Great experience, great payment options, very helpful and organized office. I will recommend!

INCREDIBLE LAW FIRM WITH FRIENDLY AND AMAZING STAFF

This law firm is just incredible. I have had some bad experiences with other lawyers in the past and was very scared to try a new lawyer. From the first meeting with Mr. Nathan, I felt comfortable and positive. He will not try to scare you and rip you off. He is very direct and honest. He does not charge an enormous fee to represent your case. He will guide you honestly and sincerely and help you in making your case stronger. I strongly recommend this law firm to anyone who is having any type of immigration issues. I am absolutely positive that after visiting this law firm you will not want to consult another lawyer for your case.

Thankful for Nate and his wonderful staff. They are very humble, yet have such strong knowledge and amazing work ethics at what they do. I highly recommend this firm for any immigration case you may have.

Mr. Christensen helped my mother become a US resident. He was very straight to the point and honest to us throughout the entire almost 2 year process. Every time we visited his office, he was very positive and friendly. His entire staff was wonderful. I have recommended him to friends as well since we had a such good experience.

Melissa is an amazing attorney! My husband is in deportation proceedings and she did amazing in front of the judge, I can not imagine him having any better representation. I feel completely blessed with her because thanks to her and god my family is back together.

So nice!

If you are looking for the most amazing, hilarious, down-to-earth and BEST immigration lawyer, NATE is your guy! I met with a few different lawyers before finding Nate and knew immediately he was THE ONE. Nate and his team were absolutely wonderful throughout the whole process and things couldn’t have gone any smoother. They always stayed on top of everything and made everything extremely easy for my husband and I. We honestly didn’t have to worry about a thing. I just received my green card in the mail and we are so thankful to have worked with Nate and his team. One last thing, he is seriously one of the most down-to-earth and hilarious people I’ve ever met in my entire life! You need/want this coolest dude as your immigration lawyer. We will definitely be going to back to him when it’s time for me to apply for my citizenship! Thank you, Nate, for taking great care of us!! :)

Best lawyer in town

Before we came across Nathan, my wife and I had met with several other immigration attorneys who seemed hesitant to take on our case. One attorney even went as far as telling us our case was too difficult. It was then we met with Nathan, who was sincere in expressing his concerns, yet he showed confidence in being able to help us. He and his team were very professional and attentive. Nathan was the only attorney who was able to succeed at what others did not think possible. I highly recommend Nathan Christensen to anybody looking for immigration services!

We cannot thank this man and his team enough for their exemplary service. Professional and caring, he imparted a great sense of calm to what could have been a very stressful process. We fully recommend!

I cannot recommend Nathan enough. He knows everything about the process intimately and ensures such confidence in you that it takes all the stress away from coming through immigration. He is also such a charming person and the girls are also excellent at what they do (as well as being very nice). If you need anything to do with I'm migration Nathan Christensen is the man. Thank you Nathan for everything!

I am SPEECHLESS or rather SHORT OF WORDS to describe how God has used this man to bless me. After going through 2 different lawyers and 5 years wasted, i found Attorney Nathan Christensen, and since then my life has changed. He began working on my case with genuine love and care. He put in all his efforts to ensure i win my case and obtain my permanent residency. By Gods grace, through him, i went from having no papers to a 10 year green card. IF THERE IS ANY SUCH THING GREATER THAN A 5 STAR, HE IS IT!!!! LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, IF YOU HAVE ANY IMMIGRATION ISSUES, I RECOMMEND ATTORNEY. NATHAN CHRISTENSEN 200%. Are you from Africa? Where are you from? Go to him, he will certainly give you the BEST!! Thank you sir and your team for doing such a GREAT job. 1 Luv.

Had no problem at all! Mr Christensen does his job very professionally and I'd totally recommend him to anyone.

Super service...thank's team!!!!

The best immigration lawyer..

He the greatest person to meet you feel like if we like a family with him and everyone who work with him too.

Nathan Christensen is a man that says exactly what he means. After he has thoroughly analyzed your particular situation, he advises you on precisely what needs to be done to get you legal in the United States. There is no better way to say this. He is a straight shooter when it comes to immigration and he hits the 'bullseye' consistently without fail.

Highly recommended!! I have been with countless different lawyers and my case was very complicated ! I met Nathan & Melissa first time before second interview.. Nathan & Melissa helped me be ready 100% and we get approved (10 Y GC ) 3 days after the second interview !
They worth every penny!
Thank you!!!

Excellent service and amazing staff!

I was extremely happy with Nathan Christensen P.C. Law Office for their extraordinary service. Nathan & Melissa both did an outstanding job handling my case all along the process of becoming a US citizen.

I highly recommend Nathan Christensen P.C. for professional and quality legal counsel.

This is the Best Immigration Law Firm in my opinion. If you want the best lawyers working on your case, this is the right place.
--> The Law Office of Nathan Christensen P.C

I am happy to say, Nathan Christensen is the Best Immigration Attorney in Dallas. For me it was a good experience here, Nathan and his Team really helped me a lot in achieving my Permanent Resident. I give him a 10 star review!!!!!

Dear Nathan, I want to thank you for everything you have done for me. You have truly been there for me every time I had any questions or help. You are extremely professional and do your job well. Your work speaks volumes of the kind of man you are – efficient, organized and
result-oriented. Thanks a lot.

This Law Office is amazing, I laud everyone in their employ. From the moment you first deal with...the front desk (Esther and Daisy), you know you are being well represented. They helped me so much. I only had to visit their office once and they were able to do so much for me. My assigned Paralegal (Gloria)helped me so much, she kept me updated and comfortable throughout the whole processes. Thank you so much .

I DID make the right choice going with The Law Office of Nathan - Christensen P.C.... and I will always recommend them to anyone needing an attorney for their immigration needs to take care of and to do an excellent job too! Once Again... Thank You and Bless your hearts."

(Translated by Google) Nathan is the best lawyer I know. I like how he does his job and he's very kind. Besides, he speaks Spanish very well. Your team is the best. Esther is very nice and always with a positive energy. Brenda and genesis also helped us a lot in the whole process. They are all very kind. Thanks for your excellent work.

Nathan es él mejor abogado qué eh conocido. Me gusta cómo hace su trabajo y es muy amable. Aparte habla muy bien el español. Su equipo de trabajo es lo mejor. Esther es muy agradable y siempre esta con una energia positiva. Brenda y genesis tambien nos ayudaron mucho en todo el procesó. Todos son muy amables. Gracias por su excelente trabajo.

What a great team Mr nathan really gave me confidence to go for our interview GOD bless him and everyone who works at that office

Nathan, thank you so much for all your hard work! Your group did an extremely great job, from start to finish, helping my wife attain her visa. I am truly grateful for Brenda's professionalism and persistence in making the whole process a successful and rewarding one. What an awesome asset you have in Brenda! I also want to thank Ester for being very pleasant and personable whenever I called your office.

No office visit, nor face-to-face meeting took place. I've never met any of you in person as I expected would be required at some point during the process, however everything was simply done via email, mail, and/or telephone. Too simple.

Thank you, again. This was money well spent. I have recommended you to others on who to contact for immigration issues, and will continue to do so in the future. Great job!!!

Thanks for Nathan and his staffs helped My family to Change a Student visa status to a Religion visa status. I just want to say that they did their job professionally and effectively. I definitely recommend this law office to anyone who needs an outstanding attorney and team.

This law firm really takes the time to get to know their clients. They are supportive and kind through the entire process. They are clear on what they need and willing to help anyway they can. Esther is a wonderful person to work with in the front desk, she always stays positive and warm. Genesis is the most organized and quick to respond to emails ! Nathan is an extremely intelligent man who obviously knows his study. So blessed to have them through this process. Nothing negative to say!

He is helpful, he is honest, he is more than reasonable with his fee. I like him not only as an Attorney, but also as a person. If anyone looking for an Immigration Attorney, he is the best.

Highly recommend this law office for anyone looking for experienced navigation through the frustrating and tedious immigration process.
My husband, who came to the U.S. from Canada, just obtained his permanent residency after beginning this process nearly three years ago. Our case, while it should have fairly simple, ended up having quite a few obstacles along the way, making the process stall and take longer and longer every time.
What made it easier and less worrisome for us is that Nathan and his amazing team was there with us every step of the way, and remained patient even when we were bothering him all the time for updates on our case.
I definitely think it's worth paying the professional to walk you through the process, if possible. There are just way too many details and things that are easy to forget/mess up along the way ...... and no one can afford to have to start all over in this process for a mistake that an attorney will not overlook. If you do hire a professional, this is your guy!

Amazing experience!!! Definitely would use this law office again. Staff was wonderful, keep me updated all the time. Absolutely recommend ...

Exacly, like everyone say here, Mr. Nathan is the best attorney in Texas!

Careful, attentive, and very friendly office/staff. Nathan made everything easy. They truly care for their clients.

If you are looking for best of best lawyer then don't go anywhere but to the Law Office Of Nathan Christensen. They never had any case from my country but I trusted them and they did the best job. They take your case very personal and treat it that way so you don't feel like you are dealing with a lawyer but family. The whole staff treat you like part of their family. Thank you so so so much Nathan and Brenda you guys are best of the best

Hands Down the Best immigration Lawyer In Dallas. The people are really nice. A definite 10 on 10

Best lawyer available

This team defies all of the negative stereotypes about law firms. They are all kind and charismatic people, sincerely looked after my partner's case, and were very communicative throughout the whole process (including clearly outlining their fees, which was appreciated). My partner was able to get his green card quickly and without any surprises or hitches. Thanks, Nate and Isela!

After being turned down by two different lawyers, I was about to give up and one day I decided to give it another shot. Thats when I found The Law Office of Nathan Christensen. I gave them a call and they promptly gave me an appointment to discuss my case. I went with negative thoughts due to being turned down previously for issues I had in my past. That day when I spoke with Nathan Christensen, he fulfilled me with hope and renewed my optimism by very honestly saying, "I can handle your case". At that moment, I was very happy and until now nobody has treated me with honesty and professionalism more than the staff at The Law Office of Nathan Christensen. I got my citizenship now and the Law Office of Nathan Christensen formed part of my life and all I have to say is Thank You very much from the bottom of my heart.

I just wanted to thank Nathan and his staff for all they did for our family my husband just got his residency and we couldn't be more happy Nathan did what 2 other lawyers said could not happen I will forever be thankful to him. They answered every question and made us feel at ease very friendly and worked hard on my husbands case.

(Translated by Google) honest, sincere, workers .. totally recommended

(Original)
honestos, sinceros, trabajadores .. totalmente recomendable

If there were more stars for me to click on I would totally do it. Nathan and his team helped my husband get his permanent resident card and we could not be more grateful with them. His team is super friendly, welcoming and always answered any questions we had .They always kept me up to date on my case, if it was not by phone it was through an email, but I always knew what was going on and what I needed to do. I felt confident they were doing the very best to help my case :) When I was looking for an attorney I realized that many of the popular immigration firms were always so overcrowded, unorganized and you never saw the actual attorney, but from the very first appointment we had with Nathan we knew it was going to be different. We actually talked to him and at times talked to him over the phone as well, so we knew he was actually involved in our case 100 %. Believe me when I say you will not be disappointed with this Law Office.

This law firm is incredible! I am so happy to have been working with Nathan and Brenda for the past few months. They have been able to do more for our family in a short time than a previous lawyer did in 5 years. This firm has it together. They answer the phone in person and get you to the person you need to speak with right away. There was no phone tag, and they were so knowledgeable and willing to help. I would recommend this firm to anyone seeking a green card or citizenship. They really care about you and they have the skills to help you properly resolve any immigration issue. 5 GOLD STARS!!! They are amazing.

(Translated by Google) Had an amazing experience. highly recommended.
It has better working wings, apart from the fact that it always has you informed about the case, I travel more than 3 hours to get to know it and it was the best option we could have had. You should be worth your appointment with them!

Had an amazing experience. highly recommended.
tiene alas mejores trabajadoras,aparte de que siempre te tiene informado sobre el caso,yo viaje mas de 3 horas para conocerlo y fue la mejor opción que pudimos aver tenido.. Deveras q vale la pena aser tu cita con ellos!!

I want to thank Nathan Christensen and his staff for everything they have done for me. I just became a legal permanent resident last month and it was all thanks to Nathan. I was only in Honduras for a couple of weeks and everything went great. The attorney made sure I was ready for my interview and prepared me for everything and got all my documents together for me. All I have to say is that that Nathan is the best attorney in the DFW area. What I loved the most is that you can talk to him or the paralegals anytime. In other law firms you only see the attorney the first time during the consultation and then you never see him again. Not in this firm. He is always there to answer your questions and concerns. I recommend him to anyone and everyone. Definitely a 10 star!!!

I definitely recommend The law office of Nathan you will have hard time finding a honest and kind person like him.. I am so thankful that he helped me to do my citizenship.

I've been working on various immigration requirements for the better part of 10 years now & I can say with absolute certainty that Nathan is the best lawyer I've encountered within that time (and I've met a few). Right from the beginning he made sure I understood my rights and the road ahead, providing a step-by-step guide to make my applications go as smoothly as possible. He was always available to meet and discuss my case, while also staying in contact via email/phone if I couldn't make it in. Thanks to Nate I now have my Permanent Residency established and I look forward to returning to him in the near future to begin applying for Citizenship.

I started my case back in 2012 with a Notary. Once the Notary realized that she could not do a waiver I decided to look for an immigration attorney so they could submit it and once they submitted it was denied. I then decided to look for another attorney and I found the great reviews that Attorney Nathan Christensen had and decided to call him. During our consultation I learned that he has never had a waiver denied so I decided to hire him. As soon as we hire him he started working on our case right away and even though it was a hard one he always kept in touch with us to let us know what was going on. My waiver got approved in 3 months and from there he got me my interview in El Salvador and made sure to prepare me for my interview before I left. He also prepared me a packet with everything I will need to take to my interview. I have nothing to say other than how thankful I am to have found Nathan Christensen. I also felt very comfortable with him because he speaks spanish. Definitely a 10 star review.

Nathan and his team are the reason I finally have my green card! Over the last 4 years my employer and I have received assistance from Nathan's law office for my R1 and then for my green card. Thanks to his meticulous detail to attention, his consistency in responding to my infinite questions and the helpful demeanor of him and his staff, I have been approved for all my applications processed through his office. I don't think you'll find a more pleasant and successful immigration lawyer than Nathan Christensen! I cannot say enough how wonderful a team this office has and how much all their hard work has meant to me. I recommend them to anyone who has immigration questions and concerns.

From the very beginning this office was great! Nathan was very upfront with everything and made me feel very confident. The 2young ladies, Isela and Brenda, were very helpful as well. I never had to worry about anything as they kept me updated with everything and made the entire process simple. I have recommended this office a few times already and will continue to do so. Quick description? Professional, fast, friendly, and very knowledgeable!

Hi Nathan, it has been a pleasure to work with you and having you as my lawyer, you did an excellent job helping me with my paperwork to become a permanent resident , thank you so much for your good service, I would recommend you to anyone, you are the best.
May God give you many years to help others as you did for me.

The Best Lawyer In Dallas Hands Down. He kept Us Informed And Kept In Contact With Us About Our Case. Very Nice And Friendly Staff As Well. I Give These Guys A 10 They Really Care And Take Care Of Their People ! He Is Also Bilingual Which Is A Plus !

(Translated by Google) Very good this law firm I highly recommend it if I could give it 10 stars

Muy buena esta firma de abogado lo recomiendo ampliamente si se pudiese le diera 10 estrellas

Nathan and his staff (Brenda and Isela) provided unmatched service, not just as a law firm but as a business and as caring human beings. Nathan helped me get my citizenship quickly and effectively even though my case was a little complicated. I also could not believe how good his price was for his service. Later on, as I got to know Nathan more, I found out that he is super passionate about what he does and about helping as many people as he can. Kudos to you and your team and thank you Nathan for the great service, for your expertise, your effectiveness, and your passion.

Yo conoci al abogado Nathan hace unos anos cuando estaba buscando un abogado de Inmigracion para que tomara mi caso. Desde la primera vez que hable con el en nuestra consulta supe que el seria mi abogado. No solamente es una persona muy profesional pero le importan mucho sus clientes. El es muy honesto desde un principio y explica el proceso tan bien que cualquier persona lo puede entender. El hizo un excelente trabajo en mi caso y ahora es un gran amigo mio. Su paralegal Isela tambien hizo un excelente trabajo en mi perdon. La recepcionista Brenda es muy amable y util. Definitivamente se los recomiendo a todos y les doy una evaluacion de 10 estrellas!!! Llamenlos les aseguro que no se arrepentiran. Todas las personas que trabajan en la firma hablan espanol!

Definitely a 10 STAR Experience! Nathan is very professional and a joy to work with. You will not be disappointed with the personal service he provides. He guides you every step of the way, explains everything and even attends your interview with INS.
The process was so smooth, papers filled out correctly and attention to all the details is foremost with him and his staff!
Cost is very reasonable and I can truly say I made the right choice going with Nate for my Immigration needs!
