Daniel T.
“I was looking to efficiently secure my US citizenship, after holding a Green Card for over 20 years. Berardi Immigration provided me clear advice and assistance in completing the paperwork. They always followed up to ensure that I was well prepared at every step. My favorite part of working with Berardi Immigration law was the responsiveness – questions are answered quickly, very competently, with clear direction and in a most friendly manner.”
