Congratulate

This is the best lawyer I’ve ever worked with. He’s available for his clients, stand with you until the end of your case and make sure everything’s done right and properly.

Terrible

Poor communication. He showed up to my TRIAL unprepared. It was an embarrassment.

MTR and family court.

In August of last year I retained the services of attorney Ugo Ugeh to reopen my immigration case, it was a very complicated case as it was a deportation from many years ago, and also with my case in family court. In less than a year he was able to reopen my immigration case and also this past Monday... he was able to win my guardianship in family court. I now feel safer in this country. I am very happy with his effort and dedication, and also with his staff because they are very friendly. 100% recommended.

Fraudulent lawyer

He is extremely terrible and wicked. I hired him to file i130 for me, he lied that he had submitted my application but 6months later, I found out he did not file anything, this came up after I asked for a receipt of his filing. He refused to give me my money back that I had to sue him to refund me my... money. We are still in court . DO NOT HIRE HIM!!! He is a fraud

Be aware this guy is a scammer

I retained Mr Ugo a year ago to help me file immigration docs. A year later I learned through USCIS that he has not followed up with proper filing. Sadly Mr Ugo lacks the professionalism to follow up with the services he offers. Now a year later I had to hire another group of lawyers so they can fin...ish the job this guy " forgot" to do. He barely answer his phone or email. Be aware.

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.
