First class immigration took my case and did wonders with it, everything went smooth and without any complications, Michael is an outstanding lawyer and will fight for your case like if there where no tomorrow. Thank you for your awesome job First class immigration.

Very informative and helpful

I was very impressed with the online reviews which made me set up a consultation with this law firm. My first consultation, Michael gave me hope with my specific case and I needed locate some missing documentation. My husband and I came for a second consultation and I would have liked for him to say I don't know how to help you or referred you to someone that could possibly help with my specific case instead of saying I'll make a few phone calls and get back with you. I tried reaching out to him twice via email per his request. There has been absolutely no follow up email or call with any details about my case or how to move forward. Very disappointment I wasted my time and money.

First Class Immigration really did help me a lot. Was really satisfied.

Michael and the team at First Class Immigration has been providing us with legal and immigration related expertise since 2012. With 100% success, our O visa process has been greatly simplified through working with Michael and his team. Highly recommended.

Michael and his staff were nothing short of amazing! Michael has gone above and beyond to answer all of our questions and ensure we understand every step of the immigration process. He was readily available via email or phone whenever we had questions. Even after moving across the USA, I will still only utilize Michaels expertise. He is VERY knowledgable on a variety of immigration issues and we couldn't be more thankful to have found him. Better yet, we were referred by another happy client of his! Thank you again, Michael! You are awesome.

Michael took me from a ‘hesitant’ client lost in the world of moving internationally to a now work visa equipped Aussie headed to the USA! Honestly could not recommend anyone more highly. A great outcome. Thanks mate

Notary service was friendly, efficient and affordable. Very happy. They even copied docs for us at no additional charge. Would definitely use again if not for moving out of area.

It's always a pleasure talking to Michael and his wonderful TEAM .I must thank them for displaying such great professionalism, in helping me and my kids, I really appreciate all that they did for us. I was able to go back home and see my family after not seeing them for 1year ,it was really hard on me, but I have so much to thank God for, I can visit my family now.
May the good lord continue to bless you all,
We're now like family.
I just want to say a big THANK you to Michael, Tessa, Rose and Natalie.
Love u all
From Nadine, Javian,Athalia and Calleah.

Michael and his team were able to help us successfully adjust my wife's status to permanent resident smoothly. There were no issues along the way. Will definitely recommend Michael Smallbone to anyone seeking for an Immigration attorney!

Michael has been an integral part of taking care of my immigration needs in the United States over the past 18 years. Without any reservation I would recommend having Michael help you navigate through immigration. Michael is thorough, knows the legal processes, and sincerely helpful and caring.

I've had visas, permanent resident status, and with assistance from Michael, I passed my citizenship interview - so I guess you could say he worked himself out of a job!

These guys are the best. I have used them for so many years for all my music visas and now my residency. I couldn’t speak higher of them!!

Indeed first class immigration deserves the name "first class". After my wife and I visited other lawyers who were money conscious, we found michael online.In fact he was very professional and had enough time to explain everything in details regarding our case to us. From the filing date to the time my green card was ordered was 7months.1st of all I give thanks to God and I say God bless you Michael and your team for the professional job you did.I will always recommend you to anyone who needs immigration assistance.

We first met with Michael late January of 2019. My spirit felt very good about having him represent us for the adjustment status for my husband. Prior to seeing Michael we met with multiple lawyers who just seem to be in it for the money didn't really give any real details of what to expect or what we needed, they all really just went over price, price and price. With Michael it was completely different from the moment we first sat with him he encouraged us and let us know what the process will be like and was realistic in the time frame. In early February we decided to go ahead and make the commitment to this law firm. Michael sent us tasks to do online we completed them and he immediately filed for us. His price was fair and his commitment to us was genuine. On a side note we prayed for our lawyer, we prayed for favor from God. And I'll tell you it took a total of 7 months from February 2019 from when we filed to September of 2019, my husband was approved for his EAD, travel documents, social security number, and finally his green card. 7 months!!!!! You can't tell me that's not my God!!. Online the time frame from the USCIS says something different said 11 to 23 months for the processing of the i - 485 but I tell you I stayed in prayer because I know what my God can do . Michael and his team always responded to our questions and concerns within 24 hours, communication with them was never lacking. I want to say thank you to Michael and his team Tessa, Natalie everybody who helped us and allowed God to move within them whether they knew it or not. Thank you for your time, your commitment and your hard work! You are most appreciated!

Totally recommend First Class Immigration

Within hours of being introduced to Michael, it felt like we were old friends! His knowledge, experience and professionalism is second to none. In much less time that I could have imagined, he got my O1 renewed. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an Immigration Attorney.
Michael and his team are the best!

Fantastic service

My husband and I are SO grateful that we found Michael Smallbone to help us with our immigration process. He is extremely professional, and yet extremely personal at the same. He is always very quick at returning calls and e-mails and we really trust that he knows his stuff. He was happy to answer our questions (even the ones we think of now!). We highly recommend using Michael and not trying to do everything on your own. They took care of everything and it was a peace of mind being able to clarify any questions we had during the process. Thanks Michael!

Best (and most affordable) Immigration Lawyer in the US!
I was referred to Michael Smallbone by a friend of mine who went through the process of obtaining a green card. I wasn't disappointed.

He is always available to answer my questions (even during late hours of the night) and is very easy to work with. The whole tedious immigration process felt like a breeze having Michael on my side.

I know of a lot of other people who also used him for immigration purposes and they share the same great experience Michael gave them. (not surprisingly).

I will continue to refer Michael to anyone in need of an immigration lawyer.

Thank you Michael Smallbone!!

Having signed an Agreement with an Agent who would be helping my career in the US, I sought out an attorney to assist me in applying for an 01 petition to work in the US. After reviewing the complex documents and requirements, I knew that I was not qualified to undertake this task myself.

The first attorney I spoke to turned out to be a disappointment. He really didn’t understand my needs. A former Manager and well known public figure introduced me to Michael Smallbone, an Immigration Attorney he knew of who had a reputation for getting the job done in a professional and timely manner.

Michael Smallbone was a blessing to me. The process was painless and I felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire process knowing that I had Michael and his team helping me out!

It wasn’t long before my application was approved! And that’s not all. Even after I was approved, he continued offering me his expert advice!
I recommend him to all of my friends! Professional, customer service is amazing, and just a nice and friendly guy!

I cannot praise Michael Smallbone and his team highly enough for navigating and supporting me through the immigration process from a change in circumstances after arriving on my visitor visa; through to receiving my Greencard.

Michael was recommended by a friend in Los Angeles who had several expensive and unhappy experiences with immigration lawyers. I had interviewed several lawyers and got conflicting advice which made the process all the more confusing and stressful. Unfortunately, I was left feeling it is an industry that can feed on client's fear and doubts - with time pressure. I found it difficult to find someone that could be trusted for both service to meet my needs and at a predictable price.

I am very grateful for Michael and Brandi's professionalism and friendly, supportive approach in turning a highly anxious and difficult process into a step by step path to a successful result; based on my circumstances.

What is more, I have never met the man beyond phone calls and emails and look forward to one day shaking his hand. I am in LA and Michael's location in Tennessee did not present any problems whatsoever.

I can't recommend Michael highly enough as an immigration lawyer that can be trusted with your circumstances. His pricing was pleasantly fair and reasonable and he is very reliable. A stand up guy.

Working together with Michael and his team was amazing. I remember being stressed and Michael stayed by our side and guided us throughout the entire process. The team here are fast, responsive and most of all they care about you. I was applying for an O1 visa and the team here did an incredible job, thanks team!

A friend recommended Michael to me after a less than desirable experience with my first lawyer. Although he was very busy, he took my case on and completely turned it around. He was professional and knowledgable, and constantly made himself available to work with me to ensure information was compiled in the best possible way. He went completely above and beyond - even continuing to answer questions after my case had been approved.

I highly recommend Michael, and will definitely be going back to him for any future immigration needs. He is honest, dependable, trustworthy, efficient, and above all, just a really solid guy who genuinely cares. I am so glad I made the choice to go with him.

Working with First class Immigration on my 01 visa was fantastic!!.. They were reliable, prompt and extremely professional in this field... Ill definitely be using them again.

Michael Smallbone is a top bloke. I'm now able to pursue my passion here in America, thanks to his advice and assistance. Thankful for the time he made available to me throughout the process of getting my visa.

From the start to finish this was a pleasant, professional experience. Michael made the process so simple, knew all the forms to file, and kept track of everything. When we went for the interview it was simple. All the papers and information were already there, we were finished in 10 minutes. Five stars aren't enough. We have one more matter to settle for another family member and we will definitely talking to Smallbone and Associates. Fantastic to work with.

We had a great experience with First Class. Highly recommend.

Such an effortless experience with Michael at First Class Immigration.
They made my application for residency so easy I wasn't sure it was real!
But as promised everything worked out perfectly and now I'm a resident and my brother and sister were able to acquire visas to peruse their music careers here in the US.
This whole process was very professional, the communication throughout was fantastic and I would recommend to anyone needing an immigration lawyer.

Thanks Michael and Brandi!!!!

Michael has helped me immensely in the process of becoming a U.S. Citizen. I started working with Michael 6 years ago when I was applying for a green card and my visa made it very difficult to say the least to get my green card, but Michael is an expert and he somehow figured it out and I got my green card. I just got my citizenship a few months ago and again it was easy to work with Michael and he handled pretty much everything. He responds quickly to phone calls and emails and follows up regularly.
He is not just a great lawyer but a great person. I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great dependable and thorough immigration lawyer!

Michael made my whole process and transition SO easy. Not only did he get me no hassle results FAST- but the ongoing service and reliable information he provided made my move to the USA as stress free as possible. Thanks Michael!

Our experience with Michael was extraordinary. Not only we had a positive outcome and my husband's green card was approved, but what made the experience so out of the ordinary is the time and sincere dedication that Michael gave us. He genuinely cared about us and always promptly responded all our calls and patiently answered all our questions, even when they were incessant since we had a very difficult case to resolve and I was often apprehensive. We are definitely going back to Michael to do my husband's citizenship next! Thank you Michael!

Seriously, such a great experience all around. Michael is personable, professional, experienced and efficient. He went above and beyond what was required of him during the application process for my US green card and helped my wife and I effortlessly navigate some obstacles that would have been very difficult to on our own. He made the whole process smooth and stress free. He has a great working knowledge of the ins and outs of US immigration and a good relationship with all the necessary immigration offices in the country. He is thorough and pays attention to detail. I wouldn't hesitate to use Michael again and would highly recommend his services to anyone!

I am originally from Australia and have worked with Michael for over 15 years.

I wholeheartedly recommend Michael Smallbone and his team to you. Under his careful and competent guidance, I navigated getting a temporary work visa, then a permanent green card and then finally I became a US Citizen.

Most recently, Michael and the team at First Class Immigration led me through the petition process and successfully gained permanent residency for my parents to move over and retire in the United States.

His knowledge is exceptional and his follow through is rock solid. I am very grateful for his expertise. I recommend Michael and the team to everyone I know who is seeking help with immigration. He is the best there is.

Michael and his team were fantastic to work with and ultimately got the results we needed. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone dealing with immigration. We were extremely happy with his services.

My business in Franklin TN, had found the exact person we needed to expand our team. The challenge was, this person was located in Perth, Australia. First Class Immigration provided the knowledge and professional expertise we needed to navigate the immigration/visa process for our new employee and his family. Mr. Smallbone is very professional and on top of things. I and my company highly recommend First Class Immigration.

I would highly recommend First Class Immigration to anyone who is going through this process. Michael Smallbone is very professional and responded quickly to various calls and emails. He laid out everything in great detail and helped me through the various stages of my visa and green card applications. I wouldn't choose anyone else!

My experience with first class immigration has been wonderful. His office took care of all the details and made the entire process very straight forward. I recommend him to all of our friends in need of an immigration lawyer.

Michael helped with an extremely difficult citizenship situation. He made the process efficient, easy, and simple to understand. We got our citizenship fast and without any problems. He is professional, personal, and a caring person who respects and works your unique situation. I will always recommend him for his services.

Working with Michael Smallbone and his colleagues was a delightful positive experience.
I was put in contact with Michael via a friend who had used his services before. I had a problem with the renewal of my 0-1 Visa and from the very beginning Michael knew exactly how to proceed with the case and address the problem areas.
Michael was professional, extremely efficient, knowledgeable and a joy to work with. Also friendly and personable which for me was a huge added bonus.
I can highly recommend Michael Smallbone for any of your legal requirements and I too will be using his services again in the future.

Michael has an exceptionally strong eye for detail that has been a benefit to my company's recent petition for a working visa. He also has a very calm and pleasant demeanor that was a blessing for me and my prospective employee. His strong sense of organization helped us to win the case through some exhaustive requests from USCIS. I'd call Michael again. Thumbs up!

Michael is not only great at what he does but is also just a nice dependable guy who has your back.

A friend of mine from New Zealand recommended Michael to me my sophomore year of college. He was so generous with his time and was kind enough to answer all of my questions over the phone. 3 years later, I graduated and was ready to file my O-1 Visa with him. After a series of life hiccups (Michael was always so accessible and there to help me think through everything) I have my visa!!

One of my friends had the misfortune of picking an immigration law who was shut down by the government for fraudulent activities. She had no one to turn to and an O1 petition already in progress, so I told her to call Michael. Michael was so amazing, he calmed her down and set up a conference call with a USCIS officer the next day!

Now, I always refer my friends to Michael to save them from the heartache!

The team at First Class Immigration totally dealt with our immigration issue. V. professional and amazing service. Highly recommend.

I would (and have again and again) HIGHLY RECCOMEND the services of First Class Immigration and Michael Smallbone. Not only did he do exactly as promised in obtaining my O1 Visa, but was willing, able and efficient in also helping my girlfriend attain her O2 in the least amount of time, with no hassle whatsoever.

After reviewing other immigration lawyers in various parts of the US ( LA, NY ) I was so pleased to meet Michael and find that not only was he more confident in my case than the other lawyers were, but honest and ready to do whatever work was necessary without trying to confuse me out of money, or time.

The process was extremely simple and the results were extraordinary. I have since referred no less than 5 other cases to FCI, all of which have thanked me time and again for introducing them to the amazing work and efficiency of this firm.

Thanks again Michael, Brandi and First Class Immigration!

Immigrating or working in the US can be overwhelming to say the least, Michael and the team understand your situation and confidently present clear and realistic options to suit each individual. I recommend them without any reservation.

We would not consider recommending anyone else after working with Michael on my spousal visa. He is polite, quick to respond and will not nickel and dime you over e-mails and phone calls. Once we paid his fees that was all that we paid. He was helpful and kind all the way through the long frustrating process, it would have been a nightmare to do this on our own. Thank you Michael.

Michael was an absolute blessing in dealing with my immigration to America.
He answered so many of my questions, and provided me with clarity and understanding of the often technical and confusing legal jargon.
With his help, I got the Visa and work authorization/Green card that I needed to live and work here in America with my wife.
The whole immigration process took far less than I initially expected, all thanks to Michael's knowledge and experience.
I would highly recommend Michael and his services to anyone considering immigration to America.

I've been using First Class Immigration for over four years and had nothing but excellent service and peace of mind with them. I would (and have) recommend them to anyone. For most people immigration law is a complicated and alien topic, I was no exception and so thankful I found this company to help me though the processes. Everything was explained in a way I could understand, and my cases were completely tailored to my situation. A fantastic company!

If you're needing immigration legal services First Class Immigration will take care of you. Michael explained every single step along the way with assurance and confidence. His knowledge of the procedures, policies and law is worth every cent. Getting US residency or citizenship is one of the most important things you'll ever do so be sure to have First Class Immigration do the hard stuff for you. There is no feeling like getting your green card in the mailbox. I could NOT have done it without First Class Immigration.

First Class Immigration all the way! Wouldn't think of going with anyone else. Professional, timely, competitively priced and they UNDERSTAND. They don't treat you like a client, they treat the case as if its their own. Not only did they take on a very difficult case, we were successful, and now I'm a very happy Green Card holder. Highly recommend them.

Wouldn’t want to work with anyone else on my Immigration Visas than with First Class Immigration. I have worked with Michael on two occasions and both times he has been nothing but professional and helpful. He is great at communication and gets the job done.

First Class Immigration has been working with our band, and me personally for the last 9 years. The professionalism and reasonable pricing is not to be taken lightly. Michael Smallbone who started this company has become someone that I trust and refer all of my friends to when It comes to immigration needs. He is very realistic in his assessment of situations. First Class Immigration is true to its name and done at a price rate that an artist can work with. I couldn't speak highly enough of the friendly and helpful nature of the staff. A truly excellent company, that provides a fantastic service in what can be a very stressful time.

My wife and I placed total trust in Michael as he guided us through the most important, life impacting, decision we’ve made as a couple - to move to the United States. I am from Australia and my wife is from France. Add to that our children and needless to say our case was a challenge. Throughout Michael was to us both an expert and a friend, providing all the information we needed as well as encouragement and care. Words fail to capture how grateful we are to First Class Immigration for making it possible for us to now call Tennessee our home. If you are planning to move to the United States we highly recommend First Class Immigration.

Usually a lot is on the line when you're dealing with immigration. I also know the immigration process can look daunting. After my experience with First Class Immigration I know it doesn't have to be. Everything was made clear and easy. I hope this google recommendation influences more people to experience the ease I had through the process.

Had an amazing experience. Very professional & always quick to respond and assist with any needs I had throughout the process of attaining my VISA.

The team at First Class Immigration handled my immigration matters from being a visitor all the way through to me becoming a citizen.  The entire process was super efficient, clear & cost effective. I cannot help but recommend them to anyone looking for immigration services.

5 stars, would give more if possible! Michael went above and beyond for my successful O1 petition. Even though we were met with some very frustrating moments along the way, he was always there to make sure everything ran smoothly. His personal stories, positive outlook and complete confidence in my case, made me feel at ease.
If you are looking for an attorney who goes the extra mile, I can't recommend Michael and his team higher :)

I had the pleasure of working with First Class Immigration on both my initial green card and then my US citizenship. Every step of the way, they were there to help me understand what I needed to do and quickly get my paperwork completed and filed.

The staff are courteous, helpful, and always quick to reply and engage me in the process. Never once did I feel like a number or another task to fulfill. I felt like a person-which is more than I could say for the US immigration system itself.As a result, I have referred many people to First Class Immigration and I have never received a negative comment about their services and professional attitude.

If you are looking for legal representation regarding your immigration or you just need help understanding the forms or the legal process, I highly recommend using First Class Immigration.
