A great service from a great professional

I have experienced a most professional and most effective immigration services with Brendan Delaney and his team. I used Brendan’s office to apply for a J-1 waiver and a green card with no sponsorship from any institution. It was a bit of a challenging task so I reached out to Brendan who, upon a... very short notice (less than ~48 hrs) made time to meet with me and extensively walk me through the entire process. Consult was free, it lasted more than an hr, Brendan was very positive, very personable and confident. I immediately felt I was dealing with a class-A professional in the field. Brendan was then always available over the phone and replying my emails within less that 24 hrs. Effective and efficient communication convinced me that he and his team would be of invaluable help for my petition. I would and I will recommend Brendan to all my friends and previous coworkers. The service I received is simply out of this world. No question or concern that I had before and during the process was left unanswered. The preparation of application package went smoothly and with minimal work from my part. Of note, even after I was successfully granted my permanent resident status, Brendan was responding my emails regarding immigration-related issues/questions I was having. I undoubtedly consider Brendan my go-to lawyer for any issues concerning immigration and related issues.

Great service!

Brendan Delaney and his team worked diligently and professionally, leading to the approval of my NIW petition. Going into the process, I was aware that the low number of publications that I had might hinder approval, so wanted the help of professionals. I contacted Brendan based on a referal, a...nd was impressed by the overall work produced. The fees for NIW petition preparation and filing was competitive with other lawyers I had contacted. Since part of the fee was contingent upon approval, I felt that they, too, had a vested interest. There were a couple of times when the team got busy, so I had to send follow up emails to keep pushing the process along. Regardless, Brendan was generally able to keep me apraised of progress, and responded quickly to questions and concerns that I had. Overall a strong recommendation - good luck on your journey!

LPR - green card

I decided to apply for the Legal Permanent Residence Status and I went to talk to Dr. Delaney who presented me with all the different options. I received my E1 visa in about 8 months. The entire process was very smooth and fast . Most importantly, each step was enjoyable despite the hug amount of doc...s. I highly recommend Dr. Delaney.

Excellent and reliable

I contacted Brendan to obtain information about how to apply for a green card. He assessed the particulars of my situation, and gave me straightforward and detailed advice that I had been unable to obtain from other sources. I felt that he gave an honest appraisal of my chances for success in pursu...ing the different routes through the immigration process. Based on his consultation recommendation, I hired him to pursue green card application through the National Interest Waiver. He and his staff were professional and helpful in guiding me through the process of compiling the required documentation, providing detailed lists and examples to ensure that my case was as strong as it could be. He also gave me realistic estimates of the timelines, and when I became concerned that I hadn't yet heard about the status of my application at the state department, he quickly was able to give me a status update. I was successful in my application, and strongly believe that the process was as smooth as it was because of Brendan and his team. They were also very understanding of my professional schedule and obligations, allowing me to complete the steps of the process when I had time, and remotely (online and through the mail). I would highly recommend his services, especially if you are naive to the immigration process in the USA and need someone not only to facilitate the application process, but also to help you wade through the different options and find what is most likely to be successful for you.
