About Shagin Law Group, LLC
The Shagin Law Group LLC was established in March 1996 in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The firm, previously known as Shagin & Anstine LLC, was founded by Craig Shagin and Tim Anstine. Initially, the firm focused on the acquisition and financing of large industrial projects, mining operations, and other businesses, including the software development industry. Demand for assistance with petitions for software engineers and programmers from outside the US led the firm to expand into immigration law.
Today, more than three-quarters of the firm's work is dedicated to immigration law, encompassing deportation defense, asylum, family-based immigration, and business-related immigration. The firm serves clients globally. Its mission is to provide practical and reliable legal solutions to clients facing difficult legal matters.

My H1B application was filed at the last minute and got straight denied after entering lottery system. The attorney Mr. Craig Shagin did not even successfully verified my LCA before sending out the package. And more ridiculously, he was not aware that H1B employers who first time sponsor their employees need to verify EFIN number with DOL, otherwise LCA cannot be approved. If you are seeking legal help about your H1B application from him, rethink. This attorney does not feel the anxiety of this whole application process as much as we internationals do. Such a shame I cannot rate zero.

He is a very helpful and nice guy. He definitely knows what he's talking about. I advise anyone who needs a good immigration lawyer to use his services. It's reasonably priced too so you won't overpay for anything.

Craig Shagin put on a legal clinic before the immigration court when he argued and won my brother-in-law's CAT Petition! My brother-in-law was facing deportation with felony convictions and Mr. Shagin was able to stop the deportation, deliver him out of jail, and return him to his family and four minor kids living in the USA. Thank you for saving his life Mr. Shagin! Successful CAT Petitions are no easy standard and what I liked about Craig Shagin was his realistic approach. He initially felt we may need to appeal up to the 3rd Circuit to obtain relief. He took a long-term and methodical approach to winning on the merits and the record. During the trial, although I did not realize it until afterwards, every question he asked of every witness was so deliberate and intentional in satisfying different elements of the case. He is a passionate and brilliant legal advocate for his clients who does not enter the legal arena to lose! In the end, instead of the family having to appeal into the 3rd Circuit and endure 18 more months of federal detention, Craig Shagin put up a passionate and ferocious defense that both moved the judge and was underscored by the facts, law, and a brilliant expert witness that was hired. If you want the best of the best or an absolute expert, I highly recommend Craig Shagin!
