Oksana Sokolova

Oksana Sokolova is a true professional in her field, not only in legal matters but on a humanitarian level as well, showing compassion and patience. I am a client of Oksana Sokolova, Oksana represented me in a legal Real Estate matter abroad, she proved to be very knowledgeable and efficient, dem...onstrating professionalism and personal attention, foreseeing potential problems before they occurred, going above and beyond to break down every legal term in the lengthy and complicated contract so that we could understand. Oksana is a skilled negotiator who knew which changes to make for our benefit, at the end we came out winners! Forever grateful. ~ Thank You Oksana!

I found Oksana through a recommendation by the Russian consulate in New York. I’m limitlessly grateful for it. When I met Oksana my case was already closed due to negligence and incompetence of American attorneys, each blaming the prior one for their failures. I was misled, deceived, and defrau...ded by five attorneys in total. Oksana studied the case very thoroughly, getting into its finest details, and concluding that it wasn’t her specialty. However, she was willing to offer help, opinion, and guidance. The case was relatively straight forward. My husband is a very sick man suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. His children abused his condition and stole from him. Most attorneys I dealt with before would charge high fees, but I didn’t hear a strong legal position and didn't see results. My experience with Oksana was quite the opposite. She structured our thinking and framed our legal stance. This was the first time I felt confident that we had a solid winning position. Looking back on the prior attorney’s work, it all seemed vague, and questionable by comparison. She did what I was paying others to do. Oksana ended up guiding my attorneys in many ways. Importantly, she became a stakeholder in my case, she was present, and she would ask my attorneys the questions I wasn’t qualified to ask, which motivated them to do the work they were being paid to do. We ended up winning the case, to the surprise of my attorney. The court gave my husband’s children 45 days to prepare a report on how they spent the money after which there was a long silence from my attorneys. Oksana again stepped in stating that the silence is suspicious. She asked me to send her the most current papers and found out that, my attorneys were to submit documents to the court as per the court schedule, and the other side was to respond by the 11th of the month. Oksana called the attorney and found out that he never submitted the documents. The attorney admitted that he was at fault. Oksana again stepped in and fixed the situation, saving the case once again. Quite ironically, one attorney asked me to write a review as soon as I hired him. Literally, before he did any work. Oksana never did, and that’s why I’m writing it. She appeared in court as my trusted representative. According to even my attorney, she was very bold and presented the case in a way that the judge had no doubts as to the merits of our position. Oksana is a person you can trust with your case. Even if she is not handling it directly as an attorney, she can be your representative to ensure your attorneys are not defrauding you. She makes attorneys accountable. She asks them the right questions and stands your ground. We have to trust attorneys because we have no knowledge or competence or time to know whether they are doing the right thing, whether they are following your interests or those of their own (which I found to be the case more often than not). It’s just too tempting when the client has no clue. Attorneys can simply tell the client the case was too complex or their position was too weak, and the client would never know whether it was the weakness of the case or the attorney. The client doesn’t know how to stand up for themselves against their own attorney. The client can’t hold the attorney accountable. The client doesn’t know about bar associations and the attorney’s responsibilities. Oksana can play that role and keep your attorney in check, oversee your attorney’s work, offer a second opinion and prevent problems. Oksana has a beautiful mind and clear, structured thinking. In my case, she framed the legal argument in a way that was powerful, undeniable and would stand up to scrutiny.

I would like to say many thanks to Oksana. When I got negative answer from the embassy for b1/b2 application I just googled for an attorney helping in migration issues. To be honest the call was just desperate, I did not believe in success. The first call made me feel the chance. The second call made... me feel that I can get the visa. The third call (after the interview) was very emotional for me and i felt that administrative processing will be ok and what should we provide in order to get this process positive. The fourth call was about to say how grateful I am to this professional as I got a call from embassy to come and bring my passport for issuing the visa. Sure, there were not only these 4 calls. A lot of paperwork and discussions were made – carefully, in details, repeating every moment. And of course, what is also important this attorney made my heart hot with the feeling that the success on your side, and it will be. Probably, if you read this review, you may think that b1/b2 is an easy case, but believe me, mine was totally complicated.

Oksana is not only a good lawyer but also good person, and for me this means a lot. I asked Oksana to help me with different cases many times ( green card, different travel visas, citizenship of USA, to born a baby in USA) and every time I have answers for all my questions and situations. As a lawy...er she is responsible, knowledgeable and experienced, hardworking and respectful! She will make sure that your case will be 100% satisfied. I am really lucky that I met her in my life. Thank You Oksana so much! If you are looking for the BEST lawyer - Oksana Sokolova here to help You!
