Not trust worthy

Decide for yourself! If a lawyer promises to help with your case and then, after a few months, denies their assistance, they should not be supported. If you review a case, agree to help, and have the client sign a retainer, it is highly unprofessional to deny assistance later. Rude denial of service..., especially after a signed retainer, is a major red flag!

Unprofessional! Waste of time

Here is my story, Consulted this guy for eb2 niw. He believed I have good case. Signed retainer with this firm in June 2024.. Submitted all the documents and case narratives. Was following up with his team on a regular basis. August 8th received an update saying indexing of my case information has ...been completed, and will start reviewing the case. 1st week in September get an update saying their firm received a lot of Rfes and are working on it. September 18, when asked for any update or need me to work on gathering any further information, was told they are working on drafting my recommendation letters. October 15th, all of a sudden Webber emails me saying they had an unexpected changes in law practice and cannot proceed with the case!! That's it. Your 5 valuable months have been successfully wasted!! No explanation and no apologies. Now you decide if you want to do the same mistake I did.

Wasted a lot of time in asking me to fully complete a narrative and finally made an offer to take my case. However rudely refused to move forward when I tried to get clarification on some minor details.

Best immigration service!

Mr. Webber has been the reason I have had successful immigration to USA. He has strong attention to detail, content expertise and communication is par excellence. I have no hesitancy whatsoever in recommending him. His communication and engagement for my case were by far the best I've had with any la...wyers. Thank you again, Robert.
