Richard M Costa

Mr. Costa and his team are excellent. Mr. Costa helped to me and my family during our O-1 visa and then green card applications. The work is successfully accomplished by him and we had our visas and green cards without any problem. Mr. Costa and his team are honest, friendly and always available. T...hey always kindly answer our questions in patience. Mr. Costa is an excellent immigration lawyer. Me and my family highly recommend him.

I met Richard Costa 2 years ago, when he came to Harvard Medical School as main speaker for a workshop on US immigration. I was very impressed by his experience and expertise on immigration laws, given the diversity and the complexity of the questions that Richard had to answer this precise day. T...wo years after, I decided to start a green card application. I immediately decided to have an initial consultation with him at his office, to discuss about the process. He took the time to listen my case, answered my questions and never pushed me for hiring him. Throughout the process, it was a pleasure to work with him and others members of his team (Kate especially). High level of professionalism, quick answers to my questions and clear communication until the end of the process. I will highly recommend the services of Costa & Riccio LLP to others looking for an attorney experienced on US immigration!

Okay, just to be clear, I am not a kind of person who would take time and write review stuff unless there are strong reasons why. Yes, I've been feeling deeply grateful for the work by Richard Costa and his team, and I am happy that I finally get to share my experience working with them. It was a...bout a year ago - Richard Costa graciously took over my case while I was undergoing extremely challenging situation around complex H1B extension and green card application while working at Yale. My case required a great deal of experience and expertise given that its working process had to involve extremely cautious (and elegant) collaboration with some of very conservative parties at the university. I was very much satisfied with not just the outcome but also the process of his work, particularly by the level of professionalism, accountability, organization, and timely response. Of course, his highly regarded reputation in the field was unexpected plus too. What impressed me the most though was the level of compassion that I saw from him and his team throughout the whole working process - it was very clear to me that he genuinely care about his work as well as his clients (including myself!). I met/consulted with 7-8 attorneys around New England and East Coast prior to making a decision on retaining my attorney (yes, I do have a bit of obsessive traits), I can confidently say he is one of the few ones who will really care about you! Well, thank you so much, Richard and the team for the work you do! I hope my review will help people understand better what a wonderful service you and your team provide for us.

Attorney Costa and his team have done an excellent job for my case of removing conditions on PR based on a marriage that was in the beginning phase of divorce. I thought it would be a very complicated case, but Attorney Costa and his team end the case with a success in 10 months. When I first call up... lawyers to consult my case, Attorney Costa was the only one that was nice and patient enough to spend a good 45 mins with me to listen to what I have to say and providing constructive suggestions. Most lawyers I reached out at most spent 3 mins on the phone and told me to make an appointment for $300+ for 1hr of consulting... Attorney Costa is a very nice guy and is always there to answer his phone and email whenever I have questions.
