Personable & Intelligent Immigration Attorney

Michael helped my wife and I with her immigration to the U.S. from Latin America. For us, this was a very stressful minefield to be navigating, but Michael made sure to keep us at ease while he explained how the process would move forward. He gave us actionable advice along the way so that we were fu...lly prepared for what was to come. Our case was relatively straightforward, but whenever we had questions, big or small, he would make himself available to us throughout the process.

He helped us through the whole process until we got approved!

Michael was always responsive, a good listener and so helpful. He was very patient with our many, repetitive questions. He never made us feel like we were too much for him (although I think we were!). It was a great experience that ended up wonderful when we finally received our green cards. No need ...to say that we'll definitely hire him again for our next step in the immigration journey.

Most sincere, straightforward and ethical lawyer I've ever worked with

Michael is so wonderful! We worked with Michael on our marriage-based green card application. He was so easy to work with, he's super responsive, uses plain language that is clear and easy to understand, and just goes above and beyond. He untangles the intimidating process of applying for a green car...d and gives you sound and reliable counsel every time. We are so lucky to have found him! I would recommend him without reservation.

Michael is highly experienced, professional and knowledgeable immigration lawyer. He is very patient, easy to reach and responds to email/phone calls quick. I would recommend Michael as immigration lawyer.

The most hardworking, honest, ethical and patient lawyer you’ll meet!

Michael is not like any lawyer I have worked with before. He has so much integrity and passion for the work that he does- and most importantly, he is truly working in the best benefit of his clients. Michael will spend extra time answering questions and explaining things in a way that anyone can un...derstand. He doesn’t drag things out nor look for ways to extend a case in order to get paid more like other attorneys often do. Michael does exactly the amount that needs to get done for the best possible outcome. He is sharp and knowledgeable and if he doesn’t know something off the top of his head, he will go and find out the information right away rather than just give an answer. He thinks outside the box and is able to come up with several ways to approach a situation and works together with the client to find what the best way would be for them. I can’t say enough about how much Michael has helped me and has given me hope in a difficult legal battle. I would recommend him to everyone!
