Great Experience!

I would highly recommend Mr. Michael Cataliotti for the purposes of the O visa. He ensured that he extended his full support and advice from the day I contacted him over the phone till the day I got my visa. There were a few setbacks in my process mainly because my employer had questions. They were n...ot supportive, and were unsure of the whole process. Despite all of this, Michael still fought the case with persistence and didn’t hold back when it came to him being proactive about helping me with all my paperwork. He is flexible with meetings and phone calls which makes it great to work with him. The visa process can be pretty challenging because a lot is at stake, my priority in finding a lawyer was to make sure that the lawyer took personal interest in his/her clients and treated the case as if it were his/her own , Michael lived up to that expectation!

Amazing experience working with Michael

It was a great experience working with Michael. Visa applications can be extremely stressful but Michael worked with me every step of the way to make things easy. During the initial consultation, Michael clearly explained what to expect during the application process and what paperwork was required. ...He was very meticulous, and was always available to answer any questions or concerns. The entire process was very seamless and the fee structure is transparent.

Outstanding attorney

I hired Michael as outside counsel to handle immigration work for our company's employees wanting to relocate from Europe to the U.S. as well as general corporate advisory services. Michael is an extremely knowledgeable and diligent attorney who will make himself available to a client at all hou...rs. His quick thinking and deep knowledge of employment based immigration law helped us decide the best course of action, and execute our strategy. I highly recommend Michael!!

Excellent Service. Made the application process super simple!

I had been waiting to apply for an O1 for several months. Simply because every immigration attorney I talked to pretty much wanted me to do almost all of the work -- collect proof for the petition and write material content for recommendations. All of this would've taken me several weeks and simply d...id not have that kind of time. What appealed to me most about working with Michael, who came highly recommended from a couple of dear friends, was that he spent a lot of time learning about me and my work online. He was able to collect proofs needed for the petition himself and propose material content for recommendations. Each of my recommenders modified the content (obviously) but it was a great start and I was minimally involved. In the entire process I might have spent about 2 hrs, which is quite unbelievable low for filing an O1 petition. Other things that I really liked about working with Michael: -- he is extremely knowledgeable. he lectures at Columbia and to keep those set of students engaged, one better be at the top of their game! -- he is exceptionally approachable and responsive. Even after my petition was approved, he was super helpful in answering my gazillion questions about where to go for an interview, documents I need, how to answer certain questions, etc, etc. Lawyers generally charge by the hour. Michael cared more about building a relationship and did not bill me on 6 min increments, even though he had no obligation to answer my questions post petition approval. -- he did a great job at creating my application. My O1 was approved in 2 days. -- he is very friendly and pleasant to work with. I usually don't write reviews but I'm so grateful for the amazing service I received for something so important to me, I feel pressured to let everyone know that Michael's awesome and I'd highly recommend him.

Having Michael As My Lawyer Is The Best Decision I've Made

I highly recommend consulting with and definitely hiring Michael as your attorney. I was amazed by how responsive he has been the whole time for my case. Sometimes I sent him emails late night or on weekends and I didn't expect that he always responded right away. And if he missed your call, he will ...follow up actively. He always answers your questions and discusses your options with you, even though some questions are personal matters that indirectly related to your case. As a matter of the fact, even before I hired him, I asked him many other legal questions and he always responded. He's a very patient and warm-hearted lawyer and he's willing to help you out even though you are not his client. Another thing is that Michael's fees are pretty reasonable as I did a comparison before I decided to hire him. When he was working on my case, he always kept me updated with the process and he was in charge of most work. I've heard some bad things about other lawyers of my friends, as they even ask my friends to write materials themselves. Michael, however, always organized everything himself. I've asked him a lot about what I could do, but he almost took care of everything. Moreover, he is a lawyer that who always goes an extra mile to optimize your documents. He has a very avant-garde way of collecting information as he used algorithm and computer science. Michael found something about me that I had no idea about before. What can be more important than having an active lawyer with the omnipotent capabilities of collecting information?
