This is a very long over-due THANK YOU and review for Philip Hornick. I was a green card holder when I got married in 2012. My wife was here in the U.S. on a student visa. We got married with the understanding that I would never be able to get my U.S. Citizenship based on what all the other Attorneys had advised due to my record. Mr. Hornick took the time to review my situation and he took a different approach that no other Attorney had brought up. He helped me apply for my U.S. Passport which I received and still use to this day as proof of Citizenship for international travel. Several years after receiving my U.S. Passport, my wife went through the process and is now a U.S. Citizen. My In-Laws also received their Permanent U.S. Residency. NONE OF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF IT WASN'T FOR PHILIP HORNICK!!! Thanks a million Mr. Hornick!!! I will never forget your name and what you have done for me and my Family!!!
