Mr. Gus Shihab and his attorneys did an amazing job for my spouse adjustment of status. They provide solid legal advise to our complicated case and it helped us towards the positive outcome. I will definitely recommend to anyone who seeks any immigration advise and Gus will be your solid and highly experienced attorney. I am so happy that we hired him for our case. Five stars well deserved 👍

Attorney Shihab and his colleagues have been tremendously supportive and attentive throughout my AoS timeline. With the complexities that US Immigration demands, it is vital that you have a reputable attorney who is willing to walk you through the whole process, and Attorney Shihab (and Attorney Kessler) did everything with diligence, patience and most importantly, hard work to ensure my case was fruitful through and through. Their front desk receptionist Ms Miriam is also always so polite whenever I would call in to ask a few questions pertaining to my case. I would not trust any other law firm

I’d really like to give a big wonderful Thank You to all of the staff at Shihab & Associates. Honestly I want to share the feeling of freedom and accomplishment. My husband and I have dreamed of the day of completing his process of citizenship. Yes, thankfully that day has come; because of all the hard dedicated work from everyone at Shihab & Associates. They are knowledgeable compassionate attorneys that guide you throughout the entire process. I must say the staff is so friendly even bilingual which is a bonus.

Without any doubt, they are the best-in-class immigration lawyers in Columbus; and I completely vouch for their service. I have done a lot of paperwork with them, and they are very thorough and diligent with the process. There is also a very low probability of receiving an RFE with them. Predominantly, I worked with George Martinez. He was friendly, professional, very understanding of my situation, and went above and beyond to obtain my H1b renewal visa. He is always available and willing to identify the best possible solution to your problems.
And about Gus, I have no words to describe his knowledge

I was a client of Shihab & Associates for 6 years. I went through my H1-B process with them followed by the Green Card process. Both were successful. The team at Shihab was diligent, responsive and caring towards my case. They always answered any questions or concerns I had. They also gave me great advice when I needed it. I am grateful for what they have done for me. I highly recommend them for any immigration related legal needs.

The Shihab Law Firm handled cases for my wife and I pretty well. Mr. Shihab is really professional in replying my concerns in a timely fashion. Sometimes he will reply my email in less than 10 minutes during the weekend! That is more than professional! Mr. George also followed my case through the whole process and he made sure that all applications were processed correctly. I would definitely recommend this law firm to my friends and I will certainly do business with them in the coming future.

I worked with Gus Shihab Law Firm to represent my wife's green card petition followed with consular processing. Attorney and team members are very knowledgeable, and responded to all my questions via email in a timely manner. They made sure all the petitions were filed and fees were paid on time, very accurate, gave the opportunity to review and impressed on how their team organized the supporting documents. We started the process right before the Covid, and my wife got her visa approved a few weeks ago. During this unprecedented time, all my concerns were taken seriously, and they provided practical
