Save your money...

Justin's idea of a defense is to ask the prosecutor to prove negatives. I was appalled when I heard his arguments. I regret not defending myself

I'm not a defense attorney so this review must be for some other attorney.

Justin Randolph Helpful Lawyer

Our Lawyer, Justin Randolph is professional, friendly, direct, and informative. My husband (who was not a citizen at that time) and I had our immigration appointment set for June 2015. Our current lawyer left a few questions unanswered, thus we were a bit nervous to attend the interview. To... our luck, days before the interview, Justin set up a 30 minute consultation without any previous appointments. During the consultation, Justin a.) Answered our questions b.) Asked important questions and c.) Set up a few possible outcome scenarios. At the end of the consultation, we were both confident for the interview scheduled a few days later. To our surprise, he did not accept any money for the services rendered, nor for his time. Also, Justin returns phone calls in a timely manner. For example, I left him a message Friday afternoon. He returned my call Monday afternoon. He left a friendly and detailed voicemail. We would highly recommend this lawyer. He is dedicated, friendly, and a true professional.

Very Honest and Knowledgeable!

Justin is very honest, knowledgeable and trustworthy attorney. About three years ago he helped me very much for free. Without any fee he gave me very professional and knowledgeable advice. I was in a very difficult situation after an arrest and did not know who to ask for assistance regarding the imm...igration consequences of the arrest. I found his contact online and just walked into his office. After carefully reviewing the paperwork, he advised me how to proceed if not acquitted of the charge. Later on I consulted with him 1-2 more times. His fees are very reasonable, I would say low for the quality of work he does. Besides being honest and knowledgeable he cares about his clients. I really appreciate his help and highly recommend him!

Hands down one of the BEST Attorneys in the Chicagoland area

My family and I started the immigration process almost a decade ago, okay more like seven years ago. We gave our hard earned money to an “Attorney” who claimed to be an expert on immigration. Years later, the only new things that had changed in our lives were less money in our bank account and ton...s of stress and headache. We heard that you can go to your local congressman, senator, or alderman’s office and they should be able to provide you with immigration related assistance. Yeah I’ll just say that lead us nowhere, all they did was write letters and tell us they were doing everything to help us resolve our situation. That led to Lawyer number two, who kept confusing me with his other clients. Which then lead to Lawyer number three, super nice woman, but extremely busy over loaded with cases. Which then lead to Lawyer number four, The Thief, I paid him then he called my mom asking for money of which I had already given him. Finally “The Best Lawyer in the Chicago land Area”, Justin Randolph, came into play. By this time believe me I was prepared for all the gimmicks and lies that are to ever come my way. Justin was/is like nothing we had encountered before. He had email, not one that his secretary checks for him, but one that he checks himself and responds to. He knew that you can scan a document and have it sent to him, instead of taking off work just to drop off some document. He is willing to work with you when it comes to finances, scheduling, and any of life’s crazy unforeseeable matters. When you have a meeting with him, his secretary or assistant will not be sent in to take his place. He is someone that you can have a conversation with, not some grouchy old man who has to turn on his hearing aid so he can understand you better. Since dealing with Justin, my Green Card is in the production process. Yes it is true in the Production Process!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also Justin showed me that there is a website I can go on to check the status of my case. I know that sounds like a simple thing that anyone should be able to figure out, but having someone informed on your side is one of the best things anyone can ask for.
