Excellent Immigration Attorney

21 Dec 2011 Greg and his Paralegal Jackie helped me just obtained the L1 Work Visa petition successfully last week. I researched their information online. I found their company – Ancher & Greiner is one of the top 10 Law firms in New Jersey. Greg is one of the partners of the firm. I fee...l fortunate that I made the right choice of working with Greg. He is very dedicated to his role and fully accountable for his client. With his extensive knowledge about the L1 Work Visa and professional approach, we succeeded our petition as we anticipated. We will arrive in the State and start to set up our business by the end of Jan 2012. Jackie is extremely helpful and efficient. Since I was in New Zealand when we applied the petition, with such a long physical distance, I have been highly depended on them during the process. Jackie has been always responsive and thoughtful. I appreciate very much her direct and clear communication and thorough delivery of promise. Thank you very much again for your professional help. I really enjoyed working with you. I will be confident to recommend Greg and Jackie to my friends in terms of Immigration arrangement.

  • 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.
