HEAR FROM OUR PAST CLIENTS

Ed Litwin's firm did a great job helping my mom. Everyone at the company was friendly and fast responses to calls and emails. I highly recommend this firm.

I took a leap of faith based on the firm's reviews online... Once I became his client and his firm handled my case with a successful outcome, I understood why they are highly rated and trusted by the community.

Ed did an excellent job preparing us for the consulate interview, both in terms of presenting the facts and also preparing for the behavioral portion too. Without his coaching on how to manage the style of the interview, I'm not sure we would have been successful.

Litwin & Smith firm was very meticulous and attention to detail when providing updates on any immigration changes and statuses. They were very responsive both via email and phone. The experience was simply terrific!

They did what they said they would and they did it quickly and efficiently. Donald even offered to drive to the state I am in (not CA) to do an interview if it was required which was pretty darn cool of him. It didn't come to that, but the gesture was not unnoticed.

I am an HR Manager at a technology company and have worked with Donald Smith and his team on a number of immigration matters, including H1B and L1A visas... I have been extremely happy with Donald's professionalism and the high quality of his work...
