Would recommend him to all my friends

As soon as I met Ricky, I knew he was trustworthy lawyer and had the absolute best interest of me! He is very professional and his office is very timely on taking care of business. He does not mislead you on something impossible, and yet is very experienced and confident on many different immigratio...ns scenarios. He is very quick about getting back to emails and returning phone calls. I absolutely got lucky to be referred to him and its only been super positive experience working with him. Since I have spoken to him, I found peace in my mind about my immigration issues and knew I was in good hands! Thank you Ricky for being so honest, knowledgable and professional and helping me out to make the whole process go so smoothly!

Immigration case

I would like to say a BIG thank you to Ricky and his team. It took me almost 8 years to become a permanent resident, and without Ricky's help I don't think it would be possible. I've had so many lawyers and all of them were very pessimistic about my case. After contacting Ricky's firm I finally felt ...hope, and here I am, holding my green card. If you feel that you're losing hope, call Ricky's office. Totally worth it.

Immigration with criminal record?

When we entered Ricky's office I was passed myself with worry that my son would be made to leave the country when his Green Card would run out (in about six weeks from that day). He has been arrested five times so I didn't even want to contemplate filling out the application. Ricky went over every...thing, told us upfront what he could do and how he would do everything. All of sudden I started to feel hopeful. I felt we had come to the right guy, he was knowledgeable, and calming. He covered every angle so we would have no shock or surprises. He told us the fee and what it covered, It was the first time I sat in front of a Lawyer and felt he was telling me the truth about everything. First of all he applied for a Green Card renewal and the also for the Citizenship just to make sure my son was never out of status. The renewal came though within weeks so that was good. The citizenship test came up and it was nerve wracking. You can't lie to those people so you have to go through each and every charge and the outcome. Ricky laid out everything for them, they did try to deny but the rebuttal from Ricky was outstanding, he knows his stuff. We waited months, they requested paperwork we had no way of supplying. Ricky did tell us of our options and what it would cost ( which was a lot) but he advised against spending the money to wait it out, we did and thankfully we did because a few weeks later my son got his letter to go for his Citizenship Ceremony. What we had thought impossible had become possible thanks to Ricky Palladino. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. When you leave his office you feel like you have a friend.

An honest, trustworthy and no nonsense immigration attorney.

I know Ricky for over 7 years now, he has been an excellent lawyer for my family when it comes to immigration matters. Ricky helped us with changes of status, H1B visas, F1 visa and removal defense. He is an honest, trustworthy and no nonsense attorney. Some of Ricky's qualities that stand out are h...is easy access and his willingness to provide advise when needed. In the past, I have recommended Ricky to family and friends for their immigration matters. Ricky did not disappoint, all the positive feedback and gratitude I received from them reinforces my willingness to keep recommending Ricky when it comes to resolving immigration issues.
