Successful US Immigration with Expert Legal Assistance

An experienced lawyer, Nicolas Mabale Caraquel, greatly enhanced the success of my US immigration journey by providing expert guidance and support throughout the process. They assisted me in preparing, organizing, and filing accurate applications as well as in navigating immigration laws. They minim...ized the delays and increased the likelihood of a positive outcome for my immigration case. I highly recommend their services to anyone seeking reliable and effective legal support as well as those pursuing their American dream.

Compassion/ efficiency/ knowledge

I thank Nicolas and the his entire team for the tremendous support they showed me en my husband during his immigration. Our case got completed by Nov 2019 but then Covid happened en delayed everything. But the team has been there for both emotional and psychological support. The team is well equippe...d with all upto date information and knowledgeable in every step. Timely and effective respond to our multiple questions. We felt the love from NY to ND to Kenya. Thank you once again.

Atty. Nic wipes my nightly tears and stress

Like mine, the immigrant’s journey begins with constant stress and nightly tears but ends with Attorney Nic. I was raised to grow rice in the Philippines but found my passport to the United States through teaching. I met the love of my life, an American, but our time together was far from certain. ... My J-1 visa was expiring and USCIS was likely to force me back to poverty for a two-year waiting period. Fortunately, I was caring for a paraplegic and Nic explained that a two-year waiting period would cause undue hardship to an American citizen. So Nic successfully won me a work permit and exemption from the waiting period. Now I fully expect to celebrate citizenship someday.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Attorney Nick is passionate about our job which is primarily to help immigrants with their immigration concerns. He has a soft spot for them owing maybe to our being immigrants ourselves. Diligent and always on top of things in the immigration field, he is a lawyer whom clients can count on. For such, this colleague deserves my recommendation."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
