As an immigration attorney with years of experience, I offer my solid expertise in various aspects of immigration law. I possess extensive courtroom experience and in-depth knowledge of complex immigration proceedings: (Deportation/Removal Proceedings, Asylum, Adjustment and Waiver Hearings, etc.) from the initial application to the review by the United States Court of Appeals. Having successfully represented numerous clients before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second and Third Circuits and the Board of Immigration Appeals I have also achieved favorable results in filing family- and employment-based petitions as well as various non-immigrant visas.
I served as Lead Trial Attorney in the case of Miltiadous v. Tetervak, 686 F. Supp. 2D 544, 548 (E.D. Pa 2010), a landmark precedential decision, implementing the narrow exceptions or defenses contemplated by the Hague Convention on the International Child Abduction Remedies Act.
Prio to becoming a partner in Spektor Law Group, P.C. I worked as an associate at one of the larger more prominent immigration firms in New York. A firm known throughout New York City for enthusiastically taking on the cases that other lawyers turn down.

Brilliant
Zlata has been fantastic for my entire immigration process. From applying for residency up to applying for citizenship.

The sucess of my VIWA & I485 Case.
My name is Adrian D., I am writing the review because i need to share my success story. In my deepest time of pain and sorrow. I sort refuge at Spektor's Law Group. Ms. Zlata Berman, listened to my case in my medium of a welcoming consultation in which we discuss the pros and cons of my case. ...
"Zlata is knowledgeable and compassionate and always has her clients' best interests in mind. She is up-to-date on immigration issues and is passionate about her job and the community she serves."
"Ms. Berman is a highly capable attorney committed to providing clients experienced, knowledgeable and aggressive representation. I endorse her without reservation."
"Zlata is an extremely knowledgeable and diligent immigration attorney. Any client would be lucky to have Ms. Berman on her side. I strongly endorse Ms. Berman."
"Ms. Berman is a real whiz when it comes to immigration law, and her ability to quickly identify and resolve a client's legal issues is very impressive. I had the benefit of working alongside Ms. Berman on a daily basis for several years when we shared office space during the infancy of her practice. She has the unique ability to speak clearly and effectively with government officials, avoiding the pitfalls associated with the endless red-tape in immigration matters. If you are looking for a sharp, can-do immigration attorney I can't think of a better option than Zlata Berman."
"Ms. Berman is one of the most competent immigration lawyers I know. Our clients rely on her knowledge and expertise - even in situations when other lawyers cannot help, Ms. Berman is often able to suggest a strategy, which results in a successful outcome. Every immigrant deserves a lawyer like Ms. Berman - someone who is an expert in immigration law and also takes her clients' interests to heart. She had been a blessing to many immigrant families, who would not have been able to remain in the United States, were it not for Ms. Berman's earnest efforts."
"I've known Zlata professionally for almost 10 years. During that time, I've called her to consult on numerous matters, especially concerning immigration. I've also referred people to her. I have the utmost respect for her, and I know for a fact that her clients hold her in high regard."
"Ms. Berman is knowledgeable lawyer with strong grip in removal defense and cases involving criminal grounds of deportabiity. I had the honor and unqualified privilege to work with Ms. Berman on a number of cases in the recent past. I strongly recommend and endorse Ms. Berman."
"An attorney with comprehensive knowledge of immigration law and a tireless advocate for her clients."
"An extremely talented and well respected attorney in the legal community, I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a lawyer who knows the law and truly cares about protecting the rights of her clients and getting them the most favorable result possible."
