Past Performance NEVER Guarantees Future Results

Sean filed my I-601 waiver. Ciudad Juarez denied it. Sean asked them to reconsider, filed another I-601 and USCIS approved it.

Juan

Sean is a top notch immigration attorney whom I was fortunate to have working on my TN to H-1B to green card applications.

Iuliana

I was harassed at work. I told my union and FEHA. A year of nothing. In two months Sean got me reinstated and a settlement.

Lisa, (Unnamed) California County

My boss fired me because I got injured and he didn't want me to use the workers compensation doctor. Sean settled the case.

Rodolfo

Sean Olender helped me with a difficult case and got it approved.

Milena, Manager, Ernst & Young

We represent some clients who have compelling cases and little money at no charge. Sean received the Benito Juarez human rights award in 2008 and the ALRP Volunteer Award in 2012 for taking more than 10 pro bono cases in 12 months. We need volunteers. E-mail Debbie to volunteer.
