Derek Anthony DeCosmo

Consulted with Derek about my husband who was locked up by ICE. Because of the virus, we had to do this by video call. I paid the consult fee and we started. I emailed him the paperwork I had and he went over what the next steps were. I had questions after our consult ended, so I called back and he a...nswers them. I did speak to two other attorneys, but both of them did not go into detail about what happens next. They didn’t seem to know as much as Derek did. Plus, Sergio who answers the phone and translates for me is a sweetheart. I hired Derek. I paid a deposit but thankfully his firm accepts payment plans. The two other lawyers I called wanted 20 grand up front. Payment plan is better. The paralegal Lee is great with helping me gather documents I need. Hire Derek !

The first time i spoke with derek decosmo i was behind bars and already had my mind made up to throw away 20 years of living in the united states because i thought i had no chance of winning my immigration case because i was coming from prison with a pretty extensive record. Not only did he make me f...eel how confident he was in my case but he made me feel like i actually had a chance and proceeded to show me the evidence and actually explain everything to me so i understood exactly where we stood. I did hire him. And through the time we worked together derek was very hands on and very professional. He treated me with so much respect and also my family. After about 7 months of fighting we finally won in every aspect of my case. From crimal to immigration and i was released from custody. I cannot thank this man enough. Because he literally saved me from going back to a country i know very little about with bo connection to. He also took me serious when others have not due to my past. And to this day i keep contact with him he continues to push me to better myself now getting back to society. This man gave me hope through my process and gave me a second chance at life and brought me back to my family here in america. I would 100% recommend him to anyone dealing with these things. If you want results derek decosmo is who you need.

I hired Derek to assist me with the naturalization process which resulted in me being granted US Citizenship due to his extensive experience in immigration law and his willingness to put in the work to do the necessary legal research. He and his office staff always treated me with kindness and respec...t. I felt very well prepared. Most importantly, he did not create false expectations, but rather gave me a clear idea of the possible outcomes of my situation.

Although this firm specializes in immigration matters, I knew they handled criminal matters as well. I reached out and was able to get an appointment the same day I called. I sat with Derek, who reviewed my paperwork and discussed my options. He took the time to explain every detail of my case, answe...red all of my questions, and went over what his plan of action would be. As soon as I retained him, him and his office immediately began working on my case. Since this wasn't a simple municipal court matter, I felt worlds better having him at my side at my next court appearance in Superior Court. My case was resolved quickly and I am happy to have had Derek by my side every step of the way. Hire these guys!!!!!

Derek DeCosmo About 15 months ago, immigration officers arrested one of our parishioners in his home in the early hours of the morning. His wife and four children were witnesses to this arrest and came to the parish for help. I referred them to Derek DeCosmo who had helped us on many prior occasions.... Our parishioner had been taken immediately to the Detention Center in Newark, NJ. Derek went there to meet him. He negotiated his release from custody, got him an employment authorization document, and license. In time, Derek was able to take our parishioner to Pennsylvania to have a prior criminal case dismissed. Throughout this entire process, Derek was available to the family and to our church community as we worked and prayed together for a just resolution for this family. All of my experience with Derek has been very positive. He treats each person with respect and puts all his resources into serving them well.
