Testimonials

What People Say About Us

In my 69 years of living, I’ve had the pleasure (and sometimes displeasure) of dealing with more than two dozen attorneys. Though most of those whom I hired were tops in their specialties, I can say without reservation that no other matches the quality provided by Jennifer Harding Marlin and her JHM offices.

Why? Top of mind is JHM’s extraordinary level of service. Throughout the CBI process, whenever I have had a question—and there have been dozens—Jennifer has unfailingly responded carefully and helpfully; always within 24 hours and usually within an hour or two. She is precise in her communications. She recognizes that CBI is a vital concern to many of us, and she never guesses. When she doesn’t know something, she admits that and then finds out. Further, her pricing was MUCH lower than that of some other St. Kitts and Nevis CBI agents, most of whom aren’t even attorneys.

Knowledge of the law.
Experience with jurisdictions.
Guidance on choices.
Clear instructions.
Personal availability.
Reasonable pricing.

Robert Prechter author Last Chance to Conquer the Crash (2021)

I’ve worked with the JH Marlin Law firm on numerous matters. I can wholeheartedly recommend them without reservation to anyone considering a second citizenship

Roger Ver Founder of Bitcoin.com

I have a great deal of gratitude for the help of Jennifer Harding Marlin and her firm at JH Marlin Law for helping accomplish my citizenship by investment and passport with Saint Kitts and Nevis. Jennifer did an amazing job. I want to thank her personally for the awesome service that she and her firm provided. I am very happy with the outcome and I personally highly recommend her. She is on the ball. She will answer your communications day or night, almost any time. It made me wonder if she ever sleeps. One of the great benefits of using Jennifer is she is right there on the island of Nevis. As such, she has direct communication with the staff in the Citizenship Investment Unit. She is someone who is actually in the country you are applying for, and I think that is invaluable and I highly recommend that approach, as opposed to picking someone who is living somewhere else and trying to sell you a citizenship. You have an advantage with someone who is actually physically present that I cannot overstate. If you want citizenship in the Caribbean, I personally vouch for and highly recommend Jennifer.

Colin Talks Crypto

We reached out to JH Marlin Law after months of citizenship "consultations" that ultimately left us right back where we started. Along with answering our call on the first try (versus waiting weeks for an initial meeting), we were able to put together a game plan and get started the same day. Within a few weeks we had gathered all of the required documents and they were submitted in-person to the Citizenship by Investment Unit. Five months later our entire family had our citizenship paperwork and beautiful new passports in hand. It was excellent working with the entire JH Marlin Law team throughout the entire process. Not only did they make the citizenship process very easy, they were also gracious enough to help with advice and contacts for related questions like residencies and bank accounts. If you're looking to get started on your citizenship journey and want things done right the first time, we highly recommend JH Marlin Law.

I'm happy to share my experience working with Jennifer. Before I was even sure I wanted to do the CBI program, I called multiple attorneys. Some of them never called me back, some of them called me back the next day, and one of them answered the phone and immediately answered questions for me. That was Jennifer. I have worked with numerous attorneys over the past two years, and Jennifer provided an experience so far beyond the rest. She is highly responsive, generous with her time, deeply knowledgeable, very well connected, and attentive to detail. I had so many questions for her and a relatively complicated case, and she was able to get answers and an opinion from the head of the CBI program before I even decided to apply. Thanks to her knowledge, skills, and connections, I was one of the fastest applicants to ever go through the process. I remember getting a text from her saying "APPROVED!!" And I was in disbelief because I think it was less than 60 days after I submitted my application. She was an absolute joy to work with and still continues to help connect me with other attorneys to deal with other aspects of my international plans. She continues to be generous with her opinions and connections, well after our engagement has ended. I can't recommend her highly enough. I promise you, you will not have a better experience with any other attorney

Steven W

Obtaining a second citizenship was a very important decision and direction for my life. Jennifer was consistently available and knowledgeable when answering all of my questions and always thorough when addressing any issues that revealed themselves. Jennifer is meticulous and professional and that fact gave me every confidence that my application would be approved. I can't recommend Jennifer and her law firm enough!

"My wife and I did the Citizen by investment with JH Marlin. We travel a lot so logistically we knew it was going to require a fair amount of planning. This is where Jennifer and team excelled. They had the whole process so finely tuned that we were able to gather all the required documents and have them certified from our respective home countries, supply everything for submission first time so no hiccups or time delays were experienced. It didn’t seem to matter what time zone around the world we were in as between Jennifer and team we had a timely response with any queries we had while gathering documents or questions about the process.From start to finish they went above and beyond to ensure we knew exactly what was entailed and honestly managed our expectations. The whole process went flawlessly and my wife and I could not recommend JH Marlin Attorneys at Law highly enough."

Travis and Ana

Hiring JH Marlin Attorneys at Law to obtain citizenship-by-investment for my family was perhaps the best decision I have ever made. Their expertise, experience, and exceptional service are truly unmatched. I give them my highest recommendation.

Robert Barrett

I have used citizenship and residency vendors around the globe. From Dubai to Uruguay. JH Marlin Law is one of the best. The established reliability of the Caribbean passports also elevates what they have to offer. I highly recommend this firm. The workers here are straight forward, disciplined and hands on, as well as having a comforting personal touch. I have recommended JH Marlin law's services to family and friends. I recommend it to anyone else seeking second citizenship to diversify, for freedom, and financial success in this crazy world.

Daniel Nelson, USA

JH Marlin was the perfect choice in obtaining my CBI. Every step of the way they were clear and responsive. The fact that Jennifer is there, on the ground, means she has her finger on the pulse of the place and can get things done. I absolutely recommend JH Marlin as your choice for CBI’s - you will not regret working with the best.
