Very Professional

I am grateful to have found Atty. Alessandro Giordano to represent me and my wife for our case. I went to different lawyers and he is the only one that is thorough and very professional and made me feel comfortable through my circumstances and he definitely knows his scope of expertise. You can feel ...his sincerity and care for his clients as he wants the best for every single client he represents. Right from the beginning when I told him about my case after going to many lawyers it was only him that has the knowledge and expertise to take on my case and we succeeded. He is honest, strategic and straightforward when it comes to resolving my case and it was a pleasure working with him. Him and his team made it such an easy process and explained everything I needed to know so I was never out of the loop and any time I needed them or had any questions they were always there. See for yourself and you won't be disappointed. I highly recommend Atty. Giordano for your immigration needs because you deserve the best.

Very professional, ability to listen and understand, polite, organize and on time, empathy skills

I did contact Alessandro for immigration purposes, especially for a provisional work permit, travel permit and green card approval. Alessandro explained us the process, timing and walk us through every step and made us fell confident about the outcome. Thanks to his advise, we were always ahead of sc...hedule and prepared well ahead of time. We first did fill up the paperwork which we reviewed together before submitting (he also mention relevant stories/experience related to our demand) Alessandro explained us the different scenario possible and the outcome that we could expect. He was available before and after hours to answer specific question that were just popping up in our mind and thanks to all of this, it made our journey way easier and less stressful. when all step were validated and we had to go to the final interview, I very well remember him making sure our "to do" list was complete and that all was in order and ready for submission a few days before and also the exact same morning. He was also present for our final interview, with a copy of the requested paperwork (in case anything happen) and arrived earlier and help us relax before being called in. I would definitely hire him again for any law / court related matter and highly recommend him as a great and punctual professional. Thank you

Exceptional Representation

I retained Mr. Giordano to represent my fiancé in his Adjustment of Status case. We could not be more pleased with his services. Mr. Giordano was extremely professional and courteous throughout the entire process. My fiancé’s case was rather difficult and went on for an extended amount of time. Durin...g that time Mr. Giordano always made himself readily available to the family to answer questions or offer reassurance for our concerns. He is very knowledgeable of immigration law and exceptionally diligent in ensuring he has everything he needs to provide the best representation possible. He and his team assisted us heavily in the daunting task of gathering all of the documentation as well as completing the necessary paperwork for the case. I can happily say that thanks to Mr. Giordano’s representation in court and his assistance with the petitions, my fiancé’s petition for an Adjustment of Status was granted. These results are definitely an indication of the level of dedication and determination Mr. Giordano has in representing his clients. It is apparent that this work is not just a job but a passion for him. He truly did a very thorough job and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone seeking legal assistance with their immigration case.

Ecxellent, competent and compassionate Lawyer!

After reviewing many Immigration Attorney's in the Tampa area on Google, then interviewing 4, my husband and I knew from the very beginning Alessandro was the person who would finally, successfully represent us with Immigration. We have had an extremely frustrating and stress filled history with this... process in N.J. Alessandro was extremely knowledgeable, detail focused and very experienced. He and his Assistant, Erica followed up on everything, paid attention to the numerous challenges in our case, and worked to alleviate our stress throughout. My husbands 1st language is Portuguese and this never mattered to Alessandro even though he does not speak that language, he wove Italian and Spanish into his communication with my husband (along with English as well!) Alessandro met with us numerous times to review every detail before our Interview and again, paid attention to everything! Our Lawyer in NJ never did this in preparation for our Interview up there, Alessandro was absolutely amazing! We are ecstatic to say that with his representation, my husband received his Green Card last month!
