“I truly enjoy working with SWLG and value the counsel the firm has to offer. SWLG has always been quick to respond to my (endless) questions and requests and take the time to help me understand and navigate the vagaries of immigration law. SWLG has often gone the extra mile for us, at a cost to the firm, and I appreciate that. In my book,SW Law Group is certainly the immigration law firm of choice and I honestly can’t think of any way to improve your services.”

Once we found SW Law Group, they were extremely supportive and helpful, and successfully obtained the necessary visas for us.

“One of the greatest challenges a Japanese company faces in the U.S. is finding businesses that can offer Japanese-quality, full-service support. Whenever we work with SW Law Group, their efficiency, professionalism, speediness, and quality of customer care never ceases to amaze me, often leaving me in awe and questioning whether I am really conducting business in the U.S.
I always hear horror stories about the difficulties and challenges regarding immigration, but SW Law Group makes me feel as though these are nonexistent. I am certain that the top quality services provided by this firm are due to the incredible professionalism of all its staff, and their commitment to providing nothing short of the best for their clients.”
