Mr. Kanu is a very unprofessional lawyer who doesnt care about his clients and most importantly doesnt care about his own employees. I would highly recommend not coming here unless you want to have terrible experience. Please find somewhere else who will actually help you!

Absolutely best lawyer. He did everything that he can to be successful in my case. My case took almost 5 years. I moved out of state. He came to a different state to represent me to the uscis. There is too much good things to say about MR. Kanu. Thanks for everything. If you are looking for a aggressive immigration lawyer look no further. He will do best he can.

Horrible experience with this lawyer. My sister and brother-in-law hired him to for a court hearing and they ended up getting scammed for their money. No help whatsoever and when cops were called the assistant changed the whole story of what happened. If you want actual representation and a good lawyer I recommend looking elsewhere these people are most definitely not going to help you out!

I was denied citizenship for reasons only USCIS knew, and a lot was at stake. When I hired attorney Kanu & Associates, they took the bull by the horn and came out with a strategy that handled the case diligently. They were very professional, knew what they were doing and I finally had my citizenship on April 16th.This couldn't have happened without the help from Kanu and Associates , I can't thank you enough and continue to do what you are doing. You are helping a lot of families and I appreciate y'all.

My husband and I came to Kanu and associates back in 2018 for representation and legal advise. At first they were very kind and responsive and even made arrangements for us to split the fees into a payment arrangement. As soon as we finished paying them their money the quality of service went down significantly! For 2 years anytime we needed to get in touch with them via phone we could never reach them. We were told they would contact us within 3 business days and never heard back unless we sent multiple emails or stopped by the office to speak to someone in person. In addition to not getting in
