Seriosity, Hard Work and Results focused!!!!!

I hired Lee & Peynado Immigration Law Group after a big disappointment with a big name immigration lawyer in town(my lesson: don't rush to fall for their "marketing"; the big ones are too big to care most of the time. Not all but, that was my case). Their horrible work on my case was so bad that, wha...t it should have been an easy journey, became a nightmare and a scary stressful situation: we got a NOID. I fired them right away and I was looking for a better, closer to his clients, experienced attorney. I interviewed about 4-5 attorneys until I met Mr. Lee and Jordanne. From the start Mr. Lee stood out with his patience to go over the case with me and answer all my concerns. When I met Jordanne too - I was 100% sure that this team is the best I could have on my side. Mr. Lee has a lot of experience due to his 40 years in the field and Jordanne.. she is just the most hardworking, organized and amazing trooper you can ask for. She is really good, passionate and energic about what she does. I had many questions and she NEVER was late to answer and explain all the process along. She would go up and beyond to find the best strategy you can get to win your case. The way I think about her and Lee & Peynado Law Group is "UNLIKE A SPIDER": a spider stay within its web, waiting. These people go outside the web to provide you with their best service. Immigration process can be a stressful and scary process. The Lee & Peynado Immigration Law Group is your best friend to guide you and fight for you. Trough my direct experience, I recommend them 100%!!! P.S.: they overturned a complicated NOID in just 17 days!!!

Really smart immigration attorney

Lawyer lee helped me tremendously. Other attorneys talked and talked and talked about everything they were going to do for me and nothing. Lee doesn't really talk much but he always delivers because of him, I hired him when I was here illegally and he got me my green card and now I am now a us citize...n. I have referred other clients to him and they all say great things about their experience with him and the lawfirm. I highly recommend him and I am grateful that I went to see him. My family thanks you and I thank you.

Excellent experience when changing immigration status

The company I work for, a Swedish corporation establishing operation in the US, consulted Mr Lee to manage our immigration transition to permanent resident status in the US. The process was all we could have wished for: quick, responsive, and successful. Whenever we needed help filling out documen...tation or had questions we received support faster than I have experienced with any other law firm. It made the pace of the process depend on how fast I could complete the documentation required. We had heard from many people that it would take a long time to process this type of application, so we were somewhat surprised when he estimated the processing time. In the end, the information Mr Lee provided was accurate, and it turned out exactly the way he communicated when we started the process. I would without hesitation recommend Mr Lee, and I will consult him for future legal matters. The Swedish corporation I work for has continued to use him for other applications as well, which have also been processed with the same accuracy.

Absolutley the best Immigration Lawyer

George Lee handled my wifes K1 Visa overstay case with razor sharp precision, impecable timing and absolute professionalism. He handled our voluntary departure perfectly and wrote an impressive i-601 waiver that the consulate called a "book" because of its thorough detail and concise information. The... end result was fantastic as my family was back home in the US much sooner than most cases I read about. He was reassuring during my family crisis and always responded with updates often. I couldnt have been happier with Lee Immigration and their staff and would absolutley recommend using them as YOUR immigration legal team..
