JP Sarmiento Review

I am an immigrant from India. I was doing my Master's here in the United States. During the second year, I dropped below full-time enrollment due to which my F1-visa status got violated & there was no other option except to go for reinstatement. I contacted many law firms in the country for the same... thing but none of them were clear or convincing in their approach. It was only after I got in touch with JP Sarmiento of Sarmiento Immigration law firm that I began to feel I could overcome this critical situation which otherwise seemed quite impossible. He was very positive & clear in his approach and made things less complex for me by clearly mentioning the feasible options to me & other important documents that could strengthen my application. All of this strengthened my application immensely and helped me restore my F1-status without any problem. I would therefore recommend JP Sarmiento law firm.

BEST IMMIGRATION LAWYER

I am an immigrant from the Philippines who initially came to the US on a J-2 visa. My visa became invalid when my wife divorced me. After 1 year, I remarried an US citizen and we were researching for a good immigrant lawyer. After a long search and a great deal of frustration and confusion regardi...ng immigration, we finally found JP Sarmiento Law Firm in the Filipino Reporter (a NYC local filipino newspaper). We contacted JP and explained my situation and seek guidance. JP explained clearly the immigration process, his experience, and what steps that needed to me made. JP is a supportive, professional, very kind, well-spoken, organized individual, has a great attention to detail, and kept in contact with us during every step of the process via email, in-person, and telephone. His main office is located in Cleveland,OH, but he came to the NYC/NJ area to meet with us twice and answered all of our many questions. He was helpful and responsive until the very end of the immigration process. On the day of the interview, JP sent his associate, Sung Hee Glen Yu Esq., who met us at the USCIS office and was very supportive and informative during a stressful day for us. Now, I have obtained my green card through JP's expertise in immigration law. Thank you so much JP and Glen for all your help! I highly recommend JP Sarmiento Immigration Law Firm.

Extremely helpful and organized attorney

I am an American-born physician living in Cleveland, Ohio. I retained JP Sarmiento to help in my wife's immigrant application to the United States. He was extremely helpful, organized, and with very fair fees. He and his staff basically took care of filing and keeping track of my case, and I did ...not have to worry about anything throughout the approval process. I even got a call from him on the day of my wife's embassy interview asking how things went. I've needed the help of a couple attorneys in the past, and JP has been by far the most caring and selfless. I would highly recommend JP for immigration or other legal work. I have no complaints.

Visa Assistance

It is always an advantage to get guidance from someone who has been in your position before and I think that is one of the primary reasons why consulting with JP did not seem impersonal. Throughout the process he was extremely cooperative, highly competent and very prompt. He explored all possibl...e options to make the process as convenient as possible for us. I would definitely recommend JP and his firm to anyone seeking help with immigration issues.
