Excellent service. We found the firm through a recommendation. We had a video call meeting where Dr. Karine patiently explained to us the possible immigration options for the U.S. and attentively clarified all our questions. Very satisfied. I recommend it.
We had a consultation with Dr. Otávio, and he was extremely professional and insightful. He answered all our questions and presented us with the most appropriate action plans. After this consultation, we decided to hire HS Law Corp services with the confidence that we are working with a responsible team that will do everything possible for the success of our case.
