Marriage Green Card

We had the pleasure of working with Peter for our immigration case, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the service I received. From the beginning, he demonstrated a high level of professionalism and expertise. Peter was always available to answer my questions and kept me informed every step of th...e way. His knowledge of immigration law was impressive, and it was clear that he had a strong grasp of the complexities involved in my case. Thanks to Peter, our case was handled smoothly and efficiently, leading to a successful outcome within 3 month. I felt supported and confident throughout the process, and I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of an immigration lawyer. Thank you, Peter, for your outstanding service!

Successful immigration case

I had a positive experience working with Peter and his team to get my green card through the PERM process. Although the complete process took longer than anticipated, Peter and Joyce were easy to reach and would be available to answer any questions I had. They are very knowledgeable, I would certainl...y recommend working with them.

I got my O-1 visa approved within a week

I was recommended to Peter’s law firm by my best friend, who had her H1B paperworks prepared by Peter and his associate, Erin, and got her H1B approved the same year. I was working as a freelancer and my line of work mostly stays within the creative department so O-1 visa was a more appropriate optio...n for me. Before going to Peter’s, I reached out to 4 different law firms that are well-known for their high successful rate of O-1 visa obtainment and was rejected by all 4 of them. Keep in mind that O-1 is one of the most difficult visa categories to obtain, unless you’re famous actors/singers/artists that have multiple winning awards and publications. Peter gave me a step-by-step instruction to meet all the requirements for the O-1, which includes all the mitigations of staying within status to make sure my application get approved safe and sound without any scrutinies. It took me a whole year to gather all necessary documents. They sent out my application on the 7th of December and I got the notice of approval on Dec 15th, a week from the sending date. I’m very grateful for Peter and Erin’s helps during this whole process. They were very attentive to any issues that I had concerns about and made it less painful for me. I would 100% recommend their law firm for anyone who’s looking to obtain their work visa.

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.
