You're in good hands

When you hire him .... You're in good hands. Everything wilI be done professionally. I would like to describe Atty. Nick as quick, responsive, responsible and worth hiring. He is quick in the sense that I did not expect that his team will do the job in a span of less than a month. Now I'm on the la...st step of the process. The moment he laid down all the requirements I gathered the documents at once. Upon completion, he filed it, was approved on the second week and scheduled my interview. Everything I expected were met and ahead of time. His team gave responses and suggestions for the benefit of the client. My quiries were answered very satisfactorily and they worked amazingly. Thanks to Atty. and his efficient and effective staff.

Amazingly Reliable

I had a J1 visa and got married to a USC here in AZ, I have been following Atty Nick and his live updates and I knew right away he is the one that I would definitely trust to work with me in my AOS. We scheduled an appointment and met with Sir Nick through videocall and he told me that we need to wor...k right away with my AOS. My husband and I have our 100% trust on Atty Nick and his staff. Distance was never an issue since all his staff are all on deck with communication and making sure our papers are signed correctly and all the needed documents are submitted with accuracy. We did not get any RFE, did the process for just less than a year. Sir Addy prepped us for our interview and went above and beyond. We got approved on the spot. My husband and I are very grateful for iDream America. A very reliable team, definitely eased up the process and they gave us some peace of mind while we were on this journey. Thank you all so much! Til next time for my citizenship application Sir Nick… Salamat kaayo!!!

Heart of a Lawyer

I almost had forgotten the day I started my petition case with Atty. Nick Caraquel. My mind was filled with queries-queries that were too complicated, yet all directing to a single straight answer " I need my case to get approved!". Everything went fast with the help of Atty. Caraquel. He demonstrate...d a strong dedication to my H1b visa application, and he could handle complicated matters competently. His team was very willing to do what was necessary to ensure that the processing was done properly and in a timely fashion. I really appreciate their "extra" effort in the progress of my case. Not to forget our constant communication, just to make sure we were on the same page. I really got "good value" for their services. Voila! My petition was approved with ease. After a couple of days, I got my US visa appointment. A wave of nausea suddenly came over me. You bet... it's exhaustion! I was weak. Too weak to allow myself be carried away by the distractions and pressure. However, Atty. Nick Caraquel and his team, i.e. Sir Jay and Sir Andy, gave me fruitful coaching that lasted for two consecutive days. Their interview packet was of great help when I had my interview. The questions were on point. The tips were effective. Hence, my visa was approved. For sure, Atty. Nick and his team feel some sense of euphoria. I, for one, am glad not only because of having a break from visa frenzies, but also, it's a time to reflect on how much I learned in the whole application process. In a nutshell, Atty. Nick Caraquel has the heart of a LAWYER. May God bless your heart, Atty. Nick Caraquel and to the whole team! Mabuhay!

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."
