I could not have asked for a better Lawyer

Jason and his team made the impossible into reality. My mother has been trying to get her permanent residency for almost 7 years. She hired 2 lawyers before hiring Jason. They all told her the same thing, that her case was "complicated". Well, she hired Jason and he explained to us the road ahead and... what to expect. My mom just got her permanent residence card last week and she bought a plane ticket to Mexico ! If you want a dedicated law firm that will not give up, and will not settle for less, I highly suggest you consult with Jason Sager and his team. Thank you Jason and Patsy for being professional and dedicated.

Worst attorney ever!!

Please avoid him at any cost!! He is not capable of handling complicated cases. Ten years ago my file was ended in Mr. Jason's hand some how from Mr. Sanders (an attorney who we initially hired and retired without informing us), in desperate need of help we continued to trust Mr. Jason without realiz...ing until after couple years that he was scamming lying/misguiding us. I had final orders of removal and Mr. Jason knew that since the first day he took over my file. He filed i485 after i130 petition became current and took me to an interview without taking proper steps to first get removal orders terminated since USCIS had no jurisdiction over my petition (we didn't find this out after consulting with other attorneys and was told that I am lucky that I wasn't arrested). He wasn't prepared for an interview and scrambling for documents when officer asked for originals since they weren't indexed. When officer told Mr. Jason that he first needs to take care of removal orders, he told us that he will file appeal with BIA even though he knew that Mr. Sanders already exhausted the option for appeal. We didn't find out until we consulted with other reputable attorneys that you can't just keep filing appeals since it was already filed and denied 2-3 times before. Mr. Jason knew all about my case, but somehow and not sure where in this country he filed the appeal, 1-2 years gone and every time I asked for status, I was told "Next Week" by one of his front guys (Mr. Sam I believe) and when we finally met with Mr. Jason he had no exact answers besides lying to us that he is still waiting for response. I finally contacted office of local congresswoman and after explaining my case, they called any where possible in this country to find out if there is any pending appeals on my name and came back with nothing (I am really thankful for her staff for saving me from this guy). This was a big red flag that all this time Mr. Jason was simply lying to us and he didn't filed anything. I contacted Mr. Jason's office and asked to provide me a copy of appeal he filed and every time I called I got "Next Week" or he was sitting out of country, finally after 2-3 months, I called and asked to return all my documents they have. Next Day, I get a call that Mr. Jason wants to meet. He provided a two pages of quick written appeal like I have not seen previous appeals. I asked Mr. Jason to return all of my documents and took it to different reputable attorney that I found from the list of attorneys that I received from someone. I was in my last 2 years of University and instead of focusing on my studies, I was getting scammed by Mr. Jason and his law firm. I usually don't write reviews, but I am writing this today so it will help out someone out there who is in similar situation. I wasted 2-3 years of my life and money with this Attorney, I wish I could give him zero stars!!

The review is grossly inaccurate and comes several years since this office has represented you or had any contact with you. In replying, I can only say that it appears you misunderstood what was done by the office in our effort to fix a problem that occurred BEFORE you hired us, and what we could do under the special circumstances of the case. There are DOZENS of clients and their families who would strenuously beg to differ with you that I am the "worst attorney ever". I have helped many clients (some who have had multiple attorneys before me) successfully overcome obstacles and obtain green cards or other immigration benefits. This office handles many complicated cases successfully; everything from hardship waivers, re-opening of deportation orders, convention against torture, Interpol issues, Federal Circuit Court appeals, and much more. NOT EVERY CASE IS SUCCESSFUL; most immigration benefits are discretionary, the judge or officer making the FINAL decision. We do our best to help our clients but can never make any guarantees. I have a high reputation of being an honest attorney with years of experience in my field. I am also known to be one of the few attorneys who allow clients to set up payment plans, which Is rare of "scammers''. With this being said, thank you for taking your time to write a review and I can only wish you a happy and successful outcome on your immigration case.
