Without question, the best immigration attorney you can find

I was referred to Mike’s firm for a second opinion by a close friend; he had had a successful result on a very complex asylum case. My case was also complicated. I was applying for asylum while under a J visa. Not only that, I had been on that visa for more than five years. The day we went for the co...nsultation we decided Mike had to represent us. Let me go back and give you more insight into our story. Our former lawyer was very knowledgeable, had a lot of experience, and had favorably taken care of my own brother’s and sister’s visa issues. However, he had little to no expertise in cases like ours. He never confessed that to me, but it became evident after our first two meetings. I was not entirely comfortable putting my family’s future on his hands. That was when we explored the possibility for a second opinion. From the very beginning, everything went smoothly with Mike. Besides being kind, soft-spoken, caring, and professional, Mike demonstrated to be a very skilled attorney. His team especially Edward did an excellent job guiding us through this complicated process. The day of the interview Mike paid attention to every word. At the end of the interview, he brought up to the officer several details that were missed and would have harmed us if not discussed. In the end, our asylum was granted. We will be grateful for life to Mike, Edward, and all his team for helping us. We don’t need to be scared anymore. Thank you!

AMAZING. SIMPLY THE BEST

We approached Michael R. Jarecki with a very difficult case. He was very professional and did not just take our case. He listened to my full account and after thinking about it, he took my case. He was truly not in it just for the money. the whole team was always contacting me,and asking me any quest...ions they had to help on my case. They were very thorough with every minute detail. And that left me feeling confident every step of the way. They did not push me or stress me out. which made me feel at ease while taking to them. Some one is always on the line to pick up your calls and answer any questions you have. I am very confident to say that this team of attorneys is the best out there.

Best LGBTQ representation in Illinois!

We found Mike through an online search to find representation for my wife's case which was extremely complicated. Previously, we were starting the process with an attorney who's staff was incredibly rude and we dropped them immediately upon meeting Mike Jarecki and his team. With Mike and his team, w...e were treated with the utmost respect throughout the entire process. They were always available to answer any questions and to support us through the process for my wife's permanent residency application. We had great success during the immigration interview; Mike was cool, calm and collected while answering some of the questions that were being asked by the immigration officer. He spoke up on our behalf when we needed him to and we always felt supported and safe under his representation. Thank you Mike and Cris for your immense support and professionalism throughout this very sensitive process. You have truly changed our lives and we will never forget your kindness and support. From beginning to end, we completed our entire process and were approved within 100 days. Thank you!

Excellent Experience

Mike and team came to the rescue in what I considered a very devastating situation. My then fiancé now wife, was detained when trying to enter the country. Mike put everything into perspective and gave us different options on how to approach this. He worked with us and helped us prepare for worse cas...e scenarios. My wife ended up having her K-1 Visa approved and was able to come to the US! I will forever be grateful for the wonderful service provided by Mike and his team. The absolute most professional, efficient, knowledgeable and accessible team to work with.
