Couldnt have a better experience

After a few mishaps at Neil Weinrib Law office, Joshua took over my immigration case and I couldnt be happier. He was focused, organized and was able to think with us about our current situation. He was very responsive and answered all my questions timely and adequately. I was able to receive my gr...een card extension without needing an in person interview and with as little hassle as possible. I literally do not feel stressed when it comes to my immigrations issues purely because of Joshua. Thank you very much for all the assistance and guidance you provided. It is truly appreciated!

Excellent Experience!

Joshua was such a pleasure to work with. He was kind, patient, supportive, organized, and very knowledgeable. He answered my emails and phone calls promptly. Joshua had an answer for every question I asked. He made us feel like a priority, and never rushed us. I cannot recommend him enough. He is sim...ply amazing at what he does, and I highly recommend him. You will not be disappointed!

Fantastic! Highly Recommended.

Attorney Joshua was a pleasure to work with from the initial consultation until the day our case was approved. He was always very professional, honest and really cares about his clients, he also make you feel you can trust on him, he is reliable, transparent and was an extremely knowledgeable resour...ce on timelines, procedures, current immigration laws and what to expect from the process from start to finish. Joshua was efficient and timely in preparing the paperwork and forms for every stage of the application and was diligent and thorough in creating a comprehensive case file to ensure we were providing all information necessary for a successful interview of our case. We were in fantastic hands and would not hesitate to highly recommend working with him to anyone. Thanks so much, and keep up the great work, Joshua!
