Dishonest took my 500.00 never did my work

When I did my green card application I got an attorney to assist me in reviewing documents I had already filled out. So I went to Attorney Elliott and he said he would assist me and he told me that he needed a down payment of 500.00. I paid him the money and I kept trying to get in touch with him and... to no avail. Had to find another attorney to get the job done and lost my 500.00

The best immigration lawyer!

Mr. Elliott is a phenomenal immigration attorney. I was referred to him by a lawyer friend of mine and I have never regretted hiring him. He is very cut to the point kind of guy. He tells you the "truth" and he will not sugar coat anything. He was extremely responsive to out needs and questions no ...matter how big or small he really went out of the way to assist us. He even worked out a payment plan to meet our financial obligations. With his assistance I petitioned for my wife and time was of the essence because if she did not receive her GREEN CARD she would have " overstayed" her welcome and eventually make our case even harder. Within a year of hiring Mr. Elliott my wife obtained her GREEN CARD within a matter of a couple months. Now I am a "Baptist" so I can't give him all the credit but somehow we were able to obtain my wife's GREEN CARD with little resistance. He prepared us for every scenario we could possibly run into with the interviewers and his paperwork preparation is incredible. Without his assistance I would have lost the love of my life. He is worth all the money, honest, and he actually cares about his clients when a lot of other immigration lawyers just care about the large fees hey charge. He is the BEST OF THE BEST! You will not go wrong choosing this guy and let me just say this...I am an extremely picky person and I am hard to please but he his attention to detail and his preparation and knowledge surpasses all others that I have contacted.

Looking for an honest, diligent lawyer with integrity - look no further!

Jim Elliott handled my immigration case over the course of three years. I immigrated to the U.S. from Germany. He filed for a permanent residency status first when I got married to a U.S. citizen and 2 years later I hired him to file for the removal of conditions to the status. I used another lawyer ...before I hired Jim and Jim made all the difference for the better! Jim pays attention to details. He always provided me with an answer, was always available or called back a.s.a.p. Being his client means that he's taking a personal interest in the case to make sure I got the best results. If I hadn't prepared enough he let me know his honest opinion so I was able to prepare better. He called to make sure I met all the deadlines, even after 2 years! His broad experience lets him foresee possible outcomes and he warned us quite a number of times when he thought that we should add more or better evidence. You can be sure to get the best possible service and a truly honest person and lawyer.

Review of James Elliott

We found Mr. Elliott though an online search. We were unhappy with previous lawyers we had consultations with. What first attracted us to Mr. Elliott was the amount of experience he had in immigration law. At our first meeting with him, we automatically felt more at ease. He was professional and kno...wledgeable of our situation. We felt he was truly interested in helping us. He communicated clearly what he needed from us to be able to get started on our case. He makes sure we understand every action he takes. We greatly appreciate how he makes himself available if we have any questions or concerns and is quick to answer.

Excellent

James helped and advised me in the process of getting my citizenship (greencard). He clearly knows what he does, was accurate and quick to respond to messages or paperwork send in to check. The whole process went smooth. He was not advised to me, i "got" him by calling randomly from a list of lawyers.... He was one of the few that responded back to my initial call. He is pleasant to have as lawyer. As soon as my greencard is up for renewal i surely will "use" him again as my lawyer. Absolutely worth the money (not cheap, but surely not to expensive for the service/assistance he gives) When it comes to legal " stuff" you better have a lawyer that knows his business.... i recommend him for "immigration issues" .
