Outstanding Immigration Attorney

After an initial denial in my and my son’s case for adjustment of status (I-485) with a family-based petition, we were lucky to have Mr. LeRoy as a lawyer to file service motion on our behalf. He filed a motion at the local immigration office in Newark in an expedited manner. He presented very strong... arguments and was able to convince the USCIS that they were at fault in their denial and their interpretation of the Life Act’s provisions. He was able to get a reopening of the case in a very short amount of time and had us achieve permanent residence status very soon after that. We are eternally grateful and indebted to Mr. LeRoy for all that he has done for our case, and we had been waiting for close to 20 years for this dream to come true. He has great cooperative staff that made everything much easier. We are extremely happy that we had him as our attorney and in this case where time was of the essence to us. He is exceptionally skilled at his practice of immigration law and we certainly recommend him to others who need a great immigration lawyer on their side. Thank you for all you have done for us, Mr. LeRoy.

Forever grateful

I was detained by ICE back in August 2019 with all looking like a deportation even though I had my permanent resident alien card for over 20 years it was at risk. My fiance hired Mr. LeRoy in October 2019 on short notice he managed to get my case together and on December 4th he won my case in court.... I am now a free man enjoying this country thanks to my attorney Mr. LeRoy the best of the best. Thank you for all your time and effort any recommendations for immigration would go to you I believed in you since day one.

Excellent attorney

My husband and I recently worked with Mr. Le Roy to process our status change application and we couldn't be happier. Mr. Le Roy was patient, straightforward, and responded rapidly (and personally!) to all of our emails. He turned a confusing and intimidating process into a painless experience. I wou...ld recommend him ten times over to anyone in need of an immigration attorney.

OCEANS OF KNOWLEDGE...!!!!

Don’t wanna name out but my previous attorney messed up the case and I have to leave the country. Eventually, I was referred to Att. Lawrence K. LeRoy by my friend. I was relieved when I heard Att. Lawrence K. LeRoy was himself Ex-Immigration Officer with Department of Homeland Security. He under...stood my case very carefully and handled it very deligently. He is so professional and being a Ex-Immigration Officer he has tons and tons of knowledge. By the way he handled my case while I was out of country as I said above it was messed by other attorney. My case got approved only because of amazing assistance from Att. Lawrence and I arrived in United States. Subsequently, he also filed for my Green Card petition which no wonder got approved ONLY because of his great experience as he arranged all my paper works. He has staff who are really helpful and very quick in response for whatever queries I had. I can’t thank enough to Att. Lawrence K. LeRoy and his expert staff for my journey to United States coming true. I’m retaining this attorney 100% until I become citizen and Yes eventually also to sponsor my family members once I become citizen. I feel I’m so safe after retaining Att. Lawrence K. LeRoy. Words, are not enough to describe him and his staff. I would highly highly recommend his law office for any cases from simple to Complex.

Trustworthy and Knowlegeable

Navigating the confusing and ever changing immigration system nowadays requires having a trustworthy professional to defend your case. After visiting couple of other immigration attorneys, I decided to retain the services of Mr. LeRoy for his reliability and honesty. I could not thank him enough for ...what the did for me. He was very attentive to my case extremely knowledgeable.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Lawrence Le Roy is the only immigration lawyer you will ever need. Mr. Le Roy is the former chair of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). Mr. Le Roy's knowledge in immigration cannot be compared to other lawyers. He is the most ethical attorney one can deal with. He is highly disciplined, honest, competent, and his reputation precedes him even among his peers and judges. He has devoted his entire career and practice to immigration law. He has received more accolades than probably any of us (all lawyers) combined. If he cannot solve your problem, there is a high probability that no other lawyer can. He would be my immigration lawyer, if I needed one. When other immigration lawyers have highly complex questions, they come to Mr. Le Roy for advice. He is the best immigration lawyer in New Jersey and probably in the United States."

"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. LeRoy is the standard by which immigration attorneys in New Jersey are measured. His knowledge of the law is on display daily, as he generously offers advice and suggestions to less-experienced colleagues; he is a true mentor. Mr. LeRoy's longstanding relationships with judges, supervisors and officers places him in the unique position to obtain results that many fail to achieve."
