waste of time and money
consultation was non informative, political narratives brought into conversation leading to the idea not to move to US right now based on lawyer's subjective perception of new policies enforced by new administration. consultation was not worth my time nor money
Gregory Romanovsky
Replied last February 24, 2025Dear Serge, Thank you for sharing your feedback. I’m sorry to hear that you felt the consultation did not meet your expectations. My goal during every consultation is to provide clear, accurate, and up-to-date information regarding immigration matters. As you may have seen in the news, the current political climate and recent changes in immigration policies have significantly impacted the immigration landscape in the United States. It is important to be transparent about how these changes might affect each client’s individual immigration process. I understand if this was not the information you were seeking, but my job is to ensure that clients are well-informed in order to make the best decision for their unique situation. I wish you the best of luck in your quest to relocate to the United States. Greg Romanovsky

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 ...

Replied last February 23, 2023Dear 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.

The worst experience
I hired Greg Romanovsky back in 2016 and followed his recommendation, however, my family got deny during the interview overseas. He blamed trump administration the reason we got deny but as he represents himself the best lawyer I think he should learn each case and know the current immigration situat...
Gregory Romanovsky
Replied last December 05, 2020Dear Anvar, I regret that we were not able to bring your case to completion. As you and I discussed many times, the many changes implemented by the Trump administration did make the immigration process extremely difficult for a lot of people. Despite all of the changes, we continue to be successful in most cases (and this is what sets up apart from the competition), although sometimes we have to sue the government to make them follow the law. As you know, your family fell victim to the new policy related to the public charge requirement (restricting immigration for those who cannot show that they have enough financial support not to become a burden on the U.S. taxpayers). This policy change that had taken place right before your wife's visa interview was extremely unfortunate and unfair to you and your wife. We felt bad for you and continued to assist you well beyond the scope of what you had originally paid for. Since the embassy was still refusing to follow the law, the next logical step was to sue them in federal court. A federal court case of this nature requires a major effort (and special expertise that few immigration lawyers possess), so we could not do it for free for you. You did not want to go through the additional expense, and we understand that. I hope that the new administration will be able to quickly undo all of the harmful policy changes implemented by the previous one, and that your family will be able to join you in the United States very soon!
