This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Peace of mind

I hired this law firm to migrate to the United States throw marriage, in less than three months my conditional green card was approved. Three years later I rehired this firm to remove the condition and get a 10 year green card which with Mr. New’s help the process went very smoothly and I got the ...green card with no condition. Both times I hired Mr. New, he would constantly updated me with each step, so I never felt the need to contact him for any updates. He is also very fair and affordable each time I hired him. I referred him to another friend and they were very satisfied with his work. I highly recommend Mr. New for any immigration needs you might have.

Excellent lawyer

Peter is an excellent lawyer that I will recommend him to anybody who is trying to deal with any immigration case, Peter don't care about the money, he care more about the job being done,, Peter has helped me get to the State to be with my wife , everything he says or tells you is on point,he always ...responding back to his emails, even if he misses your call he calls you right back .I wish there is a way I can give more than 5 stars to Peter because he do more than what other lawyers will not do ,again "he makes sure Job is done"

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.
