The BEST attorney! Amazing experience!

I'm a musician and Michael was my attorney who got involved with the whole process of getting my O1 visa. The whole procedure run smoothly from the beginning till the end. Michael was very helpful with all and with whatever question I had he was there to help and respond back immediately. I would def...initely recommend him to everyone and he will be my attorney for my next visa!

Business visa for professional athlete

I am a Russian professional athlete. I was offered a job at a sports club in the United States in the summer of 2016. My first conversation with Mr. Cataliotti was in August 2016 and it took 5 months for me to receive my visa. This was the perfect amount of time for me to attend the world champions...hip in February 2017 in California. First he analyzed my resume and suggested the type of visa I should applied for. We started to work on it right away. I felt no stress working with Mr. Cataliotti because he knew exactly what forms unneeded to fill out and his instructions were always clear and on time. He knows exactly what documents were needed for me to get my specific type of visa and how long it takes to get them and process them. Any questions I asked were answered clearly and right away. You can feel his caring and professionalism through the whole process. I am deeply grateful to Mr. Cataliotti. It has been an absolute pleasure to work with him.

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!!
