Excellent Immigration Attorney

I’m very grateful to Natalya Gavlin and her team for their excellent work on my asylum case. They helped with the mandamus, prepared all documents, and guided me through the entire process. Special thanks to Kirill, who stayed in touch with me throughout and always made sure everything was clear and... organized. Thanks to their professionalism, my case was approved. Highly recommend.

Succesful Mandamus Process

We want to thank Natalia and her incredible team ( Valeriya, Ronald, Kirill) to help us through our immigration process! The entire team has shown an exceptional commitment from the first call till the final decision. The preparation of the case and all the supporting documents were remarkable. The ...team paid attention to every little detail, date, concern! Natalia was always available to answer any question as well. But the most important part for us was also the positive energy and vibe Natalia and everyone on the team has. We not only felt taken care of but also had the most optimistic and confident state of mind! When you laugh and smile through the process instead of being scared and drawn. This is an absolute rare thing in New York attorney offices. We wouldn't thank enough everyone who has been with us every single day on the phone, in person and behind our self-reliant! If you are not sure about Mandamus, how to move your case forward, anything just reach out to Natalia and her team. This was the best decision we ever made, especially after changing three attorney offices. Thank you guys! Will be our forever "Go to" recommendation!

Суд прошёл успешно благодаря Nataliya Gavlin»

Хочу выразить огромную благодарность чудесному адвокату Nataliya Gavlin за её профессионализм, внимательность и поддержку! Благодаря вашей работе мой суд был назначен очень быстро, и я безумно рад, что именно вы взялись за моё дело. Вы подходите к каждому клиенту с заботой и вниманием, и я искренне ц...еню всё, что вы сделали для меня. Хочу отдельно отметить Кирилла — мою «сладкую булочку». Он сразу включился, быстро решал все мои вопросы и всегда подсказывал, что делать. Даже когда я путался или задавал странные вопросы, он помогал и поддерживал меня. Огромное спасибо тебе, Кирилл — ты лучший! Желаю вашей команде процветания, ещё больше позитивных побед и возможности помогать большему числу людей, которые нуждаются в вашей поддержке. Ещё раз огромное спасибо, Nataliya, за вашу чудесную работу, высокий профессионализм и заботу. Благодаря вам я почувствовал уверенность и поддержку, и я искренне благодарен за всё, что вы сделали для меня!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
