Mr. Alvoid is very personable and a knowledgable lawyer. His consultation and advice is been very helpful in my case. Most importantly he returns calls and emails very promptly. I would definitely recommend him to anyone seeking immigration help.

Voy a escribir esto en espagnol, para expresarme mejor y que mis paisanos me entiendan bien, y no crean que es que estoy usando mal el ingles. Por favor nunca, pero nunca se les ocurra contratar a este segnor. No contesta ni siquiera un email. Destruyo el futuro mio y de mis hijos. Comete tantos errores durante el proceso, que despues son irremediables. No crean a las personas que escriben cosas bien de el, son amigos que el manda a escribir, incluso a sus empleados los manda a hacer buenos reviews. La comunicacion es pesima, no contesta el telefono, no contesta los e-mails, claro despues que se le paga completo y te hace firmar un "contrato" que dice que los fees no son reembolsables.......Es un irresponsable que no sabe lo que hace, creanme, por culpa de el me tengo que ir de USA, no vale la pena seguir esperando 6 agnos mas a que este segnor haga las cosas bien, o que las aprenda por ensayo y error. Que vaya a estudiar otra vez a ver si aprende algo y no le destruye la vida a gente trabajadora que esta legalmente en USA.

Mr. Alvoid is a great, honest person and attorney. He always did everything he said he was going to do and kept me informed of all things. He is very knowledgeable and didn't hurry me out of his office. He returns phone calls in a very reasonable amount of time also.

Mr. Richard Arlen Alvoid Jr. is one of the most professional, responsible and reliable lawyers I've ever had. Not that he perfectly knows how to achieve the goal, he also is a pleasant person to have a business with.
In my case Mr. Alvoid did an outstanding job in helping my family to immigrate. He kept us informed about every single detail and paperwork we had to do to get our visas.
I would definitely use his service again if needed.

Mr. Alvoid and his office staff are top notch. They care about their clients and they will go above and beyond to assist them. I have NEVER felt I could not reach Mr. Alvoid....he even responds to emails on week ends and after normal business hours. He's also available via skype. For those who have left negative comments I suspect that Mr. Alvoid did everything in his power to WIN your cases yet because you ended up with judges that had very high denial rates, your cases were not won. This does not mean he's a bad attorney it simply means that not every case is approvalble no matter how good the atorney. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone and I DO recommend him to all my frineds.

Took a lot of money and after that lost our case at the immigration, made some blunt mistakes in our case, it's hard to fix them now, didn't even come with us for the master hearing, sent his assistant. After that never could find him at the office, never answered his phone, very hard to reach, could answer only over email, this is after taking over 10.000$, very expensive and destroyed our future
Lawyer’s Comment:
This case was in front of an Immigration Judge with an 80% denial rate. I prepared and presented a solid case as I do with all my clients. I answered every email in a timely and detailed manner. The contract allows for me to send my Associate to hearings, which was not mentioned as a problem until AFTER the decision. I personally prepared these clients for the hearing in more than one hour long preparation session. It would be nice if these things were said directly to me before publicizing them to the world

He greatly helped me with my immigration matter. He has a very pleasant way of communication, he listens to you closely, and I could really trust him. My case was told 'small chance' and I was turned by several other lawyers. He told me the same, but he definitely knew how to handle the case, and he is very knowledgeable in the area. His fee was very reasonable, that I regretted that I paid more than double for a different attorney who couldn't even help me. I'm really glad that I found him.

I have never met a lawyer as Mr. Alvoid, he truly cares and takes your concerns as a personal mission to get you justice. (at least thats how we felt!) Mr. alvoid is a top notch lawyer. His fees are beyong resonable and I truly felt I barely paid anything for the stellar work Mr. alvoid did for us. (downright affordable!!) He is extremely polite, professional and understanding. He is very efficient as is his staff. My husband and are are professionals in the health field. Yet my husband's greencard was delayed for 2 years with no explanation. After Mr. Alvoid took my husbands case, we had a swift reply from immigration and had the card in 1month! He truly seeks justice and levels the playing field. He lets you know that you have rights as well and does not tolerate discrimination or bullying, no matter who the aggressor may be. He handles each case as top priority; I felt that my case was his most urgent case, although he has many other clients! He personally handles his emails, returns calls quickly without any phone games (you know what I'm talking about if you have dealt with a lawyer or two), and goes through every effort to make sure there are no complications or confusions. I recommend Mr. Alvoid to any one seeking immigration assistance/justice. I honestly wish that Mr. Alvoid charged us more, as I feel that he deserved more for all he did. I will never forget his hard work, dedication and passion for justice.

He handled an immigration case for me and have to redo the paper works because of a lot of errors on the visa forms. Terminated him but he came back suing me for more money. I was so unhappy with his services and would never recommend him to anybody.
Lawyer’s Comment:
This person terminated me because I handled the difficult part of the case then they wanted to avoid further paying me. The Court ruled in my favor after a full hearing on the evidence.

I used his services on many times.He was reffered to me by a friend and I was very satisfied with his services.He is very knowledgeable,has succeeded in many,many cases(I googled him before my appointment,but also has helped many of people I know and recomended him to).He is also very honest. If there is nothing that could be done to help you he will not lead you on.
Also he makes sure client understands everything that he is saying.
Overall,great lawyer.I used others and Richard Alvoid is the one I would reccomend.
Lawyer’s Comment:
Todo que esta' escrito arriba son mentiras. Esta persona esta' enojado porque yo no reimbolsaria' il dinero despues de ganar lo que mi ha pagado, y con exito absoluto del caso. Yo juro que he respuesto a cada email che recibo, incluendo esta persona. Ademas, no he destruido la vita de ninguna persona, y se puede llamar al Florida Bar para confirmar que mi record es limpissimo. Si esta persona tiene el valor, me pueden mandar un email directamente a me decindo estas cosas. E' ironico que la gente che se accusa del dano es las ellos mismos que lastiman otros con este tipo de mensaje que seria mejor managedo en persona. Que se encuentre paz del corazon.
