The best Immigration lawyer you can have in PA/NJ area

I had a very complicated Citizenship case with some old criminal records. I contacted a lawyer from NY with an understanding they must be better than Philly lawyers. I was wrong he messed up my case as a result I contacted the Local lawyer Mr. Adam. During the first interview he didn't tell me anythi...ng I didn't knew. Because my application was already prepared and submitted by another attorney and nothing much left to do. But Bingo! He catches a big mistake done by the other lawyer in application which I later found was the game changing discovery. I started following his advice and I was yet to see his final magic. It was at the interview. He discussed and explained my case to the immigration officer in a very professional manner, at the end of the interview the immigration officer himself was pleased to give Mr. Adam thanks for making his job easier by explaining every details whenever it needed to. He is a very honest person and charge reasonable. In-fact i paid him more than actually what he asked me for just because of his excellent service. Don't believe me, Try him. You will find it by yourself. And yes, he won my case.

Good results need the right person. Adam is here to make your dream come true.

I highly recommend Adam Solow. He is a very knowledgeable , savvy and very professional . Adam is very human he try to listen to his client situation carefully so he can make the whole entire process stress free. First just believe in him . he is a master on what he does and follow his advice . I dea...lt with him for Little over 2 years right now.I have never had issue getting in touch with him for any concerns or question . he is always there to answer or qualify any matter at his earliest convenience .Adam helped me and my husband to wake up from the nightmare we were living at. We hired Adam to help my husband for his AOS and we were able to get our GC . Just to mention we had worked with a previous attorney who sucked our blood and we end up getting the case denied not only that because of the previous attorney's negligence my case got so complicated . then we consult with Adam , honestly after our first conversation he seems that he had the energy to fight for my case to end . he loves and enjoy what he does. He was able to solve a problem that last 13 years and get out of the dark by using all the legal procedures . We sign a contract that explain what is he going to do and how much you will pay and that was it. His prices are very reasonable comparing to others . High caliber attorney very professional knowledgeable and human. I can't stop thanking him and prying for him everyday. highly recommended.

Adam is a wonderful Immigration Attorney

I had a complex case I wanted to get citizenship with a past felony from when I was young. I was told by another good immigration attorney I would not qualify for citizenship for many year if ever. We found Adam online and based on his reviews decided to check with him as well. Adam looked into the ...case and to my surprise said that in his opinion I would actually qualify being that my felony was not violent and many years had passed. Well it took 14 month but now I am finally an American Citizen! Adam was right about the law and has been very good through the whole application process. He kept me updated on everything that was going on. Was always available by phone or email when I had questions. Adam knew the options available to me and made appropriate recommendations. Adam knows the process of immigration law in and out. He is a lawyer who deeply cares about his clients. I would not hesitate to recommend Adam to a friend or family member.

Highly recommended

I highly recommend Mr. Solow and his team! He recently assisted my husband and I with an application for permanent residence which was successful. He is professional, personable and extremely knowledgeable. He was genuinely invested in our case and our lives. He made a very complicated process seem ...easy and low stress. He was in frequent contact regarding our progress and upcoming events so that we always felt informed and prepared. We could not have asked for a better experience. If you are looking for an immigration lawyer look no further!

Virtuoso!

We discovered Mr. Solow through the Avvo website. We feel blessed and fortunate that we decided to procure his services to advise and guide us through our immigration ordeal. He was a virtuoso, expertly escorting us through the countless obstacles inherent in this process. We would characterize hi...s services and those of his firm as extremely professional, knowledgeable, communicative and reliable. He was honest, straight forward and a pleasure to work with, an excellent attorney with a command of his craft.

I cannot think of an attorney who is more capable of rapidly assessing facts in a case, proposing a solution and doggedly pursuing his client's interests and immigration goals than Adam. On top of his unparalleled legal acumen are his morals, ethics, and compassion, all of which are of the highest degree. Adam is someone I would trust with my own legal problems without a second thought and someone to whom I would entrust the legal matters of my own family members."
