Fabulous

Gary Healy and his staff were absolutely amazing with us from start to finish. Always prompt, efficient, honest, fair and reasonably priced. His assistant Martha, was also very prompt in responding and worked diligently on our case. Fully recommend Gary and his staff for all your immigration needs....

Thorough, timely, and very detailed oriented

We have retained Mr. Healy's service on a variety of immigration matters over the last three years, such temporary work visas, permanent residency applications, I-9, and citizenship and naturalization applications. His work has been very thorough and timely. He has always been responsive and detail... orientated. We have been so impressed with his services, that we have retained Mr. Healy on an annual retainer for our company.

Gary Healy - Immigration Attorney

Gary has guided me through the legal minefield of immigration law on a number of occasions, helping me secure a H1B visa in the past and presently preparing my greencard application. He has a personable demeanor and is extremely understanding of the stress of clients during the visa application proc...ess. He helps clients understand all available options and explains these options in a concise and understandable manner. Unlike other attorneys in the field, he is always available to take a call or answer an email and I have no reservations in recommending him to friends and colleagues seeking immigration advice.

Very satisfied

Mr. Healy is very professional yet very personable. I was delighted to have him file my greencard application for me. I had complete faith in his abilities and was impressed with his creativity and confidence in my case. Other attorneys had been less confident and felt they could not overcome ce...rtain difficulties. They also indicated I was only eligible for an EB3. Mr. Healy managed to get my EB2 application approved in 7 weeks without any difficulty because of his talent and dedication as an attorney.I am hugely grateful. Thank you so much- Amazing work.
