Margaret Wai Wong

She is honestly the best lawyer that I've ever had. Many of these lawyers, most of whom have consumed my money, were careless, not as knowledgeable, and definetly did not do the job. I was hopeless and had countless thoughts of being deported back to my homeland, and I was trying to pursue a degree. ...Then my friend introduced me of her, and immideatly we had a plan on how I can stay here. It didn't take too much time until I became a legal resident in this "Land of Opportunity" I highly recomend this lawyer! Can't go wrong with her expertise and passion.

Ms Wong helped me get my green card when I was told my case was hopeless by two other lawyers. She even discounted the fees because I could not get my money back from the lawyer who botched my case up pretty badly. Ms Wong never made promises like the other lawyers but she promised she would try to h...elp me. And helped me she did. As busy as she was, she had different people keeping me informed on the progress. She is truly a godsend!!!

Margaret Wong was recommended to me by a friend as an exceptional lawyer. If you step into her office in cleveland, you will have the belief of course that she is exceptional and successful. She gave me a fee to help resolve my case then after i had made most payments changed her mind and said she wa...s only going to help me in one stage. Why did she have to wait for almost a year to inform me of this ?? only God knows! I believed in the Almighty and even without Margaret Wong, the Almighty saw me through my case. I didnt take any money back from her and decided to use another Attorney who helped me.

This was back in 2007, I was trying to adjust status into the US. She told me, "No problem, this is a simple case, I'll have you in within a couple of weeks. Don't worry." She is very convincing as a salesperson, and her marketing is second to none - lots of advertising, radio, TV interviews, she... puts on the good face of a concerned immigration attorney who wants to look out for your best interest. Don't you believe it: what she is really looking out for is her bank account. I handed over $5,000 and as soon as she had my money, she was virtually impossible to contact. From that point onward, everything was done by inept paralegals who made many blatant mistakes. They would send me paperwork to sign, I would identify all the mistakes and send it back. They would fix the mistakes and send it back, whereupon I would find even more mistakes. This would go on over and over again with every document. It was like they either didn't care, or weren't properly trained. The paralegals did incredibly incompetent, sloppy work. USCIS is so exacting that even a tiny mistake on a form can result in rejection. It was horrifying that Ms. Wong's paralegals were intending to submit these forms on my behalf with so many blatant errors. The first visa application she submitted was denied. USCIS said that I did not qualify for the visa for which Ms. Wong told me I qualified "no problem, don't worry." Once again, she told me "No problem," and she had me reapply with a different type of visa which she "for sure" knew I would be approved. Months wasted and even more thousands of dollars down the drain, and USCIS denied that visa application as well - again, they said I did not qualify for that visa, even though Ms. Wong again had told me I more than qualified. $12,000 and two denied visa applications later, Ms. Wong said she would call and work on appealing my second denied application. But not to worry, if they still denied it, she said I could just "marry my US girlfriend and file a spousal visa." Weeks went by, I sent multiple emails and left countless voice mails. Time was running out. I finally got her on the phone. "Oh sorry, did nobody get back to you? Yes, well, I talked to them, and they didn't seem to think it would go through, so I don't really see a way of this working out. Sorry. Maybe you should talk to a different lawyer, you might have better luck with them." Are you kidding me? $12,000 spent, and absolute minimal effort on her part. When the decisions didn't go the way she repeatedly promised me they would, she turfed me as a client and told me to go try a different immigration lawyer! I did exactly that. My new immigration lawyer looked at her work, called it "shoddy" and "borderline fraudulent" and told me that BOTH visa applications she had me attempt were not correct for me. He also told me that the advice Ms. Wong had given me about using a spousal visa was ethically wrong and would likely have had me being charged with fraud had I attempted it. Today I am a naturalized US Citizen. No thanks to Margaret Wong and her staff of incompetent bumblers. I would stay FAR away from this woman and her practice.

We paid her $ 8,000.00 just for one bond hearing, with the promise that he would be out the did not explain nothing. The bond was denied... They said if we want to appeal is going to be another contract and more money (Elisa said) ... they wanted to work with the asylum but they asked for $ 10,000.0...0 more but we do not accept Mexico does not apply for asylum ... and pay 10,000.00 $ with probability of not winning??... we already paid 8k for nothing. You took advantage of our despair and our ingenuity to overcharge us for just one hearing. Want or money back!!! You overcharge us just for ONE bond hearing. Not Fair... BAR.
