the best

After reading the good and the bad about using a Lawyer and much research, I decided on using Gjoka Law Firm immigration services. It was one of the best decisions I have made in my life. Marriage is a life changing decision and using Ardian the best help me and my wife was astronomical. We received... the best advise, a six star service rating, I must share the awesome job they did for us and our family, we can now move to the next chapter in our lives. Thank you so much for your patients

Serves His Clients to the Max

Ardian has advised / represented my husband and me for over 18 months for an immigration matter --- my fiancée (now husband) overstayed his tourist visa and I petitioned for him to become a lawful permanent resident. Prior to meeting with Ardian, I filled out the forms by myself but I did not sub...mit the forms to the government. I researched and met with several immigration attorneys in the state of Florida. Out of the three attorneys I met with, I felt most comfortable with Ardian because of his willingness to listen and thoroughness when providing advice. When I initiated the first in-person meeting with Ardian, I wanted to use him as a second level reviewer to the forms that I completed on my own. I quickly realized the value of getting him as our attorney because he identified mistakes that I made on the forms, which could have either delayed the process or rejected our application. He also identified two forms that I did not know I needed to fill out --- to get my husband's work authorization and to get my husband a social security number, which again highlights the importance of getting a creditable, experienced attorney like Ardian. After Ardian filed the necessary forms (August 2019) to petition the status change, my husband and I relocated from the state of Florida to another state. During our transition, Ardian handled the administrative process of updating our address and answering our questions about our new state's Department of Motor Vehicles and traveling by airplane. My husband still received his work authorization and social security card (November 2019) in a timely manner too even after moving. Due to the international pandemic of COVID-19, our state's immigration offices closed from March 2020 to June 2020. In August 2020, we were given notice for our in-person interview with immigration. We interviewed on September 9, 2020 and my husband was approved the next business day to become a permanent resident. All in all, I am happy with our service --- Ardian guided us to ensure our forms were processed without errors and advised us on lawful activities. My advice to anyone who needs to go through the immigration process --- 1. Find an attorney that you feel comfortable having a relationship with over multiple years 2. Find an attorney that is a good listener who gives advice for your specific situation 3. Find an attorney who has multiple years of experience filing these forms for various different immigration matters 4. Find an attorney that is responsive 5. Find an attorney that has the ability to work with you regardless of where you live at in the U.S. 6. Find an attorney that has the technology to ensure that your paperwork, forms, and supporting documentation are secure and can be handled safely over the internet That attorney was Ardian for my family --- he provided all six of the attributes that I listed above. Highly recommended and for the fee that you will pay, it is worth it over the course of multiple years. The immigration process is an investment and requires legal expertise to avoid mistakes. My prayers to any family who is going through the immigration process --- Ardian supported our family's process professionally and I am thankful.

Excellent service

My husband and I are very happy with the services from Gjoka Law Firm. Ardian is an excellent attorney and person. He is always on top of all the paperwork and returns calls and emails in a timely manner. We are very grateful we found him and we definitely recommend his firm.

Very Satisfied

I was very happy with Ardian. He is very professional and personal. My wife and I had originally hired another lawyer and he bailed on us at the last minute telling us we would not be approved for the green cards of her and my step son after he filed our applications incorrectly. Ardian was very hel...pful with correcting the errors he made and also made me feel very confident by his intelligence of the law that we would be approved which we were. Finally he accommodated us financially by working cheaper than any lawyer we had encountered throughout the process. I would highly recommend Gjoka Law Firm to anyone.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Ardian Gjoka is one of the best attorneys I have had the privilege of working with since I became a lawyer in 1981. He is brilliant and creative and he is the most hard-working attorney I have EVER met. He will literally work 18 hours a day to get the answer to whatever issue he is dealing with. He is not concerned about how much time a project takes; he is focused like a laser on getting the job done, and getting it done correctly. Ardian is loyal, dependable, honest, and a good person to have on your team. You do NOT want him to be on the OTHER team! Ardian is now working in Immigration Law. I know that he is very well versed in that area of the law and that he has had a great deal of experience assisting foreign nationals who wish to become U.S. citizens. I strongly endorse Ardian. He is an example of what all attorneys should try to be like."
