I've been a client of Mr. Ivakhnenko since 2014.

He's tough guy, who will fight for you - I can tell you that much!

Excellent Immigation Attorney
My husband and I hired Alexander Ivakhnenko to help me obtain permanent residency. Alexander did a terrific job! Communication was very efficient, always promptly responded to my phone calls and e-mails. He prepared us for our interview very well and was present for it to assist with any challenges. I am very glad that we thoroughly worked on my case, which really paid off resulting in an approval for green card within 7 months. I would very highly recommend Alexander to anyone seeking legal immigration advice.

Incredible professionalism and responsiveness
Mr. Ivakhnenko was hired to assist a family member in obtaining U.S. Citizenship. Our family could not be happier with the services provided by Mr. Ivakhnenko. From the beginning of the relationship, he set expectations, assisted with the document preparation and helped navigate along the entire process. Mr. Ivakhnenko has incredible attention to detail and provided our family with a very high level of service. Our family was extremely happy with the results, as U.S. Citizenship was granted.
I would recommend Mr. Ivakhnenko for any legal needs in the area of immigration.

Simply superb
I had two citations written up for a driving incident that had the potential to upset my driving record at a young age. However, he was very detailed with questioning the events that took place in this incident to receive a firm understanding of the situation. Thanks to Alexander, my tickets were dismissed in a matter of seconds as he dealt with this incident remarkably.

Simply Outstanding!
I ma 21 year old female college student and got into my first accident in early March 2018. I received 2 traffic citations and was deemed the at fault vehicle at the scene. The other party did claim an injury but extremely minor, thank God. I was referred to Mr Ivakhnenko by two other attorneys who assured me that I would be hiring the best counsel for my issue. Upon arriving at court, Mr. Ivakhnenko met with me and explained exactly what would be transpiring when we entered the courtroom. I was immediately comforted by his confidence and knowledge of the law. Mr. Ivakhnenko's approach is no-nonsense and he genuinely cared about my well-being. Mr. Ivakhnenko discussed a strategy with me before entering the courtroom along with the possible outcomes. Inside the courtroom, I immediately knew that I had hired the best counsel possible. He acted professionally and confidently and was able to obtain an extremely desirable outcome for me in my case. I owe an extreme debt of gratitude to Mr. Ivakhnenko for providing the best possible legal representation for me at a very reasonable cost....I would have gladly paid double for his expertise. He was able to protect my perfect driving record and enabled me to leave the courtroom extremely relieved. First and foremost, I am glad that nobody was seriously injured in the accident, but i also feel extremely fortunate that I hired a lawyer who put my mind at ease and obtained for me a most desirable outcome. I highly recommend Mr. Ivakhenko for your legal issues and am confident that he will serve your needs as professionally and skillfully as he has served mine.

We highly recommend Attorney Alexander Ivakhnenko
We applied for asylum without licensed lawyer last year. The case had flaws because we did not know how it had to be. Later we found an Attorney Alexander Ivakhnenko. We began working on our case without any delays. We made many additions and improvements. We regret that we did not contact Alexander Ivakhnenko from the beginning. He is a real professional and a good attorney.

Job nicely done
I am very thankful that a long time ago I have called Alexander and hired him to handle my case. Now, when my case is long time resolved, I look back and think of Mr. Ivakhnenko with a quote "The most important thing in our situation is to get to the right people".
I am writing this review three years later from the case closure: even now I can't thank enough Mr. Ivakhnenko.
Brilliant and very professional!

We hired Mr. Ivakhnenko for my mothers immigration related problem. He solved our issue in two visits and in fraction of cost. He is very knowledgeable about the law & takes cares of his clients fully. We are very happy with Mr. Ivakhnenko.
Response from Alexander IvakhnenkoAugust 16, 2017
This was a classic situation when a timely legal assistance prevented considerably legal issues and possible removal proceedings. We were able to literally salvage the status saving the family protracted years of litigation and thousands of dollars in legal fees.
