My goal was to get residential status in the US, and my hurdles were crimes of moral turpitude committed some 45 years ago. I had consulted with 3 other immigration lawyers prior to speaking with Richard Hanus and he was the only one that inspired both my wife ( a US Citizen) and myself that achieving my goal was not as difficult as we had been led to believe. Indeed we succeeded and I received my green card, feeling more than relieved to know I can reside in the U.S. without further worry. Richard and his staff are 100% professional, extremely thorough, easy to deal with and we always received a rapid response to any questions we had. My wife and I strongly recommend Richard Hanus as the Lawyer to contact should anyone be seeking an immigration lawyer

This is the best law firm to help with immigration law.   I received the green card, and with a lot of legal help/guidance from Richard during the process that helped me not to panic. I appreciated that all the possible outcomes of actions were explained to me very thoroughly and he made it easy for me to follow all the steps in the process.   Honesty and transparency during the process are the most important things to me, and for someone looking for these qualities, this firm is definitely worth doing business with.   The service was very professional and reasonably priced. All my expectations were met, and I would like to take the opportunity to thank Richard Hanus and his team for all the help that meant so much to me and my family.  I am extremely thankful.

Mr. Hanus is a person you can trust, he will take care of your issue to the fullest extent. We were working on resident status for my wife and he provided a seamless solution with plenty of guidance and willingness to patiently answer our questions. In fact it was his responsiveness, and the security we felt with him at our side, that we valued the most about working with him and his firm during this process. Immigration law is stressful and getting answers immediately put us at ease. Mr. Hanus answers complex legal questions in ways that make it easy to understand and never once made us feel ignorant to the process. We were referred by a close family that we can trust and based on our experience, we strongly recommend Richard Hanus to anyone we know in need of immigration law legal services.

After my Asylum case was transferred to the Emigration court I had to hire a reliable lawyer. Richard Hanus came highly recommended by several of his former clients, and I can say I had 100% Satisfaction with him and his services. I won the case and I was able to be reunited with my overseas family who were able to get special visas to travel and live in the U.S. Mr. Hanus made a promt response to any inquiry and also had availability for a quick meeting if needed , also the fees were reasonable. Any future client of his will feel like I did, that my case was in a reliable and caring hand.

Richard and his firm helped me and my employer through all steps for the H-1B, H-1B extension and then my green card process. Each step went so smoothly, with well-organized planning and prompt status updates. There were no surprises such as missing document or deadlines, disapproval, and etc. One of the most important things for me while the process was pending was I felt I was certain that I was going to get what I wanted to get through him. Having that confidence makes me recommend other people to do business with him without hesitation. Thank you to Richard and his staff!

Richard is extremely knowledgeable and his staff is very efficient and responsive. We had been denied approval because the immigration people lost one of our applications and we were not sure the best approach to solving this. We hired Richard Hanus to to help us and he represented us in resubmitting all of the proper paperwork, prepared us and accompanied us for our interview at the immigration office and made sure we felt confident along the way, especially in maintaining communication with us through all steps and keeping the process as simple as possible. In a fairly short period, we were able to receive the green card for my wife. Also important to note, his legal fee was very reasonable.

My family is really happy to meet Richard Hanus. I recomended him for any kind of immigration service. Richard is really hardworking lawyer. We trusted him and two days ago we got excellent results.

He will fight for your case as if he is fighting for his own brother or sister or children.

Richard gives it a 150% and I am truly lucky to have come across him at a very urgent time of need.

Highly highly recommended. Professional, intense, aggressive and someone who knows the law like the back of his hand!

I was settled my case and very impressed with the settlement amount I was received. Thanks Richaed Hanus!!!

Our family was faced with not knowing how to apply for my mother’s permanent status because of name discrepancies on different birth records. Mr. Hanus came up with a plan and my mother was able to receive her workers permit within 3 months from filing and was granted permanent residence within a years time. His law firm very organized, informed, and answered all my concerns along the way. I especially applaud their handling of multiple ‘RFE Responses’. I appreciate the work Mr. Hanus and his firm provided and I’ve recommended him to my family members.

While having Richard Hanus as my attorney, I came to know that he is fast, knowledgeable and performs an efficient job in achieving a favorable result for me, his client. He does business in a professional way. I had previously been represented by incompetent lawyer and my case regarding change of status to permanent resident was denied. I got a letter from deportation stating that I cannot stay within the country anymore which bothered me so much in my daily living thinking about my son and myself future life going to be and what is waiting ahead of us. My life was really affected such as my whole being mentally, emotionally, physically distracted. I was just living day by day thinking over and over again what is life ahead of me and my son who is still waiting for me in my country hoping to be with me here in the US. My goal is to be happy living with my family (husband and son) here with me. The result that I received from attorney Richard Hanus was when I got the case re-opened by the immigration and my denied green card was overturned by the Judge. Finally, I got my green card from the mail which I feel better now that I was free from all those struggles that I went through along my case. The best benefit was that attorney Richard Hanus and his secretary Anna made feel releived and able to get through the process in a relaxed feeling. Another thing also that I would like to add is Law offices of Richard Hanus is the best in Illinois and Chicagoland. Services made has no delay as always in a timely manner. Richard Hanus is the best attorney/lawyer that you can fully trust.

Richard he is very greedy and very very rude, he is the most expensive attorney in Chicago, he don't get the job done right, he is very week with the immigration cases, Avoid

Richard Hanus was recommended by my family friends who used his services previously and were extremely satisfied. The recommendation turned out to be a success and Mr. Hanus helped my mother get her green card – through me as a U.S. citizen - in just 5 months and with no issues whatsoever. I now highly recommend Mr. Hanus as well. He is experienced and knowledgeable, he is very easy to work with . He would reply to my emails even after he was done with the case. He was informing us on every step of the way about what was going on and what we were suppose to expect.

After another attorney tried to convince me to sue the US government and at the same time, refile a new application, I decided to consult with Richard Hanus about my citizenship case. Mr. Hanus confirmed my suspicions that the other attorney’s advice was inappropriate, and thanks to his careful guidance, I am now being sworn in as a U.S. citizen. At the first meeting Mr. Hanus confirmed that my application was so straightforward that I don't need an attorney at all and that any services he offered was a luxury. Nevertheless I retained his services because I felt I needed the luxury. Mr. Hanus swiftly completed and filed my application, and his services continued with representation at the interview and quick responses to emails and follow up throughout the process. As someone who was so truthful in answering my questions about the need of hiring a lawyer, I can say Richard Hanus is as honest and trustworthy an attorney as there is in the Chicago area.

Richard Hanus is an extremely competent lawyer whom you can trust. We especially appreciated his clear straightforward style, and his office's efficient and careful processes when it came to preparing our paperwork for filing with Homeland Security. Initially, we had hard time to make the decision regarding if starting green card application, due to concerns on our complicated work/life situation. We consulted a few law offices before decided to work with the Law Offices of Richard Hanus. When we first met with Richard, the initial consultation/evaluation on our case was very straightforward, and he confidently provided us with a clear path and what could happen during the process. The process went as planned thankfully, and our green cards were approved with only minor additional info requirement. For all of Richard and his office's assistance, my family and I are most grateful.

The Law Offices of Richard Hanus, with great success, assisted us from start to finish throughout the immigration process. My family and I were looking into immigrating to the United States from Canada, and were up against the complexities of the US immigration process. We were unsure as how to proceed and our options, therefore we contacted Richard Hanus for information and advice on how best to move forward. Richard was referred to us from a friend who had a positive and successful outcome after using him. The final result was my family receiving their immigrant visas/green cards and a pathway to US citizenship. What I enjoyed most about working with Richard Hanus was his knowledgeability in his field of working with the US government in regards to his clients and their immigration goals. He advised and spoke intelligently about the immigration process, presented accurate timelines and appropriate case studies when necessary. He was expedient on his end when submitting documents/correspondence for each case. Richard was also very informed on the current and changing laws pertaining to US immigration and advised appropriately on how they may and/or may not pertain to each case. All in all, if you're looking for excellent service and counsel that is reliable, conscientious and knowledgeable, Richard Hanus and his firm are for you.

Attorney Hanus and his assistant, Ana, helped me navigate the many requirements needed for a successful application for my wife to live in the United States. I was scared of making mistakes if I tried to do this without legal representation and assistance, especially in today’s environment, where it is a nerve-wracking time to try bring a loved ones to the U.S. from overseas. Attorney Hanus produced all the documents/form that the U.S. government requires – and provided us with detailed guidance. With that, I felt confident my wife and I were doing everything correctly and thoroughly as we went through the multi-step application process over the course of many months, and ultimately, my wife’s visa to live in the United States was approved! I could count on very prompt replies to our questions, and turn-around of flawless documents that we needed to provide for my wife visa application Immigration law deals with hugely impactful issues and ramifications such as whether you can physically be with your loved ones or not. The stakes are too high to run the risk of making a mistake because you don’t know what you are doing with all the required forms, documents, and instructions. The peace of mind that you receive from working with an experienced legal expert like Attorney Hanus in these matters is priceless.

Mr Hanus was successful in fighting my removal case and to reverse a negative court decision. Now I am allowed to keep my green card after a voting issue and a lot of unfortunate events took place, like my previous attorney coming to my hearing late and unprepared. I was hopeless and desperate when I came to Mr. Hanus, but he takes his job and my case seriously. He is an attorney who does his homework and cares about his clients and his confidence in himself made me feel confident too. He knew what he was doing which is comforting when your future is on the line.

Richard will also explain you what he will do with the money that you pay him. He is reliable and goes with the client for all court dates or appointments at Homeland Security. Our case involved reopening an old deportation order and eventually getting my husband his green card after getting approval of his provisional waiver. Richard guided us successfully throughout every step and we are most grateful. Thank you Richard.

Having the opportunity to work professionally with Richard on a regular basis I can speak from first hand experience that he is a superb immigration attorney possessing great skill and a empathy and concern for his clients that is rarely seen elsewhere. Highly recommend him.

f you are in need of counsel for ANYTHING regarding immigration, aren't sure about representation, STOP and call Richard Hanus for a consult. You will not find a more honest or ethical attorney. I had consulted with three immigration attorneys before seeking Richard's counsel for my green card case. With Richard, I received the most concise, professional, direct and honest advice. On top of that, he displays a deep sense of humanity and empathy toward those seeking to manage the complicated roads to immigration in this country. He truly cares about his clients and is passionate about what he does. Richard and his staff outlined every step I had to take very clearly, which was a gift when you are facing a situation such as immigration. I never felt alone or that he or his team were too busy to attend to my situation. I highly recommend Richard Hanus and his law office.

Working with Attorney Richard Hanus, you will have a peace of mind and confident because he was so prepared, is on time with all promises and keeps his clients informed during process. He would tell you what exactly to do, very clear, just follow his direction. My sister had come to USA with fiance visa. In order to obtain her permanent resident card and because her language barrier, she hired an attorney to handle her immigrant case. However, she had failed the immigration hearing because of insufficient supporting documents and her case was transferred to the immigration court where she faced deportation. That’s when we found Mr. Hanus, who had the experience and expertise to make sure my sister's case have passed the immigration court smoothly. She got her permanent resident card this month and my sister and our whole family are all extremely grateful.

Very honest guy and I know it sounds funny because he’s a lawyer but it’s true . Me and my family are Very grateful for him and his staff .

Richard he is very rude, greedy and very expensive attorney. He is not that great with the tough immigration cases.

We liked working with Richard Hanus because he had a proven track record for getting results, and after the result he got for us, I know for a fact his is the best law firm to handle immigration cases. We first picked Richard because of his sterling reputation because when you are going through something like this you want someone with experience and a steady hand, who can act confidently, and professionally. My spouse and I wanted me to have a legal status here in the US. Off course we don’t want our family to be torn apart. We used to be so worried all the time, that one day they would pick me up and deported me to the Philippines. Our case was a difficult one and with Richard’s counsel we were able to put together the evidence that we needed to prove our case. Now that I got my Green Card, I can stay and reside and work here in the US. And I can’t wait for a day that I would be able to apply to become a US citizen. When my spouse and I got married, we vowed to live together until death do us part. Now we can grow old together in the United States.

My mom used Richard as her attorney to apply for her US citizenship . We were extremely pleased with his services and his attention to detail with her application. He answered every email, phone call immediately and accompanied my mom the entire time. He kept us informed and up to date thru the entire process. We appreciated his services and would definitely recommend him to anyone.

My application for an immigrant visa was a complicated process. I thought that I would never see the day when I will be granted a visa, due to all the hurdles that I was made to go through. Mr Hanus expertly guided me throughout the complicated and lengthy process - took 9 years. This positive outcome would not have been possible if not for Mr Hanus' in-depth knowledge of immigration law and his expertise in navigating the complex process.

Richard Hanus is one of the best Immigration attorneys in the state. He and his office staff show excellent professionalism and he always tells it how it truly is. Mr. Hanus helped me get my DACA and Employment Authorization Permit approval and then extension and he provided miscellaneous counseling on other matters. Also through swift action and follow up needed because of government delays, he helped me keep my current employment from being terminated. I am grateful he's been my lawyer for years and wish to refer and keep his services for many years to come.

He is the only immigration lawyer that I completely give my trust because he will give his clients an honest and truthful assessment of your case. He will fight for you even if it's a difficult and unpopular path once he determined that you have a case. He fought hard for us and believed in us.

Mr. hanus beat those chances and my sister was saved . My family is very grateful. I tell everyone I know about Mr. Hanus. He is also helping out another family member. His prices are fair for the work that he does. He gives you no BS and is very professional. Thanks again Rich. Muy buen abogado!!

We have worked with attorney Richard Hanus on multiple instances for processing non-immigrant visas. He has been very professional in all aspects. Mr. Hanus gave us clear instructions on what needs to be done and walked us through the process. He was always available when needed and promptly return calls. Without his professional assistance, it would have been a lot harder for us to process those visas. I recommend Mr. Hanus for immigration services, he is the best around in Chicago.

Richard is currently working on a case of mine and i have faith in him 100% he helped out my older sister Juana and for that me and my entire family are very greatful one of the best immigration lawyers in Chicago i had gotten referred to Mr Hanus by many people who he has helped. Prices are fair for the QUALITY of work he puts in.He really digs in deep when preparing for a case and the work shows, great attorney!

The best service I have ever used ever penny was worth its way.
This is the first attorney that i have seen to be one hundred procreant honest and straight shooting
My story is one of those involving removal (deportation ). It starts when i was fourteen ears old now i am twenty-eight and i all most got on the airplane to Bulgaria with no hope to stay in Chicago. Awaiting my deportation in ICE custody
my family got a hold of Richard Hanus, at that point i had a conversation with him and determined my chances, by this said they were not big.
He did everything possible fighting for me until the last moment exploring every angle he pushed forward not stoping at any barrier even personally delivering my paperwork to the immigration service.
I was granted to stay on the way to the airport the officer handling my transportation did not believe this, he could not understand how this happened (one of the officers bursted out " he must have a really good attorney " ).
Based on my experience with immigration attorneys (ten years and up) he is the best and I will continue to use his services any time i need.
Thank you Richard from me and my family.
