LDR NO MORE!

We cannot say enough good things about the service we received from Nick Caraquel. He should be highly commended for his efficiency, expertise, and knowledge of the work he do. There are times where situations seemed so rough, but he helped smooth things out. He just kept on pushing us to believe tha...t our case can get approved though we are under the category of the SameSexMarriage. I even remember him telling us “I wouldn’t accept your case if I know it wouldn’t get approved.” (And he proved it!) His confidence brought an end to our long distance relationship at the time he promised. (Impressive!) He even promised to bring my visa before Christmas and he did!!! My interview went so well that the consul doesn’t even have any questions to ask me anymore since everything was well organized and prepared. His interview coaching was harder, actually. LOL. He just knows how to demonstrate extraordinary support to his clients, works hard to prepare his cases, and is willing to endure our stress just to give clients what they deserve. Thanks to you attorney and to the legal team that supports you or that you support for assisting us and for putting an end to our long distance relationship. You obviously have an amazing heart for bringing families together!!! Can't wait to see my love soon!!!

Best in the Business ( Totally Awesome Sauce)

Based on my experience with Nicolas Caraqual Law Offices, I can say without doubt that it is the best law office out there when it comes to immigration matters. My Fiance' contacted Nick after talking with a friend that had used his services to be with her fiance' in the United States . My Fiance' co...ntacted Nick over facebook for a free consultation. After a brief conversation and us explaining our situation Nick was more than willing to take on our case. A few days after our conversation, Nick had sent Me all the a contract and everything we needed to make the immigration process quick and painless. We Hired Nicolas in May and my Fiance and me will be together for Christmas.. Not only was Nick swift at handling our case but he was professional and caring throughout the process. He responded quickly to our instant messages and emails and the process gave me piece of mind. I highly recommend him to anyone who is in search of a highly qualified immigration lawyer. Don't just take my words for it. Give him a call.

Polite, Organized, affordable, the BEST

I was in Korea when Chris and I have finally decided to hire you as our lawyer to process our K1 visa application. At first, I was so worried to come back to the Philippines considering my illegal status in Korea but you have told me that everything will be okay. You promised me that you will bring ...me to USA before Christmas. And you did! Our visa is approved! You we’re so patience answering all our queries and you have prepared me so well in to my interview. Everything was hassle free. All we did was just to sign and send this and that. I didn’t imagine that this is gonna be easy as this. Your service fee is very reasonable. Thank you for helping us to be together again. We will see you in NYC. GODBLESS Atty Nicolas M. Caraquel.

Best Experience Ever

Hello there, This all just started last year. I know I could right a book about Nick but I know I have to be few with my words and that will be difficult. And just let me start off by saying I would highly recommend Nick to anyone not only as a lawyer who is extremely helpful in everyway and at the s...ame time very professional but someone who actually cares about your case as if it was himself going through the process. In the beginning I was very hesitant in hiring a lawyer and after many conversations with Nick and the one night he talk with me and my fiance as well as my fiance's mother that said it all for us and it was done. Nick was at our side step by step , paperwork was very organized , easy to follow and understand which made our process very speedy and really I was not expecting such a quick response and approval as we did for our petition. From there I felt our dream was becoming closer and closer and that of course is with the guidance of Nick. I do have to tell you I have never wanted so much in my life as I do now and that was for my fiance Amer to be with me here in America and really without Nick there to guide us and be with us on this journey and a new beginning in our lives I really do not feel it would have not been possible. Process and things always change on daily basis and the service that Nick Caraquel gave to us was most excellent, affordable, reasonable, helpful, understanding, presentable, and most of all he made us believe and that I have to say talks more then words can say. I , Rachell and Amer would absolutely highly recommend Nick Caraquel to anyone who is in need of not only a great and passionate lawyer but also a gift from GOD.. We thank you again and again Nick for making our dreams come true. We will see you soon face to face as Amer says. Sincerely take care and we wish you all the best.

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."
