Michael Andre Gilbert

From the jaws of deportation to US Citizenship, all thanks due to Michael Gilbert of Zwaik, Gilbert and Associates. My journey has been long and difficult with many bleak moments in between. I came to the US in the 90s as a young teenager and made my share of mistakes while navigating through life in... US. When I met my US born wife, I already had two arrests on my record, making the task of obtaining a green card impossible. With the help of Mr. Gilbert, we made a plan and applied for my green card. I was nervous on the day of the interview and of course my application was rejected on the basis of my arrest record. Mr. Gilbert advised me to make a stronger connection with the community, volunteer, get involve with various charities to show that I have changed as a person. We reapplied and were once again denied and this time I was placed in removable proceedings to be deported back to Pakistan. Many sleepless nights were spent accepting the fact that it was a great possibility that I’ll be deported. Another meeting took place at Mr. Gilbert’s office and a new plan was created. Mr. Gilbert worked hard to create a strong case on behalf of me to present in front of the judge who was presiding over the removal proceedings. He argued on my behalf like a true champion, someone who deeply cared for his client and he made sure I was not going to be deported on his watch. The judge agreed with Mr. Gilbert and granted me the green card. The long hard battle fought had been won, however the journey was not complete. With the immigration policies rapidly changing it was time for me to apply for US Citizenship. Once again Mr. Gilbert was there to guide me. With all the hard work and efforts that were put in my file, this time things seemed a little easier, however in the back of my mind I was ready for another difficult interview. On the day of my interview, Mr. Gilbert went with me, calmed my nerves and once again spoke on my behalf to the agent interviewing me, Highlighting my strong points and guiding the interview process into a favorable one. A month and a half later I received my Oath letter and this past Tuesday the 23rd of January I became a US Citizen. I had dealt with other Immigration attorneys who did nothing for me; Mr. Gilbert was different. He was attentive, cared about me and was always available to answer my questions and concerns. If you are looking for an immigration attorney, Mr. Michael Gilbert should be your only choice.

Michael was recommended to me through a friend. He helped through my application for permanent residence. He made the process seem effortless. What I like Michael the most is that he's deeply passionate about his work, extremely ethical, and he truly believes in the meaning of this work. He successfu...lly helped me to convince the immigration officer to get the PR stamp the day I was interviewed because I told him that I would like to visit my father back in China soon. Michael didn't have to do this for me and didn't even have to tell me that was a possibility. So, he really has his clients interest in heart if the client has a legitimate case. I would definitely recommend Michael to other people.

I had the opportunity to be represented by Mr. Gilbert a few years ago. When I was in the process of deportation, Mr. Gilbert represented my mother and I and through my mother, I was able to apply for residency and get my green card. Throughout the process, I felt I was in good hands because he sh...owed professionalism and also explained everything as the process went. His staff are very welcoming and his office was closed to where I lived. I would highly recommend Mr. Gilbert for any immigration issues. My family and I will always be thankful for what he did.

I am writing again just because I know how it feels when you got immigration issue and you don't know how and where to find a lawyer who can SAVE and HELP you out with your immigration issue in real. There are so many lawyers who just need money and don’t care about clients. When you go to Mr. Mic...hael Andre Gilbert you will feel that it’s not about making money, it’s all about YOU and YOUR IMMIGRATION PROBLEM. If you are seeking help regarding your immigration issue, STOP wasting your time and money and meet with real lawyers. THEY WILL HELP YOU LIKE THEIR OWN FAMILY MEMBER. The reason I am recommending them is based on my own true experience. Since I have received my legal status (Asylee) back in February 15th 2013 and after that became a Permanent Resident of United States of America (Green Card Holder) same year on November 11th 2013 and my family (My wife and son) both not only joined me here in US but their Green Cards are also been approved and received. Secondly, I have directed my family members and friends towards Mr. Michael Andre Gilbert for immigration help, they ALL got success by getting their cases APPROVED. I have started doing Government job and looking forward to grow higher and higher with my hard work in future. THANKS TO MR. Mr. Michael Andre Gilbert, Mr. Mitchell C. Zwaik and their team.
