    Review Mazen Sukkar

    Top notch immigration services with golden plated delivery

    Posted by

    I have been dealing with Sukkar’s office since August 2010. I’m impressed of the standard and quality of provided services due to the following: 1- The existence of professional expert team who are willing to help and provide the required support 2- The elaboration and provision of detailed information for each step in the immigration process 3- The attendance and replying to any query within a short period 4- The acknowledgment of receiving emails and trying to provide the required support even during weekends and public holidays.

    Mr. Sukkar is an honorable and extremely knowledgeable attorney. His expertise lies in every aspect of immigration law. He can handle the most complicated investor case along with the most complex court case. I have spoken with many of his colleagues and he is very well respected and admited by the bar. To Mr. Sukkar, immigration is not just his field of practice, but his passion.

    Highly recommended

    Posted by

    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 the 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

    Posted by

    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 cualidades 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

    KING OF ATTORNEYS

    Posted by

    When it comes to talk about Sukkar & associates firm, I became speechless. A word “thank you” is not enough to reflect my Gratitude toward their profession efforts, tremendous experience, and sincere advice. I consulted a lot of attorneys but I was so stressed and lost because most of the attorneys which I had met cares about their financial part, so I did not feel comfort, impulsion, and confident to go forward and Entrusted my case till I met with Mr. Mazen Sukkar. It’s been more than 3 years since I know him, he is a wisdom man, professional attorney, patient to answer my frequent inquires, and he treats me as his son. Eventually I want to thank Mr. Mazen Sukkar, Mr. Michelangelo Croce, Mrs. Priscilla Khelifi and Mrs. Trilce Zapata for their help as my case was approved after years of waiting. I’m so grateful and I highly recommend Sukkar & associates firm for Immigration purpose.
