Somewhere Beyond Manhattan

When we researched a law firm to handle our immigration and citizenship process, we really did our homework to make sure we had the best team to help with a complicated situation. Larry and his team--especially Yvonne--were hands down everything we expected and more. Along the way, and as issues arose, they were there to guide us through and help us with all the right answers, advice and recommendations every single time. Let me repeat that: Every Single Time. The knowledge and expertise that Yvonne offered when we called with questions, whether completing forms or preparing for interviews was stellar, top notch and right on point. In short, I would say that the investment in moving forward with Larry Holmes and his amazing team is the best money we ever spent. We are now both PROUD and THANKFUL CITIZENS!! Thanks Larry, Yvonne and the entire team

I reached out to Holmes & Ramos Immigration Attorneys LLP in August of 2013, shortly after proposing to my future bride to be in the Philippines. My fiancé and I were extremely excited but overcome by the process and forms to be submitted, knowing that any unintended error would add substantially more time to the process and possibly even require refiling. We did not want to make a mistake and add further delays to the process. We contacted Lawrence Holmes for help and he did. The staff diligently and thoughtfully work to gather all the needed information for filing the K1 visa. I'm truly thankful for all of their help along the way, patiently reassuring us every step of the way. I'm grateful to say that after 10 months my fiancé and I were united again. I want to thank Lawrence Holmes and his paralegal Yvonne for all of their time and help. After my wife and I were married, we continued with Lawrence Holmes, for the 2 year green card filing process, than after two years, the filling for the removal of conditions, for the 10 year green card and "Permanent" resident status, and finally for my wife's naturalization process. Which she received this month 01/2019! The care, the thoughtfulness, the willingness to answer a call or email, the reassurance and diligence that Lawrence Holmes and his paralegal Yvonne showed to us was excellent. Lawrence Holmes and Yvonne has faithfully worked with us from start to finish from 2013 to 2019, which has been blessing. You guys have been a part of our story from the beginning and my wife and I are grateful for it.

It was the second time we hired Mr Holmes’ team of professionals to work on my wife’s immigration process. Yvonne is the Paralegal Specialist who successfully helped us both times. We are extremely satisfied with her services. She is very nice and professional and has always answered all of our questions clearly and in a timely manner. My wife and I are very thankful to Yvonne who did a wonderful job on my wife’s adjustment of status and on the removal of conditions of her residence. We highly recommend Mr Holmes and Ramos Immigration Attorneys LLP to anyone who needs help going through their immigration process.

When my (now) foreign husband and I decided to get married, we knew this was going to be a tough process. I knew I wanted to find someone, who had lots of experience and reasonable priced.
After searching for a few months and interviewing several Lawyers, I came across Larry's, (Mr Holmes), K1visa, web site. I sent in my contact information and with in 1 or 2 days, I got a call back. Not from the secretary or other office staff, but from Larry Himself. He was personable, and took his time to answer my dozens of questions.
When we finally hired him it was about a year later. I sent him an email, re-introducing myself, and he picked up the phone and called me. He told me then, ANYTIME I had any questions just call.
I really like the organization of this office. With each step in the process, we were given a "To Do" list,, in which we followed to the letter. This is very precise, and takes good record keeping on your part, but I cannot stress the importance of doing this, as they lay it ALL out for you. It will save you time and money in the future.
Larry and Diana ( our contact), delivered as promised! We started the Process July 7, 2016 and my fiance arrived May 9th, 2018. Less than 1 year! We were married May 23rd, 2017.
Coming to America for my husband is a still on-going process, and we will continue to hire Mr. Holmes and his team for each step. He was just approved for his 2 year green card, on Oct 16th, 2018.
Our next step will be in 2 years, when we file for "Permanent" resident, and I will hire Larry and Diana again.

Our experience using this firm for my Kenyan husband's CR-1 (spousal) visa exceeded our expectations. Diana was our primary contact and she displayed strong knowledge, attention to detail, and customer service skills. I should say she also has a ton of patience as we inundated her with questions at times! Her responses were always prompt, detailed and professional yet friendly. She was more than capable of handling our case and we only needed to converse with Lawrence or Christopher in the beginning. The steps for the CR-1 visa are many (not to mention time consuming and lengthy - not a fault of anyone, it is just the process) and Diana kept us on track until we got to the finish line. After 1 year and 6 days we received the approval we were longing for! My husband and I keep saying that engaging this law firm was worth every penny. They helped us through an intimidating and emotional process with positive results. What more could we ask for?

I've been working with Lawrence and Diana since 2017 and they have been very helpful and knowledgeable. We were so happy with the service provided from start to finish. The process for me to get a K1 Visa as a UK citizen to marry my American fianceé was made easy and smooth, thanks to them. Every question or doubt we had was always answered. Diana was very professional and of great help and always responded promptly to our emails. We are so thankful to Holmes and Ramos Immigration Attorneys. I believe strongly that there is no better way of dealing with immigration.

I've been working with Lawrence and Yvonne since 2014 and the have been very helpful and knowledgeable. The process for me to get a US greencard as a Brazilian citizen has been pretty long (as expected from anything government related), but easy and smooth, thanks to them. I always recommend them to friends and believe strongly that there is no better way of dealing with immigration.

We are unbelievably satisfied with the service we received from start to finish. Lawrence Richard Holmes and his group were amazing. In 11 months I was able to have my husband here from Egypt. Every question or doubt we had was always answered. They made it easy. Yvonne was a great help. She always answered all my questions promptly. I am so thankful to Lawrence Richard Holmes and his group. I would strongly recommend them to anyone.

We worked with Yvonne for my K1 and she helped us in a timely manner and answered our extensive questions. She was very supportive and despite the 2 and 3 hour time difference, she was able to respond quickly and throughly to our emails. We are rehiring Lawrence R. Holmes to have Yvonne assist us in my AOS as well. Highly recommend!

They took the stress out the process! It was a pleasure to work with Yvonne and she made it a breeze to walk through the procedures. We've used them for two different immigration actions and I would recommend you let them help navigate the immigration law instead of trying it on your own - they are expert at what they do.

My wife is American and I am British. We got married in 2014 and needed an immigration attorney to help me attain a conditional permanent resident status to live and work in the U.S.A. Lawrence R. Holmes, and specifically, Yvonne, our Paralegal Specialist, worked their magic and made this a reality. Yvonne led us through the paperwork and steps that would need to be taken (such as what evidence to collect and which interviews to attend, etc.). I'm sure that my wife and I could have found this information out for ourselves but a) why risk making a clerical error that will set your application back or possibly get denied, and b) why make the extra work for yourself? We couldn't be happier with the services provided by Lawrence R. Holmes and, now that our 10 year green card was approved, we will be retaining their services for the naturalization process so I can become a U.S. Citizen.

p.s. Yvonne is the best.

From my green a card application some years ago when I first came to the US to my successful naturalization application & granting of my US citizenship status in 2018.
I highly recommend Lawrence and his legal team.
Thank you all so very much!

If I could give a zero I would. The only words I got out of the agent named Christopher I spoke to , in the most condescending and rude tone I have ever received was "hi", "Shoot", "Are you Trying to figure it out yourself or hire someone to do it for you" after I asked my initial question and explained I had done some research. I asked "Sorry what" and he proceeded to repeat himself in the same tone and manner. I said that "The website is misleading then as if it says a free consultation and I personally think he's being extremely rude" and he burst out laughing and I hung up.

After contemplating for filing for my fiancé myself I went with kvisa after a friend recommended it after having success with her own immigration process. Diana was my contact at the office who we dealt with primarily. They reviewed all of our documents so clearly and caught things that we would have missed for sure.

I’m based in Michigan and this company is in California so I had my hesitation regarding this but they communicated in a timely manner. Documents were easily scanned back and forth electronically and mailed overnight if needed.

I know they tell you a longer anticipated time to not get our hopes up but getting approval news faster was always exciting! Also they’re a company that will guide you but you always have your own best interests at heart - so keep following up, keep checking because in the end it’s for you.

So thankful to have their guidance in starting our marriage without unnecessary stress. I have been raving about their service and highly recommend everyone use a lawyer for their kvisa process.

Everyone that I've dealt with in this firm has been so helpful every step of the way in the K1 visa process. I have used them from the start and are now using them in helping my wife attain her citizenship. Using them was the right choice.

hired Kvisa which is rebranded as Lawrence Richard Holmes llc. I was sceptical to hire an attorney based on what I found on internet. And they are from California and I live in Minnesota. But trust me, it was such an awesome experience. Yvonne was the paralegal who worked with me on the case to file my green card and later processed my citizenship. They made things very smooth and help me guide though every step. Very prompt in answering the questions and you need someone like this to deal your immigration. Even if they don't live here, I never felt alone. Very good and I will always recommend them for immigration process. What I wrote here is my experience and it's true. Thanks Yvonne for all your help.

I hired Holmes and Ramos last year (2018) to assist me and my wife with our immigration procedures. At first, everything seemed overwhelming, with what seemed like hundred of papers to review, and thousands of things to fill out and sign (and with the threat of one mistake sending my papers into a limbo of more requests for evidence).

Thankfully, my paralegal expert assigned to me, Yvonne, was there to help me through every single one of my questions. She was easily available by phone or email, and my countless questions were always answered in a timely manner. I honestly cannot extend my thanks enough to Yvonne.

Thank you again, Yvonne.
And thank you, Holmes and Ramos, for helping us get our Green Card so easily and painlessly.

Yvonne was my case manager for my husband's marriage visa from Egypt and she did an excellent job. Always returned calls and emails - made us very comfortable during the stressful process. This was the best service I have EVER received from an atty's office and they do a great job taking care of their customers.

We hired Lawrence R. Holmes Immigration 5 years ago to help with my husband's application for citizenship. They did a spectacular job and absolutely everything happened when they promised it would. We could not have done it without their help, especially our paralegal Diana Nunez, who was always so kind and helpful. She was delightful and professional to work with - we only have rave reviews of their firm. My husband became a US citizen last week and we are absolutely thrilled. We highly recommend this immigration law firm to everyone who is facing this process. They are without question the very best of the best and will get the job done for you. We HIGHLY recommend their firm to you. Call today and rest assured you'll be in excellent hands.

Super considerate, 100% honest, 100% legal. They know the law, they help you set up a strategy, define a timeline, tell you what to expect, prepare you, and then ... it happens! Great work especially by Yvonne.

If you are not in San Diego, this is not the law firm for you. I and my wife had a horrible time during our two interviews because these lawyers will not show up. We had to hire another law firm and pay thousands of dollars extra to get good representation. Chris is all talk and little action.

My husband and I hired Lawrence R Holmes Immigration Attorney in January 2017, as we prepared to leave Dubai to move to the U.S.. My husband is a U.S. citizen, I am a U.K. citizen and we met in Dubai almost 6 years ago. Having tried to learn about the immigration process for myself and feeling completely lost as to how we were going to navigate through this, we made the decision to hire an attorney and I am so glad we did. Diana was a huge help to us over the course the of the year, providing clear and coherent advice and always efficient in her response to our many, many questions. We also believe their services were great value for money, when we think about what we paid against the level of support we received over a 12 month period. I dread to think how difficult this would have been without their help and am happy to say we are now settling in nicely into life in the U.S. together.

Yvonne needs a raise! ;)
We have been using this law firm since 2014. First for a conditional green card and then for the removal of status. From the moment we called Lawrence we knew we were in good hands. He asked us about the situation and gave us the solution and how much it would cost. We were assigned Yvonne which have helped us with both cases and and you couldn't meet a more wonderful paralegal ever. She understands you, have greatly patience and answers all emails and questions promptly. We are re-hiring them for naturalization because they and especially Yvonne are the BEST! We are based out of Los Angeles and we couldn't have found a better lawyer anywhere.

My wife and I started the immigration process on our own and ran into some issues. Not knowing what to do, we were referred to kvisas. Since working with them, we had no problems at all. We are living all the way in Virginia and Diana who handled our case made the whole process so smooth and hassle free. There were no surprise fees and we would always receive updates on where we were in the whole process. If you’re thinking about hiring these guys then look no further. They are the best around.

We choose this firm per the reviews that we read online and they did not disappoint. Yvonne handled our case and she was wonderful to work with, all emails and phone calls promptly answered with our questions or concerns. Our interview for my husband's adjustment of status was 10-19-17, we were approved on the spot and with a week had the green card.

Had I known about Lawrence R Holmes, international immigration attorney before I started the K1 visa process, I would have hired him immediately. He handled the stateside portion of my case and successfully handled every stage of the process. The legal Assistant he assigned to us, Yvonne, was totally instrumental in preparing me for each stage of the process. I owe our success to her efforts. They are well versed in the international Immigration process and worth the investment.

I was surfing the web for immigration information and called a number after hours last night. This morning I received a call from Chris, representing Lawrence R. Holmes immigration. And this well informed gentleman, actually provided me with the answers I needed. Right then and there. He saved my Australian friend from getting turned away at immigration.

Thank you so much for your help!!
