The Law Office of Christine Troy achieves a very high success rate on behalf of clients and all aspects of each case are handled directly by Christine Troy (unlike large firms that hand most cases off to paralegals). Many immigration cases face unforeseen legal obstacles, and the application process is often stressful on you, your family and your employer. In order to minimize this stress, all procedures, options, problems and recommendations are explained and discussed up front. As a result of our thorough, hands-on approach, our office has had great success obtaining green cards and visas for applicants, even when other legal offices had told them there was no solution.
