EXCELLENT Based on 291 reviews Kevin Taylor2025-07-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. DHS is a cluttered maze by their own admission. They instruct you to submit the forms, you comply, then suddenly you are in the wrong line, wrong department, wrong form, incomplete documentation. Let Passage Immigration help you get things in order, smooth out the process, handle the deliberate confusion, and get you and/or your loved ones to the “finish line.” They did it for us, they may be the solution you need when times become unbearable. Make the call. We did and Passage Immigration delivered. Yohannes GG2025-06-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

Working with Erick and the team at Passage Immigration Law was an outstanding experience from start to finish. Erick is an exceptionally knowledgeable, compassionate, and dedicated attorney. His entire staff was equally attentive and supportive throughout the process. They stayed on top of every detail and made my naturalization journey smooth and stress-free. Erick personally accompanied me to my interview, which I passed in just 15 minutes—and I was fortunate to take the oath that same day.

A++++ Passage Immigration Law has gone above and beyond to make our experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. Eric and Max are truly some of the best people you could ever meet—professional, compassionate, and incredibly responsive. Whether by email, text, or phone call, they were always quick to respond. My husband's case was particularly unique and challenging, but Eric and Max didn’t give up. They went the extra mile to dig deep and find a crucial source that made a big difference in supporting our case. To anyone going through a similar immigration process, I wholeheartedly recommend Passage Immigration Law. I have full confidence in their team and the care they give to each case. Another big plus is their location—right next door to the USCIS office. It’s impossible to miss, and their office is beautiful: clean, neat, and welcoming. There's even a coffee corner where you can relax, as well as a small kids’ play and reading area. They truly consider everyone's needs. Eric, thank you so much—from the bottom of our hearts.
