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.

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.

Green Card Application

Ricky worked on a green card application through marriage. He explained thoroughly all of the steps involved, required documentation, fees and expected processing times and responses from USCIS. I felt confident that everything was done right and submitted at the right time and felt more in control o...f the entire process. He is very personable and I found it easy to work with him or contact about any questions or concerns. I would definitely recommend Ricky as an immigration lawyer.

Excellent attorney exceptional representation

I would recommend Mr Palladino very highly. He is highly professional, knowledgable,responsive,compassionate and very personable. He truly cares about his clients, and helped us get through a very difficult time with my deportation proceedings while I was detained by immigration. I will be... retaining his services in the future and for my citizenship case. He's winning approach resulted in winning a strong and successful case. Unlike other immigration lawyers I met before, Mr Palladino has been realistic, honest, and -most importantly to me- knowledgeable and intelligent. Thanks to his understanding of immigration law he had a strong strategy on how to present my case. Rather than being worried and distracted by 'what could go wrong', he concentrated on highlighting the strengths. He has done an impressive job in preparing my case and always replied practically in real time to email and phone calls, including nights and weekends. I would highly recommend Mr Palladino to anyone. It's never easy going through an immigration situation being separated from your loved ones but having someone like Mr Palladino on your side will assure you a good outcome.

TRUSTWORTHY LAWYER, EXPERIENCED, HONEST, GREAT GUY

I found Ricky thru AVVO. I am very satisfied with the way Ricky handled my case. There were lawyers who insisted on doing x,y,and z, and pay them crazy money, and then there was Ricky, who honestly said what's going on, what can be expected and what can be done with my case. He was very precise abou...t documents needed, did his homework related to my case, and thank God for this and for him! Everything worked out at the end! I would recommend this young man, who is dedicated to the service he provides, who knows what he's talking about when it comes to immigration law without sugar coating on what to expect, who when need be will go the extra mile to help you out and guide you in the right direction. Thanks Ricky !! I hope I won't have to use you in the future :) Thanks for everything!
