This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Highly recommended

I was referred to this office by a friend who also had a wonderful experience working with Mr. Sukkar and his team. From the initial consultation, they took the time to explain in depth the entire immigration process. Mr. Sukkar inspires great confidence and has a firm handle of the ins and outs of t...he procedures due to his decades in the field. His team in the office were always very diligent about the completion and submission of forms. All in the office remained helpful and responsive throughout the process when we had questions or needed additional assistance. I highly recommend Sukkar & Associates.

IMMIGRATION MASTER OF MASTERS

Cuando de inmigración se trata, algo tan delicado que involucra, no solo al solicitante, sino al futuro de toda su familia, la elección del abogado es fundamental. Mazen Sukkar no es solamente un abogado de inmigración, es EL ABOGADO. Su inmensa experiencia y sabiduría son solo comparables con sus c...ualidades humanas. Su inmensa calidez nos ha honrado en todo momento. Su claridad mental, producto de una increíble inteligencia y su casi obsesión por el detalle nos ha transmitido tal seguridad que la aprobación de nuestro caso de inmigrante solo nos sorprendió por la rapidez en que ocurrió. Feliz de haber conocido a Matzen Sukkar y a su equipo de increíbles profesionales de la ley de inmigración, pero mas feliz aun, de contar con ellos, como mis verdaderos amigos, en este gran país... Dios bendiga a Matzen Sukkar y su equipo, Dios bendiga a los Estados Unidos de América

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.
