Specific professional answer

In my opinion Robert is one of the lawyers that actually know specifics of the law, unlike many lawyers that give generic answers.

star only review

This attorney offered sound advice. I am dealing with a blackmail situation and privacy is paramount to my decision on how to proceed. I may very well consider hiring this attorney if I move further in settling this matter.

Resourceful and giving

I got to know him through this website. He gave me an invaluable and very specific information for my case ( questions) without charging me. He was the only one who gave me the information I desperately needed. I am preparing for my visa documents without having attorney as I really cannot aff...ord to have one. I had hired an attorny in the past and paid a lot but did not work and I no longer have money for it. But if I can aford, Mr. Schrader is the one I would choose because I know he would make an every effort to make my visa happen. Thank you Mr. Schrader I hope we find attorney like Mr Schrader more , as a foreigner, I am struggling to make my dream happen and I really need a help but truth is, lot of attorneys do not understand how important it is for us. Visa approval would change my life significantly, and eventually, it would make a difference in the word as I have a big plan to accomplish something once this visa is approved. By helping people like myself, immigration attorneys are making a big difference in this world. I hope more immigration attorneys work with true passion.
