He explained the process to my husband and I when we contacted him, And everything went exactly as he said. He definitely knows all about Immigration Process . He is g...reat at His job and Very considerate with his fee. He never rushed us, he was Patient and guided us step by step through out the Change of Status process. He does all there is to do and helps fill out all the form, you basically do not have anything to worry about. He is very Professional. I strongly recommend him to anyone Seeking to Change thier Immigration Status.

A great immigration lawyer

Jakub helped my fiancé and I get a fiancé visa and is currently helping us with the green card application process. From the beginning, Jakub has worked hard to make sure that all of our paperwork is done accurately and quickly. When my worries got the best of me, Jakub always found time to answer my... questions and help me see things more clearly​. Immigration issues can be highly stressful and infinitely​ confusing, and I am happy to have found a lawyer as patient, honest, and hard-working as Jakub.

Best legal experience to date

Attorney Jakub Szlaga handled my mother's immigration case. Despite being young, he masterfully navigated the nuances of US immigration law, in the face of my mother's case being a difficult one. In fact, several other lawyers were reluctant to take the case because they were unsure they could delive...r the result. Szlaga not only delivered the promised outcome, he proved to be a knowledgable source of wisdom throughout the process, explaining difficult legal realities in simple language, helping my mother handle the stressful process every step of the way. I would highly recommend Phelps and Szlaga to anybody looking for legal help and advice. Their primary desire to help others and the approachable and friendly nature in which they tackle the client-attorney relationship is a refreshing departure from a frequently unpleasant way in which legal professionals treat their customers.

"There are not enough wonderful things that can be said about Jakub as an attorney, a friend and a person. Not only am I friends with Jakub, but we have worked together on immigration matters. We have also assisted each other with real estate and deed issues for respective clients. Jakub is best known for being highly skilled at navigating immigration matters, but is also an attorney that can handle most matters due to his hard work ethic and ability to research. Jakub is a consummate "learner," that always wants to know more to better represent his clients. Jakub's most important traits are his compassion for his clients and his dedication to assisting them. I highly recommend Mr. Szlaga's legal services."
