A+++ feedback

I had one of the most complicated cases (as for me) in the history of Immigration. Had filed case in CA where was turned down and sent to court, then changed venue to MA, while venues were in the process of changing, received a notice to appear in front of Judge in CA. Failed to appear...received a d...eportation notice by CA Judge being in MA. Time passed by (about 1 year) I started to worry about my status and situation with the paperwork. Hired an attorney ZK in Boston--he failed my case again. I had situation where I failed twice!!!! I started to do all the paperwork myself---of course failed again!!! Time went by and I was taken into custody by ICE officers for being illegal in US. That's when Alexander J Segal comes in as my attorney. He was very communicative and reliable while I was in Jail for 6 months... Finally we got my case reopened and I was out of the "can". And battle began... We were granted a green card, then he guided me thru the divorce with my wife, then thru removing of conditions on my GC... Now I am planning todo my naturalization paperwork!!!! He was very professional, responsive, intelligent in the court room. Every time I called him he PERSONALLY was guiding me through my questions with his answers. Never hung up on me while I was on HOLD. He is one of the kind, he knows what is he doing, he treated me with RESPECT and this is probably the best quality that every lawyer should have... And he is got it!!! What else I can say...other than he saved my case, saved my life, teached me a lot of things, showed me a bright future in US... this list can go on and on... I would recommend this lawyer without a blink of an eye.

An Amazing Lawyer

My husband was arrested and deported from U.S. April 2011. From that moment on, our entire lives turned upside down. My husband was in the country for 12 years and he had a voluntary deportation since 2001 which he did not obey.This is a scary and a long story, believe me. A week after the arrest, I ...went to Alexander J. Segal, an Immigration Lawyer whose office is located in New York City. He dealt with our case very carefully and wisely because it was a very complicated case. He got an approval for form I-130, which we've been waiting for 7 years, without an interview. He successfully prepared my husband for an interview with the American Consulate in Georgia and he successfully prepared and filed two waivers to Moscow to remove his deportation and let him back into U.S. All of this took exactly 15 months and now our family has been reunited and my husband just received a permanent Green Card. Of all the lawyers we've been to, Alexander J. Segal has been the only one who promised and successfully kept his promise of bringing back my husband. My husband says " Alex, you gave me a second chance to live and my entire family is grateful for this". We highly recommend Alexander J. Segal to anyone who has given up hope!

An expert in his area, an extremely charismatic attorney

I had a very complex deportation case; consulted several attorneys in New York and California. Mr. Segal was the only one who did not sugarcoat and did not lull me into a false sense of security. He was the one who explained the complications I was facing, yet I felt so secure with Mr. Segal and his... team. The process was long and painful, lasted approximately 4 years ( sometimes painfully long, especially if you terribly miss your parents, or even worse, unable to say the last goodbye to the people you love) . Finally, on April 28th, I entered the courtroom, calm and confident. It was because of my attorney's knowledge and charisma, and his excellent team that I can proudly say I am a Legal Permanent Resident of the United States!

immigration attorney, as knowledgeable as Alex Segal,is really hard to find.From the beginning,when he took over my case from another immigration attorney,Segal actually put everything in right order,what and when was supposed to be done.I was under deportation order when I hired him.
