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.

Ricky was a God send for me

Just when I had given up about getting a GREENCARD, God put Ricky in my path. He helped me understand my case and was able to get me a very fast results. I'm glad I met him when I did and will highly recommend him to anyone needing his services.

Highly Recommend Palladino

Ricky was fantastic to work with throughout this entire process. Before my husband and I began filing for a green card he explained what would be required, the timeline and the financial aspect. He laid everything out in a very clear manner & made both of us feel very comfortable asking questions a...nd voicing our concerns. In addition to the level of comfort we had with Ricky, he also accommodated meeting around my work schedule, he had translators on staff to help translate foreign documents, handled all of the application paperwork, and prepared us well for the interview. I would highly recommend Ricky for any immigration needs. There seemed to be a lot of forms, required documentation and specific timing of when to file things that Ricky managed for us. He really made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process & relieved the stress of not fully understanding the process/system.
