Mr. Zaveri- Great attorney

I consulted Mr. Prerak Zaveri for RFE on my U visa case. The advice Mr. zaveri gave me was very useful. First of all he gave me the hope that I needed the most and also had great suggestions about what needs to be done for my case. Mr. Zaveri was very patient and answered all the questions and concer...ns I had regarding my case. Mr. Zaveri is very knowledgeable and really cares for his clients. I really appreciate his help.

Great, very pleasant, takes the situation seriously and connects personally

Mr. Zaveri has been assisting me and my fiance since the beginning of 2013 in the process of obtaining my K-1 visa (Fiance Visa). His advises have been very useful and as of this point, the visa has been approved and I am waiting to have the interview scheduled. In case of a denial, with the help of ...Mr Zaveri we have our I-601 folder ready to be mailed. Me and my fiance both appreciate tremendously

Zaveri Law Firm - Good Attorney

I had approached Mr. Prerak Zaveri for the following: My H1B has been approved but change of status from F-1 to H1B has been denied. In such scenarios, I had two options - 1) Go to India for stamping OR 2) File a motion to reopen. After working out both the options, Mr. Zaveri advised me to go for st...amping since my H1B petition was already approved in US. I was really confused before I met Mr. Zaveri to discuss my situation with him. I would like to thank Zaveri Law Firm to give me correct advice for which I am very grateful.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
