My lawyer since 2007!

Peter has been my immigration lawyer since 2007. He handled my J1, H1B, and green card applications. All cases went smoothly and my green card application just got approved yesterday! Peter is very professional and the fees he charge are reasonable. It was easy to make a consultation appointment with... him. It cost me $50, but he told me all my legal options and their application processes once he learned my situation. He has Taiwanese people working for him and that's very helpful for me because I'm from Taiwan. They know exactly what kind of Taiwanese documents I need for each of my applications. I like his team too. Erin was the lady handing my green card case. She is knowledgeable and friendly. Peter and his team made my American dream come true. Thank you!

I finally picked the right lawyer for my immigration process

Peter is very professional and responsive, so are his staff. I have engaged him for various services in the past 3 years including H-1B transfer and employment based immigration. He and his staff worked well with the HR director of my employer, which made the process smooth and consistent despite per...sonnel change in his firm.

Nice and trusty attorney

I have known Peter since 2007. He always gives me the correct and honest information on maintaining my immigration status. That's why I retained him for my green card petition. After 2 year process, I could get the green card without any serious problem. He is really a trustworthy attorney.

I highly recommend Peter and his associates Laurie and Erin. They are all very professional, knowledgeable, and patient. They analyze the situations and provide valuable advice for my green card. You will be in good hand by using Peter's services!

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.
