Complicated Green Card Case

Ken is a lifesaver and he's the best attorney! I've had a very complicated immigration case that has carried on for many years. Prior to Ken, I had met with five highly recommended attorneys but they weren't capable of taking my case and didn't believe there was anything at all they could do. They en...couraged me to give up and told me no one would be able to help me. Ken was completely different and had no qualms about my case, and assured me that it would work out. I was not disappointed, he put in a lot of work and care into my case. I received my green card in less than 6 months. I would recommend Ken to anyone, no matter what level of obstacles their situation contains.

H1 visas and Green Card

Ken was very helpful and diligent with the work. Got me an L1B, then a H1B visa renewed 2 or 3 times, and finally a green card (received in the mail last week. Great work!

Appealing my petition.

My petition to bring my wife over from ethiopia was not going anywhere until i hired Ken. in fact it was rejected multiple times. Ken was able to put everything together and submitted my appeal.it was approved and the US Embassy in Ethiopia granted my wife a visa. i am so happy and anyone with simila...r situation like mine,please do not try to take on INS on your own or with lame lawyer. Hire Ken and i tell you you won't regret.

Truly the best immigration attorney!

Where do I begin...Ken has been truly amazing throughout the entire process of applying for the green card for my mom. He is knowledgeable, patient, respectful and always willing to answer all our questions (and we had many!). He was upfront with his fees and everything else, which we really apprec...iated. My mom's case was not easy, but he was still able to help us get her the green card. I truly can not speak highly enough of him and have already recommended him to several people.

Denied application reversed to APPROVED VISA

Ken Levine, though he is based in Georgia and I am based in Texas, worked with me throughout the whole process of my H1B application. Why you should hire him: 1. He is professional. He replies to your every e-mail promptly and even his e-mails are written very clear and easy to understand; 2. He d...elivers what he promises. From the get go, he told me he is positive that he will get me my visa approved. After 2 RFEs, a denial, and an appeal for reversal of decision, my application got approved. MY VISA WAS ALREADY DENIED. YET HE GOT THE USCIS TO REVERSE THEIR DECISION. What more can you ask for? 3. He is very organized and prompt. If he needs documents for your case, he informs you when he receives it. If he received something from the USCIS regarding your case, he sends you a copy through e-mail (original documents were sent to me after he got my visa approved). His e-mails are very straight-forward so you won't be confused on what to send him; 4. He makes you feel at ease. The whole process made me anxious but Ken made me feel at ease like I have nothing to worry about. He assured me he'll get me a visa and he surely did. Thank you, Ken!

"I have known Mr. Ken Levine soon after he graduated law school and worked under the tutelage of a top immigration law firm -- and when Mr. Levine started his own highly successful law firm in Atlanta. He has always maintained his commitment to excellence, serving clients' needs -- all throughout his career. He is highly regarded and respected amongst his peers, and is also considered the consummate professional by layperson clients, corporate clients and law-firm clients alike, many whom I have referred employment-based immigration matters to. In my twenty-plus years of law practice, I have known very few attorneys with Ken Levine's intelligence, attention to detail and professionalism. He is a "Superstar" Immigration lawyer."
