Immigration lawyer

Not responsive at all just ignores my messages regarding my immigration issue. It’s been 2 years since the application and still didn’t receive my greencard and he doesn’t respond to you questions after paying all that money

Greencard in less than a year. Excellent Job!

Searching for a trustworthy lawyer is painstaking because who would want to waste their money on an unreliable lawyer with no credibility? Hiring Dr. Calev was the best decision I made concerning my immigration issues. He and his assistant Pepe were very professional and easy to work with. They were ...very proactive in preparing me for everything--they would call me for updates even before I could call them. They treated me like I was their most important client, for a fee that's more than reasonable. They were very knowledgeable and helpful. I got my greencard before the anniversary of my filing. I'm happy that my friend recommended Pepe to me, and I'd more than glad to recommend them to others.

Would highly recommend Benjamin Calev

Benjamin was great about keeping me informed with every aspect of my immigration case. Made me feel welcome from the first minute I walked into his office. His great interpersonal skills and knowledge made it a pleasant experience to have him as my attorney.

Benjamin has made what seems impossible possible with my case. He is the only lawyer that was able to resolved my complicated case where others failed or didn't have a clue as to how to solve my case. I was very impressed with his knowledge of the law and his kindness and accurate preparedness of the... necessary paperwork to get the information submitted to immigration. I'll definitely recommend him to anyone. Thank you Benjamin. You have changed my life for the better. I'll never forget what you have done for me.

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.
