What are the costs?
In order to obtain a permit on the first application, our office prepares its own documents to increase the likelihood of obtaining a permit, such as various statements of circumstances and letters of appeal. Although these documents are optional, the result will be completely different if you have them or not. An inexperienced government lawyer can only prepare general documents, which may result in a disallowance and However, even in such cases, we have been able to obtain a number of permits for our clients. If you want to get your permit in the shortest possible time, please contact us.
