highly recommended

I highly recommend Atty Nick's immigration law office. They've been very timely with processing the papers. They handle everything from start to finish including securing your social security and green card. They will guide you through every step of the process.

Immigration of our sons

Performed perfectly. From start to finish Nick handled everything. All paperwork was prepared and delivered in a timely fashion. The immigration process was problem free, easy and speedy. I would recommend him 100%.

Mr. Caraquel is very good.

My brother in law informed me about Mr. Caraquel and I contacted him through facebook. He was very professional and told me exactly what to do and how to do it. Mr. Caraquel organizes all documents for you and is on time. The only thing is doing your part by providing him with the necessary paperwor...k and communicate with any problems you may have. For example I was having a hard time getting income history from my job because they have a system that was confusing for me but Mr. Caraquel took care of it. Mr. Caraquel is very polite and professional and handles all legal matters in a timely manner. I would highly recommend his services.

Excellent, personalized service

I hired Atty. Nick Caraquel for my EB2-National Interest Waiver application and he did a great job and excellent service. From the start, he laid out our strategy on how to get the petition ready. Early on, he sent out instructions detailing the things I needed to prepare in order for him to properl...y write the petition. Atty. Nick was very approachable during this process and generous with his time and resources whenever I need help. He will answer my calls and be available at our appointed consultation times. He drafted and edited all the recommendation letters that were sent out to different professors, making sure that the importance of my work and achievements were highlighted in these letters. Atty. Nick meticulously wrote a very strong petition for my case, making sure that the importance of my research was in the national interest of the US by providing proofs through government documents and/or scientific publications. He made sure that we cover all our bases and submit a very strong case with proper proofs and documentation. As a result, we did not get an RFE after the initial review and my case was approved. I am now awaiting for my green card to be delivered. During the entire process, Atty. Nick was always available to talk with and discuss the case. After we submitted the petition, he would constantly update me and answer my questions about the case. Even when I changed jobs while the petition was pending, Atty. Nick was quick to offer his legal advise on what I should do and how to deal with the legal requirements. I truly am satisfied with how the entire process went and Atty. Nick made sure that we have plans for any eventuality. However, he was very confident that our case was strong and that we covered everything in the petition and in the end, it was approved. I highly recommend Atty. Nick Caraquel, for all your immigration needs. He has a proven track record of good performance and personalized service. Thank you!

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."
