About Herb

Please describe a case(s) in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
On a Provisional Waiver case I-601 we were able to have USCIS Chicago District Office approve the extreme hardship
to a U.S. citizen spouse which led to an approval for the greencard for a husband who entered on a false passport. His name was misrepresented on
his passport and USCIS demanded a waiver of the misrepresentation. Based on the wifes medical records and detailed affidavits from myself and
my paralegal and affifavits from the Petitioner and beneficiary he was approved for the I-601 and greencard.
