My best Lawyer

I knew Alexander almost 6 years ago I came to his office for help in the case of deportation. My previous Lawyer dissapiared with the final resolution of Federal Court for my deportation. So, Alex did tremendous job during the period of 6 years. I can say that sometimes I had no idea what to do, b...ut with Alex and his Office (I have to say thank you to them too) I overcomed my Immigration problems, and would like to cooperate with Alex and his office in the nearest future too. He is professional, trustful, tactful and intelligent Lawyer. I am proud of to have such Lawyer.

Best decision ever made

My husband’s immigration case was handled poorly by his previous lawyer and was denied. We wanted to switch lawyers. However the task proved very difficult. Most lawyers that we consulted with spoke more about the money and payments rather than the immigration problem at hand. And some didn’t even wa...nt to take the case. Finally, we consulted with Alexander J. Segal. After the consultation my husband and I both agreed, this man knew what to do. Mr.Segal told us the reality of the situation, he never gave us false hope or any sugar coated promises. Mr.Segal was very forward about the case but at the same time, gave me and my husband hope. Which all the other lawyers failed to do. I found Mr. Segal to be very approachable. He is an extremely genial and compassionate person. Unlike other lawyers, who barely answer any questions or concerns, Mr. Segal will sit down with you and answer all your questions even if it means repeating himself over and over until you understand. He genuinely cares about his clients and wants them to know what is going on with their case. Mr.Segal is a very easy person to talk to and will make anyone feel comfortable. He will talk to you as if you are an old buddy. He will say things to lighten the situation and brighten up your mood. My husband was deported and it was a very difficult time for me. I never had to deal with immigration and knew very little about it. My husband was the one taking care of the case. But with him gone, I was at a loss. Mr.Segal was my guidance. He helped me understand what was going on and told me exactly what I had to do if I wanted my husband back in the U.S. It was tiresome having to work, going to school, taking care of things and running around with the entire immigration problem. Many times I couldn’t go to Mr. Segal’s office due to my busy schedule. However, whenever I used to email him he always responded. If he was unavailable, someone else from the office emailed back a response with the necessary information. I never had any trouble contacting Mr.Segal via phone, skype, email, or in person at his office. He makes himself available for all his clients at all times. He never made me feel as if I was a bother or that i was pestering him. He would always walk me through the problem and explain everything down to the very smallest detail. I went overseas for three months to see my husband. During this time period Mr.Segal and his staff continuously notified me if there were any changes or updates in the case. I never had to hunt him down for information or updates. That's one of the things I appreciate the most, the updates and information was given to you readily. Mr.Segal is highly experienced and knows exactly how things will be. He is very informative and guided me through every step on what to do about the case. The time frame I was told in which the case will be solved was very much accurate. I am very happy with my decision to work with Mr. Segal for my husband’s immigration case. And I am beyond grateful for his guidance and hard work. Now my husband's case is approved and he is back in the United States.

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!

A lawyer,who i can refer to my friends

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. Reasonable p...rices,good communication.his is very pushy in the court room.stuff ,who works in his office ,is good,communicative,listens to client.

Awesome Attroney

My husband and I retain mr.segal on Jan 31 2012, for adjustment of status. I was the one being adjusted and my husband was petitioning for me. I surf the web and obtained the numbers for at least 20 immigration lawyers, I was going through the list that I aquired and found that mr.sergal's office was... most favorable to me, the secretary was detail and very explicit, clear and percise which led me to believe that she knew exactly what she was about, so I set up an interview where my husband and I can meet with the attorney. after a brief and detailed meet my husband and i retained mr.segals' office for council, and i must say i mr.segal is awesome, their is no other way to put it. he prepared me, for my interview and assisted me even when i felt discourage. I must say this to my fellow immigrants, going through this immigration process is not a joke, its serious business, they were many times when i felt unsure and down, but my legal team, mr.segal always made me feel like their was hope. I got married 23rd sept 2011 , retained mr.segal on 31 jan 2012 and i received my card on 24 may 2012. I am writing this review, with tears in my eyes, because i am filled with joy. i just want to thank God and also mr.segal for helping me to regain my freedom.
