promptness, thoroughness, and especially sincerity are like no other. He is very experienced, smart, and WILL ultimately help anyone accomplish their goal, but he also has this extremely pleasant personality which makes him very easy to approach for any questions or clarifications. With him, every single step of the process was an easy, clear, and painless one. He is thorough, helpful, and walked me through it in a way that I never had to worry about anything. The peace of mind with him is priceless! I wish him all the best and I highly recommend him!

Mohamad El Mortada
Excellent!

In my case, Mike was on top of all the paperwork and legal procedures involved, he responded to queries promptly and comprehensively, and he knew what was to be done (and not done) and when and how. I couldn't have asked for better service!

Review of Michael Sherman

Mike is a great immigration attorney. He is thorough, responsive, understands immigration law and regulations in detail, etc. He is also a nice person. It has been such a pleasure to work with him over the last few years.

Mary
Meticulous, Responsive & Efficient!

True professional. Efficient. Responsive. Meticulous! So meticulous. I am so happy with Mike and his service. I have my green card exactly 7.5 months after my start date at my job. Now part of that may have been luck with the USCIS but it also certainly has to do with Mike's amazing abilities. He and his office are so efficient with processing of material. He was never the "rate limiting step". That's important. He responds to questions and concerns almost instantly (some times less that 2-3 minutes!!!) by email. I would 110% recommend him to anybody. Especially to all physicians.

Jubeen
Best Immigration Attorney I Have Ever Known

I am a physician, I worked with Michael Sherman (Mike), since 2008 till 2013, He worked on my H1B, then it's extension, later new H1B from a different employer, and finally green card for me and my wife. He is always thorough, on top of things, amazingly quick to respond to your questions, very professional and understands your specific needs and expectations. I know more than 60 medical residents who had their H1 documents filed thorough him, all were happy and none of them ever complained about anything. My new employer had a different immigration firm working for them, they were not close to being called efficient or responsive. We made our employer switch to Mike and have no problem ever since. Green card case of my wife was detached from mine by USCIS, so it was not approved at the same time. Mike called them and she got her green card in 10 days. I would recommend Mike Sherman for any kind of immigration matters.

Dr. Mansoor
The Best Immigration Lawyer

My experience with Mr.Sherman has been a positive one along the spectrum, and it was my utmost pleasure to have worked with him. As this was the first time going through the process of applying for a Green Card, I often had many questions and clarifications. Mr.Sherman always replied to my questions in a polite, prompt and detailed manner. He is an expert at what he does and that was evident very early on in my interactions with him. Furthermore, in the beginning he explained every step of the green card process and gave me a clear time frame for each step. Mr.Sherman is also very detailed oriented and catches any error quickly. I appreciated the fact that he kept me up to date with any new information. In summary, Mr.Sherman is reliable, sincere, dependable, and trustworthy and I highly recommend him and I am confident that if you become his client, you will be in good hands.

Excellent Lawyer

Michael Sherman is the best lawyer I worked with. He handled my green card case until approval very efficiently and surrounded it with his distinguished skills all time. He was very fast in response to any question or concern, he was available immediately to me when I needed any inquiry. We did have trouble with our I-485 application with a previous lawyer which resulted in a one year delay for approval because of mistake of ignorance, I was told about Michael by many colleagues who have their application approved quickly and timely, I did contact him and he saved my case after he highlighted some very crucial points other lawyer did not address. H e gave a timeline for the application approval process which was very accurate. Me and my family would like to acknowledge his distinguished skills which saved our case from impending denial because of the mistake caused by my previous lawyer. I think hiring him was one of the most wise decisions I made in my life, and would like to recommend him without any conservations. On a separate not, you will not have anybody you know who responds to e-mail as fast and nice as he does.. The good comes to you if you are lucky to know that he is there to help you.

Ammar
Professional and Personal Attorney you Need!

Mike is very professional and personal to me - prompt reply, informative and up-to-date answers, proactive guidance, takes note to my personal circumstances, knows my family members by names and regard us all like friends and makes suggestions beyond the case consult requirement. Through Mike, I got my H1b to enter US to work in Jun 2011, and in Aug 2012, we filed the EB2/NIW, case approved in Oct, and we applied for adjustment of status in Nov, and by May 2012 - we got our greencard (ie. 9 months from NIW application to GC!). Also, his pricing for service is very fair in contrast to other immigration services. There are many great experiences we had with Mike, and in summary, I would recommend him to all my friends and family without reservation (and I have already done so).

Gary Huang MD
Best Immigration Lawyer

Michael Sherman has been our (mine and my wife's) immigration lawyer since we got in US in 2004. He is very honest, responsive, approachable and timely. We had to work with a couple of lawyers more because of the employer preference but Michael Sherman is the best. We just got our Green cards recently and I think , Michael Sherman was there every step of the way. He will email you detail answers to your questions and that to in timely fashion. When I was looking for a job on H1B ( I was on H4 visa) he would take time to answer my questions also. In nutshell he is the immigration lawyer if you need one and that too a "Good One".

I am thoroughly satisfied with his service. I would sincerely recommend him to anyone for their immigration needs.

Great Service!

We had Mike helping us with getting our Green Cards. He's been awesome! Mike is great lawyer and a wonderful person. Keep up the good work, Mike!

Cristian
Thanks Mike

We (me and my husband) met Mike when my husband was getting his green card processed. He was with amother lawyer before but later found that his file had not been followed up and was referred to Mike by a friend. This came at a juncture when I (a physician)was applying for a residency program at a local hospital and awaiting a H1 visa. The program had offered me a position on the condition that I need to have got my H1 visa by the start date of the program. I cannot put in words the stress of the whole process. Mike , kept us posted of every little development and when he got my visa approved the first thing he did was fax it to my employer. he understood our urgency and was so supportive. We got our GC in 2005 and the process we expected to be stressful went so smoothly. We are now citizens and feel that mike is a part of our family. I am a practicing physician and he is somebody I reach out to for any kind of legal issues. He is a thorough professional with extensive experience in immigration issues. Even after our immigration process has been over we still keep in touch with him. We were lucky to have him as our lawyer. Thanks a ton Mike.

Karthika
Excellent Immigration Lawyer in the USA!

I just got my green card yesterday with the help of Mike and I am so thankful for knowing him . I have asked the assistance of Mike since I was an intern/resident in the Chicago area.He was the one who filed my H1b, concurrent H1b and my green card; everything came out smoothly as expected and I never had a simple problem. Just like any patient who likes a physician who knows what he`s doing and who wants someone to always update him of any progress of his/her problem. I have chosen Mike to do my green card processing after I finished my residency and moved to a new employer because he is very professional, he knows what exactly he`s doing and he always updates me if there is anything new about my application. He is not just a lawyer who just wants to get or earn dollars from you; he has a humane part in himself and knows what an immigrant like myself is experiencing in this long process; he`ll tell you every step of the application process.A very distinct quality of Mike is that he is very approachable and responsive; you can always ask or e-mail him anything about your immigration questions and you will always get an immediate reply from him if not on that day itself, it will be the following day or working day. I will definitely ask Mike for any immigration questions that I have in the future and I strongly recommend him without any reservation to anyone who is looking for an excellent immigration lawyer.

Are You Looking for a Superior Immigration Lawyer? Look No Further!

I have never dealt with a lawyer quite like Mike. He responds immediately to all inquiries. He is unfailingly cheerful, polite, patient and helpful, even when he's at his busiest. He is astoundingly knowledgeable. He pursues his objectives flawlessly and in a timely manner. And you can trust him to keep you on the right side of the law every step of the way. I was seeking an H1-B visa for a single employee and I receive the sort of attentiveness and diligence one might expect if I were I big-ticket client. I consider myself fortunate to have hired him and I would recommend him without reservation to anyone who might inquire.

Paul Basile
Excellent

Mr. Sherman made my journey from H1B to Green Card very smooth and pleasant. His work was very efficient and professional. I received detailed updates regarding my case status and what should I expect during my applications. He always answered my question in detail and unbelievably fast, even when he wasn't in the office! I consider myself very lucky to find him 4 years back when I first came to US!

Cristian
The Best Immigration Attorney Ever!!

I have worked with Mr. Michael Sherman for almost five years. He helped me prepare all my applications for H1-B visa as well as my green card. Through those five years, I have found him very trustworthy, honest, experienced and friendly. He always answered my questions in details. He was always very prompt in replying back. He always kept me informed about the progress of my case. Inspite I didn't have a lot of experience with attorneys, I do believe that Mr. Sherman represents an excellent example of how an attorney should act in terms of professionalism, integrity and experience.

Mike Is the BEST! It Is As Simple as That

I am a Foreign Medical Graduate and I will be starting my Residency in Internal Medicine in a month's time. I was introduced to this gem of a person, and this amazing lawyer by my cousin who is a Surgeon here in the United States. I was here on a B1 visa. I was totally unaware of the intricacies of the United States Visa Policies. I was also unaware of all the pros and cons of the steps that I was planning to take in order to get myself a position on a work visa. I asked Mike about all my difficulties. I wrote a long naive and amateurish email to him asking all sorts questions and all sorts of doubts in mind. I was amazed at his prompt responsiveness. His advice was not only detailed but it was also to the point. I might add here that he extended free advice to me over email for the first twenty or so emails that we exchanged. This was because he made sure I knew everything that could possibly happen with my case if I were to take a certain step. Mike will always respond to emails. The response will almost certainly be within the next hour. His advice is always personalized. He treats you as a person, and not as a case number. A few hours ago, I received both my H1B approval and my B1 Extension approval. I had a chance to see how diligently he complied my applications to the USCIS for review. I am very, VERY impressed with him as a person as well. He is polite, well versed, and well learned. He knows everything there is about Visitor visas(B1/B2) and H1B. In short, I have already recommended Mike to all my colleagues. I will recommend him with my eyes closed to anyone and I wish him all the happiness, health and a successful career in the future.

Mike helped me through my initial H1B visa, its renewal and, more recently, my green card. Overall, my experience was great. He is highly efficient. Stays ahead of things. I would never have to push him to get things done. He responds to emails instantaneously, even occasionally at odd hours. He ensured that the process was as smooth as possible, and minimized stress and hurdles. Would certainly work with him again!

Great Immigration Attorney

It was my good fortune the day an incoming resident introduced me to his immigration attorney, Mike Sherman. Over the years, I had worked with several attorneys, all of whom were competent and professional. But Mike is that and more. I coordinate a residency program in the Chicago area that uses Mike’s services for obtaining H1-B visas for the residents. Our hospital is part of a much larger healthcare system, which also uses Mike Sherman for all of its immigration needs. I only am familiar with the H1-B visa process, but I know that several of our graduates who are now pursuing green cards with Mike’s assistance. Mike is honest, available, smart and I’m just happy to be able to work with him exclusively. A great attorney for your immigration needs.

Kathie
He Has Been There for Our Family Ever Since We Came to the U.S.

He have been one of the most (if not THE most) professional people I have worked with since I came to the U.S. I am referring colleagues (physicians) to him without hesitation. I think he does an outstanding job, not only as far as the applications themselves, but also and especially as far as interpersonal communication (he emails me back faster than most of my personal friends!). Thank you, Mr. Sherman, and please don't ever change your law practice style! :)
