I had a minor criminal record from a poor decision at 18 years old. Young and dumb. I am 47 now but they still wouldn’t let me into the US. They told me that I needed a waiver to enter. It costs a lot of money and is only valid for a few years so I never bothered as I couldn’t afford to pay the fees every few years to reapply. A customer at my auto body shop recommended Len because he helped her husband so I gave him a call to see if he could help me. I can’t say enough good things about Len. After a couple meetings with him and some simple steps, he met me at the border with documents that allowed me into the US without a waiver. The US border patrol agents entered it into their system and I have been crossing regularly without issue since. He went above and beyond for me and I couldn’t be happier with his service. I would highly recommend him to anyone having trouble with border entry. 10/10
I am an American today because of Leonard D.M. Saunders Blaine Immigration Law Firm. 16 years ago, I was given a referral that changed my life. In 2008 I was 21 years old, currently enrolled in college, on my way to visit family in Canada that turned out to not be so routine. Due to a parental decision that was made in 1993 when I was brought to the US, I found myself with insufficient proof of status when I attempted to return home to the U.S. via the Peace Arch border crossing. I was taken into secondary questioning where it was determined by two officers that I was inadmissible for entry into the United States and ordered to be removed. Unsure what to do, countless phone calls to gain assistance with this immigration dilemma, I was referred to Leonard D.M. Saunders. He took me on as a client with compassion, care, and confidence. Given my circumstances and Leonard Saunders' impeccable connections, within 6 days of my order of removal/decision to be inadmissible for 5 years to the U.S. - Leonard met with one the Chief Officers involved, and their meeting ended with the order being rescinded on my behalf. There is no other immigration lawyer who has the professional connections like Leonard Saunders to completely reverse a judgment. Leonard then obtained a F-1 student visa for myself through the college I was attending immediately so there was no disruption of my education and daily life that I had only ever known in the US. Quickly after that Leonard Saunders was planning ahead and getting my case on track to adjust my status to a permanent resident. Approved instantly. My life goals were to go to college, build a career, marry the love of my life, and contribute to the only place I had ever called home, the United States. Leonard Saunders gave me the peace of mind to not allow this unfortunate situation to hold me back from continuing that dream. Followed with gaining several Green Cards, Leonard Saunders then filed on behalf of my husband to sponsor me. At this point he had now taken my husband as a client with true merit. The amount of information you share and expose your personal life details in this type of situation was taken with such confidential trust from Leonard Saunders. He is the most intelligent professional with his understanding and practice of immigration law. My safety and ability to continue to travel to see family during this process was also made possible by Leonard Saunders. From being on-call whenever I had a question or concern, he always made time for me. I felt respect and dedication from Leonard Saunders knowing he would represent and navigate the immigration process for myself, husband, and eventually my whole family! Leonard Saunders used the law to prove on my behalf my case to be truthful, factual, and fair to the USDHS. After years of time, paperwork, and energy Leonard Saunders never wavered from my case going above and beyond for me. When it came down to the last interview that was my make-or-break success story to become naturalized, Leonard Saunders put his personal family on hold to fly all the way to Arizona and stand by my side during the most intense moment of my 16 yr. immigration process. The comradery Leonard Saunders, my husband and I have built through this entire process left us leaving that successful interview day smiling ear to ear. The loyalty is beyond words with Leonard Saunders. From beginning to end he got the job done, never letting me lose faith in the law. The countless Clerks, Chiefs, courts, and industry connections he has established through his career is valuable beyond estimation. His office staff are also so compassionate. I don't know where I would be or have ended up if it wasn't for Leonard Saunders. Which is why I take great pride in sharing this review to others who may need that one referral that can change their life, as it did mine. I have earned the greatest honor to be a citizen of the United States because of Leonard Saunders and his incredible team at The Immigration Law Firm PLLC Blaine Immigration.
As a Canadian Professional worker who has worked in Canada and USA since 1996 I have had my challenges finding solid legal advice. Search no longer if you're looking for the best US Immigration Lawyer I have ever found. I highly recommend Leonard D.M. Saunders, BA, JD, at The Immigration Law Firm, Blaine, WA. His clarity, integrity, expertise, and pragmatism while approaching Visa and USA immigration law is refreshing. I specifically valued his personal skills of calling you on the phone without hesitation to understand your immediate United States Customs and Immigration Services concerns. A happy green Card holder. Many thanks to Leonard Saunders. Ramsay Millar, CEO & CIO.
We’re writing this review to recommend Len Saunders. Len is an outstanding Immigration attorney based in Blaine, Washington, however he can assist nationwide. My husband and I are based in Panama City Beach, Florida. Len has an exceptionally strong eye for detail, that has been a benefit to us on more than one occasion during this process. Len is a rare find in this field as he charges a flat fee for his service, I can’t count how many phone calls and texts we exchanged, He responds immediately and honestly the importance of having an attorney who proactively know’ s the 100 things that can go wrong, sets him apart in our opinion. From application to receiving my spouse’s green card was approved in record time. We can’t thank him enough for the amazing experience which he provided.
We just used Len to help get my US Visa. He went way, way above and beyond for us during this process and I can't recommend him highly enough. We originally started the immigration process ourselves but became increasingly frustrated and decided to use a lawyer to finish it. Best decision ever! We only wish we had used Len from the start as it would have prevented a lot of stress. He's knowledgeable, responds quickly and explains everything clearly. It made the process so much easier. Save yourself the stress and frustration and call him. It's worth it!
