Charlie Cui

He is an awful lawyer. He is stubburn and incompetent to the core. His paperwork filing sucks. No one and I mean no one should deal with Charles Hua Cui.

I use my own judgment and legal knowledge to present the cases. You may agree or not agree with me. But I'll try my best efforts. Please note clients who are not happy with my practice do have the forum to file complaints to State Bar. For my case, it is State Bar of Michigan http://www.michbar.org/, phone: (800) 968-1442.

VERY UNPROFESSIONAL; WASTE TIME AND MONEY

Rude and unprofessional. He gave me numerous wrong advices, which costs me to pay unnecessary $$$10K to proceed with the case. Once, I found out the fact from another attorney, he went very upset and said "there were no legal basis, you would end up getting nothing". He also said there was a rule not... to talk with 2 lawyers and once I broke this rule he would not do my case any more. I returned his email attaching a link clause from USCIS. 3 weeks later, he bluntly replied "I just realized it was legit." and he has the nerve to ask me to represent the case again. He is very rude and arrogant by the way. Be careful, I hope this only happens to me.

Thanat, are you the employee with MCSS, Inc.? You received your green card in 8 months through EB-2. You are still not happy? Did you have chance to talk to your boss Kiran and H.R. Nancy? I represented the company for 5 years now, and I have great working relationship with them. Normally I communicate with Nancy, and the company paid everything for you. I am not aware that you were not happy for your wife's I-485 filing? Which lawyer charged you $10k? Are you lying or you may contact their state bar for overcharging you. I told you clearly that I can file her I-485, which won't cost you a penny, but you never responded to me. Are you still with MCSS? I heard you quit your job right after you received your green card. Please note clients who are not happy with my practice do have the forum to file complaints to State Bar. For my case, it is State Bar of Michigan http://www.michbar.org/, phone: (800) 968-1442. Untruthful comments about my legal practice with melicious intent will end you in a civil law suit.
