After a tragic failed visa application in November last year, my sister who lives in the US found Jermel. I live in the UK and over the years have visited my sister dozens of times without issue. This was the first time I had to apply for a visa and first time being declined one. I have to say that whole process was a very demoralising experience. Enter Jermel! He took the reason for my declined application and started working on it. A new date with the embassy was made once we were sure. Jermel was really the one pushing for and collating various specific information for the intended appeal and secured the second interview. He put an amazing application together, it was very comprehensive and extremely professional. Addressing all the reasons for my previous decline. This time round I was much more prepared. Suffice to say last week, nearly a year later following my second interview I was awarded a ten year B1, B2 visa . I can now freely visit my sister and family again. The whole journey was incredibly worrying and very emotional. But with Jermel's help, his experience, professionalism and optimism we did it. The extreme relief and joy felt by the whole family is very hard to quantify. So, from our hearts, thank you Jermel Singleton ..you sir, are pretty damm good!
Shakierah Smith is top-tier. If you need someone who is sharp, professional, and treats you like a real person—not just another case number—she is hands down the best choice. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for an attorney who delivers results.

Jermel is the most reliable, responsible, and professional attorney we have worked with. He treated us as if we were his own family; and spent day and night (yes, he met us one night after 9 pm at his office for an urgent matter). We highly recommend him without any reservations.
Jermel is exactly the kind of lawyer you want in your corner. He brings both top-tier legal training and a practical, business-minded approach. As a NYC real estate brokerage owner (Nieuw Nederlandts Realty LLC), I’ve personally benefited from his advice—he’s helped us reach the next level. His background at one of NYC’s top Big Law real estate firms (Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP) gives him a level of knowledge, experience, and sophistication that truly sets him apart.
Jermel provided exceptional legal services that exceeded my expectations in every respect. From the outset, he demonstrated a deep command of the law, paired with a thoughtful and strategic approach to my matter. He took the time to clearly explain complex issues, ensuring I felt informed and confident at every stage of the process.

What stood out most was Jermel’s responsiveness and professionalism. He was consistently accessible, detail-oriented, and proactive—anticipating challenges before they arose and addressing them with precision. His ability to balance big-picture strategy with meticulous execution is a rare and valuable combination.

Beyond his technical expertise, Jermel brings a strong sense of integrity and genuine care for his clients. It was clear that he was fully invested in achieving the best possible outcome, and his dedication showed in the results he delivered.

I would highly recommend Jermel to anyone seeking high-caliber legal representation. He is an outstanding attorney and a trusted advisor.
Every communication with this law firm has been a positive one. Mr. Singleton is a man of his word. It’s good to have a lawyer who is both trustworthy and understanding.
