This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Problem With This Firm

This Firm Was The Most Worst Company!!! To Help Me In My Immigration Process, The Lawyer That Was Assigned To Me, was Good At First, Once They Received My Money, It Got Hard To Deal With Them. When Contacting Them, They Would Never Call Me Back, Or Email Me Back For Any Response, I Had To Keep Callin...g And Email Them, The Lady At The Front Desk! Would Say They Will Get Back With You! Ha-ha? Once My Case Was Handed To The Aid Of The Lawyer, It Got So Bad I Was Angry! When My Case Was Going To The Embassy, The Lawyer Made An Appointment With Me! To Go Online At His Office, To Talk And Explain Everything To My Fiancé. Ha-Ha!!! He Never Showed Up For My Appointment, When I Was Fly To Meet My Fiancé, So She Can Go To The Embassy, He Called, And Talked To Me I Was Upset, He Gave Me A Date A Time Range, To Talk To Us Before We Was To Go To The Embassy, Ha Ha Ha!!!!!! But Again Never Called Like Normal Business That They Do, I Found Out That The Embassy Wanted The Paper Work In Order, The Way The Paper Work Was Presented To Them, They Denied It And Told My Fiancé That This Wasn't A Real Marriage And Denied, Our Paper Work That We Have Been Working On And Waiting For Two Year, And The Lawyer Never Called, Until Almost Two Weeks Later Ha Ha Amazing Right And The Amount Of Money I Spent With This Law Firm So I Hope You Have Better Luck With This Law Firm Team

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.
