Highly Recommended Lawyer

Hello, When I contacted Mr. Calev I was impressed on how he presented himself on the phone. What I was being charged with was so severe I knew was in trouble. Hiring Mr. Calev as an attorney was the best decision I made. He kept reassuring me that everything is going to be all right. He helped me f...ight my case for 7 months. The end result was that he got my case dismissed.

Mr. Calev was responsive and available to talk to me about my case. In short, he did what he said he would do. Case resolved in my favor. I would definitely recommend Mr. Calev to anyone needing an attorney.

Outstanding service with excellent results

I was facing a felony charge in February, 2016 which could have resulted in multiple years in prison. My aunt recommended Mr. Calev who fought hard for me to get a reduced sentenced and be released from jail. I don't have enough words to describe how amazing the experience was with Mr. Calev. It was ...such a relief to know there was someone looking out for my best interest. I highly recommend him to anyone fighting any type of criminal charge. Also, he is very good in advocating for his clients.

Expert advice for problematic visa application

I consulted Mr. Calev about a difficult situation that arose during my application for a special visa for Brazil. Mr. Calev responded rapidly and provided expert advice, explaining the law and giving the basis for his reasoning. Indeed, Mr. Calev's analysis and recommendations were right on the mark ...and all worked out well. Mr. Calev was outstanding, and based on this experience, I recommend him very highly.

Thorough, affordable, and professional!

Mr. Calev was an excellent lawyer, who handled my wife's immigration package with speed and expertise! I thought I could submit the forms without a lawyer, but I am so glad that I didn't. He really knew the ins and outs of the process, providing expert advice and information that the USCIS website ...doesn't share. I know the process would have been a nightmare with out Mr. Calev. He always kept me involved in the process and was very personable. Rest assured that Benjamin USAC Calev is the right man for the job and will get results.
