“I was referred to Shelle-Ann Simon, PLLC by one of my cousin and I decided to give her try. In September 2022 my VAWA case was started by Shelle-Ann Simon, PLLC and by February 2023 everything was approved and I was able to travel in and out of the country in April and August 2023. I can certainly say I have no regrets in using her it was a promise made, promise kept. I was guaranteed that I would have gotten my documents sorted out by a certain time and this was indeed true. I was promised a fast and efficient service and that’s exactly what I had received. Thanks to Shelle-Ann Simon, PLLC for providing me with an effective and efficient service… big up all the time!!!.”

Frequently asked questions about immigration services

What immigration services does your firm offer?

We handle a wide range of cases, including family immigration, humanitarian visas, residency, citizenship, fiancé visas, waivers, work permits, consular processing, and certain deportation defense matters. Our team reviews your situation to determine the correct pathway based on your goals.

Do I really need an immigration attorney for my case?

While it’s not required, having an immigration attorney reduces errors, prevents delays, and ensures you apply for the correct process based on your history. Immigration law is complex and constantly changing; professional guidance often makes the difference in getting approved.

How long does an immigration process usually take?

It depends on the type of application, your category, USCIS workload, and your consulate. Some processes take months; others may take more than a year. During a consultation, we evaluate your case and explain the estimated timeline for your specific benefit.

Can I work in the U.S. while my case is pending?

In many processes, you can apply for a work permit (EAD), especially in adjustment of status, asylum, or certain humanitarian cases. If your case is consular, you must wait to enter legally with your immigrant visa before working.

What documents do I need to start an immigration case?

Generally, you need a passport, civil documents (birth, marriage, divorce), evidence of relationship, financial proof, and specific forms. The exact list depends on the benefit you are requesting.

What happens if USCIS denies my application?

You may appeal, file a motion, or start a new corrected application—depending on the reason for the denial. We analyze your history to determine the safest strategy.

Can you help me if I am outside the United States?

Yes. We handle cases from abroad, including fiancé visas, family petitions with consular processing, derivative naturalization, and certain humanitarian benefits. We guide you according to your corresponding consulate.

How can I know which immigration option is right for me?

We analyze your status, history, risks, family relationships, and goals. With this information, we determine whether you need an adjustment, a waiver, a family petition, a humanitarian visa, or another safer and more strategic pathway.
