This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Excellent attorney for H1-B cases

I am a practicing immigration attorney. Couple of months ago we decided to hire someone who needed H1-B visa, and hired Chuk to file a H1-B case for my firm. He did an awesome job in representing my firm. He is fast, competent and diligent. Highly recommended for Business and employment based immigra...tion cases.

"I know Chuk through my former professor, when my firm decided to file a H1-B case for a potential employee in our firm. Although I am Immigration attorney myself but had limited experience to handle H1-B case. I was amazed how fast and diligent he worked on our case. He is top nudge immigration attorney in the filed of Employment based Immigration and immigration in General. I highly recommend him for any kind of immigration case, specially employment based immigration cases."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
