The list that you have provided could bring me a view for what I pay and what I get. It helps me to discuss with attorney in details and ensure that they will provide me those services at the time that I need them, even if I pay in advance.
As always, I appreciate your help and assistance . You are the person who any EB5 applicant needs to consult with.
Patrick
You are great Varvara thanks a lot. I’m so happy for being in touch with you and ask my questions. You are so detailed, knowledgeable and honest.

As I have interacted with you, I notice that you bring in so much value add to a prospective investor as you are suggesting projects from diff RCs after gauging the mindset of the investor…the way u are doing for me. Out her in SG, we see a lot of representatives from RCs who come over.. do a lot of loud talk. But as an investor, it would be wonderful to have who could give an unbiased view.
Sudhir
Your inputs are so refreshingly honest…..contrasting to the hardsell from the marketing teams of RCs. I know of so many friends in the same boat who found the process so overwhelming. Your role as an advisor is really useful.
