An EXCEPTIONAL attorney I cannot recommend enough!

Having previously worked on several immigration petitions with a large, prestigious law firm, in my new company I was introduced to Ivan to take the lead on an Extraordinary Ability EB-1 Green Card application. From the very first consultation, the difference I felt was immediate. He took the time to... explain in detail each step of the process (I never felt rushed or embarrassed for not understanding all the ins and outs of immigration law!) and he invested time to thoroughly understand my professional experience and the basis of the application, to help him craft the most compelling petition. Ivan's work was first-rate, expertly using each piece of supporting evidence to tell my story, being incredibly strategic and creative in how he built the case. The result was a petition which was extremely strong and prepared to the highest level. When we received an RFE, he calmed my panic and went into action mode, and with his creative thinking helped me to uncover further evidence that we could submit (and probing me to look into areas I had never even considered). Ivan built another powerful and comprehensive case, and just a couple of days after submitting the petition was finally approved to my tremendous relief. Ivan's personal investment in my case - his attention to detail, thorough research, countless hours dedicated to the petition, and unrelenting focus on its approval - is exactly what one would want from their immigration attorney. You really feel like you are his only client - he is incredibly responsive and proactive, and you never feel uncertain of the next steps or where you are in the process. I am so thankful to have placed this important responsibility in Ivan's capable hands, and I sincerely cannot recommend him enough.
