They are very knowledgeable..

Fantastic and professional service. My wife and I can't thank Mr. Shihab and his team enough.

Gus and his team are thorough professionals and made the process for our permanent residency (green card) smooth and easy as possible. There was a slight hiccup at the beginning with regards to the response time and communications with the paralegal, however Gus jumped right in and sorted out our issue and made sure everything went smoothly till our green card was approved. I would definitely recommend Shihab for any immigration related matters.

I would highly recommend Attorney Gus Shihab for all your immigration services. The staff at the law firm of Shihab and Associates are very professional and extremely courteous. The staff gives 100 percent on everything

Mr. Gus Shihab is one of the best lawyers in the Midwest, he was able to get me my j Visa, i am working and making money here in the USA

Gus is awesome, him and his staff are very professional ! I got my extension to B1/B2 visa via him. Great staff!! Excellent service and very professional

I struggled getting my wife to come to the united states, attorney shihab did a great job, thanks to god and him!! Today i live with my wife and two kids in Akron ohio, i highly recommend Shihad and Associates

I was ready to begin my citizenship application when I ran into some trouble. I went to many immigration lawyers and the only one who had the knowledge and expertise was Gus. Him and his very talented team helped me to properly navigate the process which was not easy due to the trouble I ran into. His recommendations were not what I wanted to hear but I followed them because they brought the knowledge, experience and a peace of mind that everything was going to be ok. I became a citizen because of them!

My experience with The Law Firm of Shihab and Associates has been nothing short of outstanding. Even though my case was primarily handled by Attorneys Kozyra and Shihab, everybody that I interacted with (from the receptionist to their accountant) were exceptionally nice and professional.

I found out about Attorney Shihab’s firm through a common acquaintance that used their services in the past. I was in a very desperate situation, with my J-1 visa expiring within a year and subject to the Two-Year Foreign Residence Requirement 212(e). My plan was to request a waiver to the two-year rule and later apply for a Green Card since I am married to a US citizen. At the time, I had already met with a different immigration lawyer. However, I felt very uncertain with the counseling I was receiving. After talking with Attorney Shihab for 15-20 minutes I realized how oblivious my first lawyer was, at least regarding my case in particular. Needless to say, I switched law firms that very same day and my journey with Shihab and Associates started.

The next couple of meetings, Attorney Shihab introduced me to Attorney Kozyra and together we designed the best action plan based on my situation/needs. Something that I really appreciate is that since the beginning they were always very honest, straightforward and patient. They covered the pros and cons of every possible route and answered all my questions while we were trying to come up with the plan. In addition, they were very kind; our meetings will always start with some small talk and they always gave me reassurance when necessary. They also worked super fast; the time that it takes them to create and submit a case depends almost completely on how long it takes the client to submit the necessary paperwork. There are specific requirements (e.g. medical/physical exams, physiological opinions, among others) that might delay your submission time, since it will depend on how fast you can request an appointment. But as soon as I gave them everything that was requested, they called me within days to sign the forms and submit the case. Even after submission, they always stayed in touch with me either following the status of the case or answering questions.

Finally, actions speak louder than words. My first lawyer told me my chances of obtaining the waiver were close to zero, and he even went to the extend of telling me that I was “lying to the US government” since I got married and planned to stay in the US. Today, I can say that my waiver was GRANTED thanks to the time and expertise Attorneys Shihab and Kozyra dedicated to my case. We just finished working on my Green Card application and I am 100% confident my case is in the best hands.

Very honest I recommend him very strongly

Shihab is realistic and helpful . He explained what to expect as a result of my case , communication with his office was prompt and he contacted me on several occasions (something you don't get from most lawyers). I'm happy that I chose him to represent me and will definitely recommend him to my friends and everyone else

This is an awesome law! Nice people, Nice attorney. Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Very professional and excellent costumer service. They took care of me and explained every step until it was all over and done with it. I recommend them to anyone who need legal advice about emigration.

The SHIBAB firm represented my H1b petition successfully. They took every care to highlight the petition is strong enough and which lead to approval. Definitely recommended and trustworthy immigration firm.

(Translated by Google) Ghassan was actually one of the finest lawyers in Columbus
After a very long trouble with Amgration
Time and money are lost with incompetent lawyers
Al-Estaz Ghassan found that his success rate was very weak
With his efficiency, he saved me by getting the permanent green card
Thank you very much for the excellent reception Ghassan and for all his staff because I have a lot of work and diligence to deal with me

استاز غسان فعلا من اروع المحاميين في كولمبوس
بعد عناء طويل جدا مع الامغريشن
وتضيع وقت وفلوس مع محامين غير اكفاء
وجدت الاستاز غسان ومن معامله كانت نسبة النجاح فيها جدا ضعيفه
استطاع وبكفائته انو يخلصني بحصولي على الجرين كارد الدائم
شكر كتيييير كبير للاستاز غسان الرائع ولكل العاملين معه لما وجدت عندهم من رقي بالتعامل واجتهاد على معاملتي

If, there are ten stars to give Mr. Shihab!! I would never hesitate. My case had a Zero chance to be solved. He did not only stop the deportation and supported me in my hideous situation, but also I finally got my approval for the green card. After, years of baying thousands for the wrong attorney I finally found Mr.Gus to end my suffering with the emigration. He really cares about his client. He would call at 8 in the morning or late in the evening just to remind me with some paper work, or to ask some question. I would highly encourage everyone to leave whom ever your lawyer and hire Mr. Gus you'll never regret it.

Shihab and Associate is the best law firm in Ohio trust me. I would highly recommend Shihab and his team for all your immigration services. My husband's case was not winnable, non of the Attorneys in Columbus could handle it but they were able to get him his green card sooo easily. They are VERY professional and gets the work done. I could go on and on but all I can say is that if you ever need an attorney, please look no further. Go to Shihab and Associate..

Thank you so much Mr. Shihab and your wonderful team.

DOROTHY/Emmun

Gus was always helpful. He offered us the best service that no other lawyer could. If it wasn’t for him, we would’ve had so many problems. He was always focused on our cases that not a lot of lawyers ever did I am very satisfied and appreciative for what Gus had done for me and my family. I highly recommend Gus as a lawyer.

Gus Shihab is a excellent immigration attorney. He helped with my daughters citizenship. He was there from the start, he helped us with every step of the process.

Gus Shihab is the best Immigration attorney.
He and his team are extremely professional and have excellent customer service.

I would highly recommend Attorney Gus Shihab for all your immigration services. The staff and the team at the law firm of Shihab and Associates are very professional.

The best immigration law firm we have experienced. Gus and his team worked above and beyond our expectations. Gus helped my wife get her resident card. We have daughters and it would have been heart broken to see the family ripped apart. Gus and his team made our dreams come true.

WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM!

I had a pleasant experience with the Law firm of Mr. Gus Shihab and his team, earlier, for adjustment of status and I didn't have to search for another attorney for removal of conditions.

I am very pleased with the efforts of removal of conditions on my conditional green card. I felt my case was given personal attention and was driven by their team to achieve my goals.

They guided me to collect the right documentation and explained to me what exactly the USCIS were looking for. Their response to my queries via email and telephone were on time.

Needless to say, I will recommend the Law firm of Mr. Gus Shihab and his team, to anyone who asks from me, and, personally avail their services in future.

Attorney Shihab and his associates are professionals. They made the whole process smooth and easy. It's been a long journey but I know I was in good hands from the get go. Thank you All very much!

I have had a terrific experience with the law firm. Gus and him team are extremely knowledgeable in their field. I have used them for both my H1 and green card and both processes yielded successful results. We have a long history.

They make the process very easy and efficient. They are very on top of their work. Communication is extremely efficient and response is very quick. I felt very comfortable the entire time. I have a very busy schedule and what I love is that they kept up with all the dates and made sure I turned in all necessary paperwork to them ahead of time. They gave me enough notice before each paperwork was due to them. Overall they are the best at what they do. Can't find a better firm.

My god.. these guys are such great team.. The most complex immigration system in world is understood clearly and made is easy to the extent a lawyer can. Prompt in response.. clear in guidance.. no biased input from employer. perfect tracking in portal. even i got response on Saturdays from Adam and Josh. Got my I140 approved in 12 month from the day first we paid for first step in GC (including the lag time /delay in our documenations submission)

Thanks to Gus Shihab I received an H1B work visa, an extended H1B, and eventually my Green Card through marriage. Working with immigration can feel like a very arbitrary process and cause anxiety. When working with Gus & Associates however you can be confident that all the right steps are taken, all the right documents are filed, and all the essential evidence is provided. Though the outcome of any application cannot be guaranteed, thanks to Gus's approach in handling my cases I felt much more confident. With the Law Firm of Shihab & Associates you're in good hands.

Shihab and Associates went above and beyond for my husband and I. Our case was very difficult and was drug out for over a year! Gus Shihab thought every move through thoroughly and strategically. Throughout the process Shihab and Associates went out of there way to make me feel as if I was a friend not only a client. Certain days I had emailed and called multiple times and was never treated as nuisance. The office members also knew me by name just from the sound of my voice. I am very happy I chose this office to help my husband. I highly recommend their services, you will not regret it!

Mr. Shihab helped me on my H1B Renewal post 6 years and my PERM.

I had lost precious time under my previous attorney who filed my PERM twice (Once denied and once audited). My tight timeline generated lot of stress both personally and professionally. I am very thankful to Mr. Shihab in the manner he handled my case, sometime responding to my emails late night and occasionally even meeting me over the weekends. A through professional who works in the interest of his client.

I just heard from him that my PERM he filed 4 months back has been approved and he is proceeding with my I-140.

I would highly recommend his services.

Mr. Shihab came highly recommended by two separate parties who had availed of is services. I scheduled an appointment with him and found him professional and ethical.

Any doubts and questions were promptly answered by him and his competent staff.

After submitting the case to the USCIS there were no RFEs and all approvals happened in a timely manner one after the other, going by the processing times.

We requested his presence at the interview and I cannot stress more on the fact that the job was 70% done after that. He enjoys quite a reputation with the office due to his ethical history over the years.

Although my case was genuine, there were some cliched 'flags' which everyone talks about online, but none were raised thanks to Mr. Shihab's pre-interview prep and documentation requested.

10/10 would use his services in the future. Best of luck.

The lawyer is brilliant, I had a really big problem with immigration and it needed to be solved and this firm law solved it. Our condition were bad and we were about to be deported and no lawyer would accept our case. We went to lawyers thst had a really good reputation, but none of them helped us, only this lawyer solved our problem, now we are legal and I am able to get a job

I highly recommend Mr.Shihab to anyone looking for any legal assistance.

Gus Shihab and everyone at Shihab & Associates are knowledgeable professionals who care about your specific case. They are patient, responsive, and easy to work with. Their web-based system makes it easy to collect and track all the documents necessary for dealing with the Federal government, and they walk you through each step of the process and prepare you for what comes next. Whether your case is simple or complex, if you've ever thought about getting yourself an immigration lawyer, I can't recommend these folks highly enough.

I had used another local immigration lawyer but my case was denied twice again. I wasted years with the prior attorney and thousands of dollars without any results. When I met with attorney Gus Shihab, he was very honest about my case from the very beginning and told me that the way my case had been handled before was utter incompetence. He quickly shifted the strategy of my case and recommended an aggressive course of action. Attorney Gus Shihab was very deliberate and careful due to the fact that I had pretty much reached the end of my rope as far as my legal stay in the United States. But his careful and extremely competent work yielded great results. He even emailed the officers at the USCIS to make certain they were reviewing my case correctly. My immigrant visa was approved and I expect to receive my green card in a couple of months. I highly recommend the expert service of attorney Gus Shihab. As far as I know, he is the best immigration lawyer in Columbus, Ohio.

very bad and no answers any call or equations till you pay consultation.

I must say this is excellent Attorney firm to work with. They will reply your each and every question. I really admire their professional way of working. I highly recommend this Company for any visa/Green Card matters. I got my labor and I-140 approved through them without any issues. Got my I-140 in just 2 days .I am thankful for their skills and wishing them all the best for their future cases.

I had met Gus Shihab of Shihab & Associates after facing a big problem in my case. Previous to our meeting, I had retained another local lawyer who I felt uneasy with and who painted scare scenarios. With attorney Shihab, I felt very comfortable and he assured me that my case is solvable. Within ten minutes of talking to him, I knew no one could give me a better chance at getting my case approved He handled my case with a highest degree of skill. Most notably, he was very innovative and implemented measures I had not thought were possible. In all, he is very personable, competent, responsive and transparent. He took extra time and care to prepare me for the interview. When I had my interview with the USCIS, the officer was dumbfounded at the level of preparation and had few questions. Despite my complicated situation, my case got approved.
One thing that every immigrant knows is the overwhelming amount of distress that accompanies this process, what I truly appreciated is not only attorney Shihab's responsiveness to my questions but his law firm in general, his office staff answered me consistently,with respect, professionalism, and I felt extremely important and not like "every other client". I highly recommend Gus Shihab as a skillful and strong advocate.

I've worked with lawyers before. There is none who is more attentive and quick to respond. Gus worked with me through my work visa process. Sometimes, I felt like I was the only client. Then I realized there are hundreds more. He answered my emails and carefully comforted me over the telephone about each and every query. Usually you will never hear from lawyers after the first call, its only their assistants who respond. Gus is different. He genuinely cares about his clients and takes personal interest in their needs. He is also honest in that he will not sugarcoat his answers. If you don't stand a chance in a case, he will tell you. We need not only more lawyers, but more human beings like Gus Shihab. I haven't met him personally, yet speak such things about him. You can imagine what work ethic he possesses. May his firm prosper!

Mr. Shihab and his team are amazing. They got my Case I-485; (Application to Register Permanent Residence or to Adjust Status through marriage) approved in less than 90 days from the day of my application received by USCIS.
During my case processing period Mr. Shihab and his team were extremely responsive towards my inquiries or questions. Even at mid night I got his email answering my concern/question numerous times.
I would highly recommend immigration law firm “Shihab & Associates” for any immigration related issues.

The attorneys and staff at The Law Firm of Shihab & Associates deliver results, and they do so fast and with the highest level of professionalism. It has been a while since I developed a working relationship with this Law Firm, but every time I have contacted them about something, I get treated like I'm a first time client...my calls/emails are responded to in a timely fashion. The attorney's at Shihab & Associates are very knowledgeable, extremely efficient, and very courteous. If you're looking for a Law Firm that truly cares about you and walks with you every step of the way, the professionals at Shihab & Associates are waiting to hear from you.

In the 10 years that we've been dealing with US immigration, I've worked with 5 different immigration law firms in addition to Shihab and Associates. None of the other firms have come close to providing the results that I have experienced working with Gus. He would take to time to explain, but also was not shy about recommending a course of action. I would 100% recommend Gus.

I have had an extremly positive experience with Mr. Gus Shihab. When I worked with Mr. Gus Shihab, I felt like I hired more than an attorney, I hired a friend. Apart from the immense knowledge and vast experience that he brings to table, Mr. Shihab is very easy to talk to and work with. He was very responsive. He took great care in understanding my situation and my needs. He went to great length in explaining and preparing me for the process. I never felt rushed or not have enough time when I talked to him. I would use Mr. Shihab again if needed and I would strongly recommend him to anyone with immigration needs.
