"My wife is French and when we were getting ready to get married, we went through hell trying to figure out the best path forward to be able to live together in the same country. First we hired two French immigration lawyers. The first was rude and unhelpful over and over, so we ended up terminating our work with her. The second seemed at first like he'd be better, but ended up increasing his fee (considerably) twice due to our case becoming more complicated, and threatened to refuse to even send us our paperwork back if we didn't pay right away. So again we walked.
The first US attorney we tried working with was friendly and meant well, but after our first consultation with him we went home and good old Google confirmed that his information was incomplete and out of date. Frustrated but determined to find a way, we finally found Edward. Phew!!!
From the very first consultation with Edward, we knew we were in the best of hands. Edward was deeply knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and incredibly competent from the get-go. He asked a lot of questions, worked with us in depth to understand every little detail of our case, and was always one step ahead of the process, sending preparation paperwork in advance, checking in regularly to ensure we were staying on top of our preparations, and even offering multiple practice interviews for my wife who was a bit nervous about that part of the process.
Twice during our process with Edward, the sale of our apartment in Paris fell through, and we had to change our plans and dates. Each time, based on our experiences with our other lawyers and our recognition that we were asking him to do a lot more work, we offered to increase the fee. He refused categorically, and continued to work with us competently and patiently through our 13 month process, helping us reschedule our interview twice.
I'm writing now from California, where my wife, baby, and I have settled and are loving our life. We feel we owe this happiness to Edward in a more profound way than I could possibly express in this little box. I couldn't recommend Edward more strongly, and we look forward to staying in touch with him over the years, as well as working with him for our green card renewal, and any other needs we ever have in this realm."

"My experience with Mr Weiner has been just fabulous and, for the very first time, after several bad experiences, it really reconciled my thoughts for this profession. I hope everyone can live the experience I had with Mr Weiner. My story: I'm French and Canadian and in Oct 2013, I had the bad experience to be refused at one USCIS office. I was forbidden to cross the US border because of a naive mistake I did then. After this I tried to fix my situation in Canada, my country. Unfortunately, I just met bad lawyers pretending they were American law experts, giving me wrong info, wanting to extort me some insane fees.
After 5 yrs of being a ping pong ball, I never found satisfaction in Canada. I was really lost with these contradictory info I gathered so far. My patience and will to fix properly my issue finally got rewarded. I turned toward an American Attorney Who knows best the American rights than an American attorney ?! That was the wisest thing I did. I chose Mr Weiner because he was a specialist in US immigration and he spoke also French, ma native language. It is already very tricky to understand the legal and technical jargon in French so have an entire communication in English would have been an nightmare for me as I wanted to understand fully my situation. Mr Weiner and his assistant speak and write perfectly French and it was truly appreciated.
I could have chose another American lawyer who spoke French as well but I chose Mr Weiner because of these reasons: 1st phone call to introduce my case, my fears and situation: free - very affordable fees compared to Canada - Transparent fees, clear WITHOUT mysterious new extra fees during or when we closed the case. - unlimited phone calls and emails but for me, the most important was the simplicity of communication with him. Mr Weiner's always been clear. he took the time needed to understand my issue without counting the hours and he noticed points that no one noticed before. Yet these were just essential. Often, experts, whatever the field, use specific jargon and for a non expert person it can be very confusing. Mr Weiner was very aware of this and used words everyone could understand, to make sure I was really understanding my file, the consequences, the possibilities.
For the 1st time since 2013, to carry this burden and anxiousness with my wife, we were glad to feel that we were not alone anymore. I'm really VERY HAPPY of my experience with Mr Weiner. He has been super efficient, noticed all the important facts, always attentive, very concerned to the details. Mr Weiner knows perfectly his field of expertise but he knows very well how to communicate and so his assistant. Always very kind and polite to my wife and I. Always honest and clear in his words because the first he wanted for me was to solve my issue that has been following me for 5 years. It is the first time I felt in confidence and supported in a situation that caused many concern and stress to my wife and I and that seemed impossible to fix.
The D-day came, Mr Weiner adviced me one USCIS to show my file. One of his colleague lawyer close to that office was aware I was there in case I needed extra fast help during the interview. The file was just perfectly built. He prepared me for that event by mail and phone and finally after 30min at the border, I got the authorization to cross again the US border. I found back my liberty thanks to Mr Weiner I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Mr Weiner." From our client JBM
"Mr. Weiner did a fantastic job preparing our case. The case was quite complicated, and Mr. Weiner identified two points that could be a problem. On one of them he provided a brief describing the French law on marriage, and how it should be interpreted for our case. On the other point, he prepared us fully in case this issue came up. His brief addressed the first point so well that it did not come up. The other point came up, and was resolved quickly. To our surprise the application was approved and the oath taken the day of the interviews. My nephews, age 15 and 17, will have a great memory that they'll remember all their life.
I would absolutely recommend Mr. Weiner's service to anybody that I know. I would particularly recommend his service for anything that deals with obtaining US citizenship, and with the most complicated cases involving French and US laws." From our client MS
"Our case was more prepared with such detail. Mr. Weiner covered every possible road block that we could have encountered. Our application was approved in a short amount of time and the odds were against us because of the case we had to present. Other lawyers I tried to contact asked for 3 times the amount in fees plus they were pretty pessimistic about the outcome. Everything was more than perfect. It out did any expectations." From our client AE
"The case was very well prepared even if it was complicated, Attorney Weiner never gave up...The practice interview was the key of the succes. Keep working the way you do, rapide et efficace..." From our client FZC
"Mr. Weiner did a great job all along but one thing I will always remember that he found an accountant for me who is an Arab and speaks Arabic from a well-known company in the US. The Arab accountant was very helpful and prepared a legal STATEMENT that Mr. Weiner requested. At the US Embassy, on the day of my interview.. It was ONE of the first documents they requested to see that Statement." From our client NA
"My file was prepared in the best way possible and even the immigration officer was impressed by it and never requested more information. Attorney Edward Weiner is the best immigration lawyer. I’ve been to three other lawyers before and got nowhere, after meeting Edward Weiner my life had changed. Thank to him I’m a citizen and I can stay in the United States with my wife and child."
