After

I was looking for a mentor to help me with my first BIA, and Ozlem came highly endorsed by colleagues and was introduced to me. Her guidance was invaluable, and her expertise in this area is unmatched. Through her mentorship, I gained significant knowledge and confidence, enabling me to prepare a stronger and more polished BIA. Ozlem is not only a phenomenal mentor but also a supportive colleague who expertly navigates the complexities of immigration law. Investing in her guidance was a transformative step that elevated my skills and understanding. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking expert knowledge and mentorship.
I had a tight deadline to submit documents to USCIS, and Ozlam was incredible. She collected the necessary documents and submitted them well ahead of the deadline. She was also very responsive and answered all my questions quickly! I highly recommend her services.

One remarkable aspect of her service was her accessibility. She promised to be both accessible and reachable, and she certainly fulfilled that promise. Once I became her client, I was able to text her on her work cell phone, and whenever I had a question, I could request to speak with her, and she responded immediately.
