Absolutely amazing Immigration Lawyer!

Hiring Mr. Romanovsky and his team was one of the greatest decisions that my wife and myself ever made with getting her immigration papers completed quickly, efficiently, and with absolutely no headache. Gregory and his team were extremely professional; they made every detail and step of the immigrat...ion process clear as day and easy to follow. We were comfortable every step of the way and knew that the documents and process would go smoothly right from the get-go due to Mr. Romanovsky’s knowledge, diligence, and care with our case. He puts an exceptional level of care and attention into every consultation and question and will never leave you confused with any step of the process. We will be sure to return to him for services in the future.

ABSOLUTELY DISAPPOINTING! 0 stars!

I paid my consultation fees and the consultation was wonderful, I was late for consultation and they still answered my questions and told me to get back whenever I am ready to process and they will help to answer any additional questions! After I finished my school and I'm ready to come back they ...want to charge another consultation because apparently, they did not take any notes about my case... I wouldn't be surprised if there would be a lot of hidden fees and additional things coming up on the way because all they care about is making extra little money instead of genuinely care about peoples cases!

Dear Ksenia, I am sorry we did not meet your expectations but, as I explained in my emails and the voicemail that I left for you, we cannot provide you with meaningful legal advice over email when we're not handling your case and don't have a file we can refer to. You had a consultation with me over 6 months ago and, while I did take notes during the consultation, I've since had hundreds of consultations, and I would need to get reacquainted with your situation in detail to provide you with the legal advice you're looking for. I understand you did not want to pay for another consultation, and I appreciate that, but you cannot reasonably expect the consultation fee of $150.00 that you paid last year to cover not just the consultation itself, but any future legal advice on your case. I am glad you thought the initial consultation was wonderful, though. And that you appreciated the fact that I still spent the time to talk to you after you missed your appointment. This is precisely because we genuinely care about helping people, and not just "making extra little money." I personally think this deserves a little more than "0 stars" (and that our inability to provide you with the free consultation you wanted does not justify purposefully hurting our online reputation), but you're certainly entitled to your opinion. We wish you the best of luck with your immigration case.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
