Very few things are as difficult as knowing where to begin with Mr. Sarmiento, In the 20 months or so of working with JP, there have been so many good things that are worth sharing, so much so that even as I type up this review, in my mind, all the 'good things' are screaming "share me! share me!". ... In February 2019 my employer hired Sarmiento Immigration to file an I140 petition for me. Before getting hired however, JP was kind enough to get on the phone with my employer and I. He clearly explained the process and gave us an idea of how long the entire process should take (might I add that his estimated timing was spot on!) In addition to the calls he kindly accommodated before getting hired, I personally bombarded him with emails, and he was kind enough to respond every time. When he started representing my employer and I, it was more of the same, always responsive, knowledgeable and reassuring. Incidentally, if there's anything you need as an immigrant in the US, it is reassurance... JP gave us a truckload of it and then some. Also, JP never delayed in filing documents. In fact he took time out in the few days between Christmas and New Year to send my employer's petition and AOS forms (aka. concurrent filing) to USCIS because a retrogression was predicted for the Final Action Dates for my category in January 2020. Although we received an RFE with regards to my previous job experience, he again ensured that we responded in less than a week and about 4 months later, my case was approved without an interview. As far as Immigration is concerned, JP Sarmiento is in a class all by himself and perhaps he has such a heart for immigrants because he was once an immigrant himself. I doubt that I would be a permanent resident today without his help and support from his team and for that I will be eternally grateful.

Efficient. Responsive. Knowledgeable.  JP Sarmiento is the real deal. I was introduced to JP by a good friend of mine in March 2019. At that time, I was completing my Optional Practical Training (OPT). I wanted to become a Permanent Resident in the U.S. but I didn't know where to start. Enter J...P and his team. They evaluated my chances for a National Interest Waiver (NIW) and quickly sent me a packet via e-mail. They have done several NIW applications in the past, and so they know what they are doing. For those wondering about timelines, this was my experience... We filed my NIW application in June 2019. Got my NIW approval notice in November 2019. Filed my Adjustment of Status application in January 2020. Received a new EAD card in April 2020. Got my Adjustment of Status approval notice in August 2020. Received my plastic green card shortly. I was in constant communication with JP throughout the process and he was consistently responsive. Very professional and highly efficient. JP and his team represented me so well in my green card application, and I can't recommend them enough!

Most importantly, my problem was resolved – I got my J2 residency requirement waived. In the process, JP communicated with me frequently, responded right away, and made paperwork very easy. He has extensive experience, and gave encouragements during the first/free consultation. I can not write enough... positive comments about JP and his law firm!

JP Sarmiento is a very well informed attorney. I highly recommend Sarmiento immigration and law firm. Many times we had confusion and questions but JP always responded and answered the questions very well. We are so thankful to God that we chose JP for our case as he is very reliable and professional.... It was an awesome experience working with him. JP is simply the best at what he does.
