An Extremely Competent Immigration Lawyer and Genuinely Nice Guy

I myself am a licensed attorney in the US, but I studied here as a foreign national, on a student visa. When the time came for me to pursue a family based application for permanent residency, I started looking around for a competent immigration lawyer to advise me on some of the more complicated asp...ects of immigration law. After some unsatisfying encounters with a few other lawyers, I was very fortunate to land upon Ricky Palladino. As a lawyer myself, I was extremely impressed by the way Ricky does things. He is extremely knowledgable about immigration law, and he has a rare gift of breaking down complex matters into simple steps and explaining things in simple English. While in his presence, I watched and heard him interact with a few of his other clients, and although it was obvious that some of them were not very proficient in English, it was amazing watching how patiently and with how much care he explained exactly where the case was and what the next steps were to be. It was very evident to me that he was genuinely a nice guy who simply loves doing what he does, which obviously helps him being the great lawyer that he is. As for my own case, Ricky handled it with perfection. He kept me constantly informed on exactly what phase of the application process we were, and what the next steps were going to be. If there was any uncertainty involved (for example, sometimes it can be difficult to predict exactly how long the USCIS would take to rule on or reply to something), he explained it to me beforehand, so I didn't needlessly worry or get nervous. I now have my Green Card, and I am extremely satisfied with the legal counsel that I received from Ricky throughout the entire process. I have since recommended him to a number of my own friends and family members, and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone in need of a good immigration lawyer, who is also just a genuinely nice guy.

Best Lawyer

Mr. Ricky Palladino is in my opinion, a great lawyer. I had a very sensitive criminal conviction that would have been very difficult to obtain my citizenship, according to three different attorneys, who informed me that if I was to apply, I might be put on deportation list.I read about Mr. Palladino... in the newspaper about another case where he successfully another client. Since I met Mr. Palladino, he seemed to be a very honest, knowledgeable and confident that he could help me correct my situation. I decided to hired Mr. Palladino July 2011, to help me change my citizenship status. With his hard work and knowledge, I received my notification that I was on my way to becoming a United States Citizen. I would highly recommend Mr. Palladino to anyone needing legal advice or a reliable attorney.

An amazing immigration lawyer

Ricky is fantastic. We worked with my wife and I to secure me a US green card; he's extremely knowledgeable, meticulous, professional and just great to deal with. The whole process from submitting my documents to receiving notice that my green card was approved was 10 weeks, an amazing turnaround tim...e. Ricky made the whole process stress free and very straight forward, I'd highly recommend him

Best Immigration Lawyer!!!

One of my employees had a virtually impossible case. We consulted with several lawyers who told us the case was hopeless. In fact the employee was facing a deportation order. Ricky took the case on and reversed the situation. My employee just got his green card yesterday. Without exaggeration he... is the best immigration lawyer that I have met.
