Approved I-485(immediate relative category) Long wait is over!

Attorney Gerry Dean was there with me, and gave out his very best to help me get approved with my Greencard journey. The road for me was very long and frustrating, but attorney Dean never gave up on my case (EB2 & IR category). Lots of years waiting ( at times in tears and frustration). At last here ...it is... Thanks attorney for all your efforts and advice. God bless you and your staff.

Employment-based visa application

I met Atty. Dean in December 2022 through a friend. I’ve heard a lot of good things about him, like how he helped my friend achieve his American Dream and how he has been helping cacao farmers in Samar. So when I had finally decided to pursue my green card application, I reached out to him to guide m...e with the process. He proved to be the ideal lawyer. He was approachable from the start and took the time to listen to all of my concerns. He explained everything clearly and was very knowledgeable about the immigrant visa application process. When the priority date was retrogressed in mid-2023, I was one of the many who were delayed in the process. Nevertheless, he provided emotional support, guidance, and a lot of reassurance. A LOT. Throughout the process, Atty. Dean and his team (Sarah, LJ, Gibson, and Gabriel) provided regular updates, ensuring that I was always informed. Questions were answered promptly, often within hours, offering reassurance. It felt as though the team was fully invested in my case. Atty. Dean's expertise and experience remain unequaled. For those seeking a knowledgeable and effective lawyer who genuinely cares, Atty. Dean is highly recommended.

Messed up my case, refused to fix his mistakes

Absolutely stay away from this crook. The worst lawyer in Chicagoland. He is careless, rude and not a person you want your immigration case to be handled. Unfortunately, I was referred to him by a few friends. He provided false information on my application, of course my case got denied, he refused t...o fix it and write appeal with expiration of a purposeful mistake, got nasty, however was quick enough to take payment in full!!!! Took me a lot of time money and effort to got it fixed by another attorney in NY. Do not use him, save your money and time. He is disgurting individual
