Wonderful attorney to work with.

Mr. Markovitch is a wonderful attorney to work with. He took the time to answer my questions, and helped me through my process. I also appreciate how efficiently he responded to my email. Look forward to working with him again in the future.

Amazing Immigration Lawyer that actually cares!

Michael H. Markovitch is an amazing attorney! He was extremely knowledgeable and helpful! His skills and suggestions led to the approval of my case. I would fully recommend his services to anyone that wants a great attorney that actually cares and knows the ins and outs of immigration law. Michael wa...s always available for any of my questions and very responsive, even while he was abroad. Best immigration lawyer in NYC by far!

Naturalization case

Michael was extremly helpful in my naturalization process. I came to him extremely nervous as my previous attempt was denied. He knows immigration law extremly well and will always provide you with very honest and helpful feedback. He never over sells or makes fake promises. I will forever be thankfu...l to Michael and his professionalism and most importantly the fantastic result he provided. Thank you Michael!!! Ghita

Best immigration attorney in NYC!

We chose Michael as our attorney after we consulted over 10 lawyers in NYC. Our H1B case is very complicated, nearly none of the lawyers we went to have done similar cases before and there are a lot of difficulties during the preparation. We have prepared for the worst situation, but Michael got the ...visa done successfully even without RFE. The result is absolutely beyond our expectations, and we would recommend him for any immigration cases.
