Top notch Immigration Attorney!

Attorney Lavery handled my green card case in 2011. It was not a straightforward case, but that did not deter him at all. He was enthusiastic about the case and relished the challenge that it presented. Attorney Lavery was very knowledgeable and kept me informed throughout the process. I received my ...green card, and am now a citizen of the United States. I could not have done this without the help of Attorney Lavery. I unreservedly recommend Attorney Lavery to anyone who needs immigration services.

An Immigration GOD

I applied for my Naturalization and I had some criminal issues that were somewhat difficult and wasn't sure if I was going to get approved or not. Chris did the research for me and advised me that he saw no problem in my applying for Citizenship (after he saw my CORI report that is). Immigration was ...tough on my case and it took 7 months to get approved but it did get approved. Chris would go to immigration on my behalf every 30 days (after my interview) just so he can keep me informed on what was going on. He is an incredible attorney and truly cares about his clients. He is always reachable and has the patience of a saint because I am telling you I wasn't easy to deal with because I just wanted to know if it was going to get approved or not. I recommend Chris with no hesitation he is unbelievable and made my dream of becoming a U.S. citizen come true....Every attorney should have the passion that Chris does regarding Immigration law.

GREAT IMMIGRATION LAWYER

Chris helped my husband and I with my husband's recent application for a green card. He was most helpful and knowledgable, guiding us through a sometimes complicated process. I would absolutely recommend him, he's one of the best!
