He knows what he is to do on complex cases of immigration. He is honest, sincere and straightforward. He will tell you as it is including all the possibilities, negative or positive. With Shanfield you get to know what you are getting into. My case was for my husband's permanent residence, he could have been deported but it was approved within 12 months. Amazing!! Great job.

Daniel was the first lawyer (after retaining 3 before him) who believed me and was optimistic about winning. He was upfront that it would be hard. But something made me believe in him. He told me about his background as how he worked for a refugee service in central asia. It was obvious, he was not doing this because it was his job but he really believed in it. Our case took longer but Daniel did not charge extra. Needless to say we won in the end, I have recommended him to my family & friends.

Efficient and very knowledgeable. Definitely knows how to 1) handle complex, non-standard cases and 2) communicate well with his clients.

Mr. Shanfield works very hard for clients and goes out of his way to solution any issues you might have. His assistants are very good also. I would recommend him to others if needed.
