Great Lawyer for Green Card Application

She helped me file my EB1 green card application. She has lot of experience and very good at filing strong cases. I did not get any RFEs, but I have heard she dealt with RFEs in a great way. I would recommend her without any reservations.

Not satisfied

Not satisfied with my E-3 process. Too many mistakes with document preparation and a significant delay which ended up causing me a lot of hassle and expense. The whole thing was being run on their time frame rather than mine and that's not what my employer paid for. Karen is very knowledgeable of the... E-3 visa and is personable but the execution was severely lacking in this case. I’d recommend more attention to detail and being clearer around time frames.

I am so sorry to hear this. We have had a 100% success rate with our E-3 applications in 25 years of practice so I am not sure exactly what you are unhappy with. We are not perfect and always strive to improve. Please contact me so we can learn exactly why you are upset and learn from any alleged mistakes. As far as I am aware, none of my clients have incurred any costs other than what was quoted or incurred delays especially in this anti-immigrant climate.

The worst nightmare for any immigrant.

My husband and I considered Karen Lee Pollak the worst nightmare for any immigrant who is trying to fix their legal status even do I did get my green card, we still didn't appreciate that she was ncredible arrogant, cold, rude, and unprofessional. Our experience with Karen was very bad but because w...e had paid her a very high fee thinking she was one of the best in Dallas my husband decided to give her a second chance. Her lack of knowledge of some procedures at the American embassy in my country almost caused my interview to be canceled the same day I had it. issue that I had to fix myself because Karen didn't know anything about it. We would not recommend her services to anybody at all.

What you fail to state is that every step of your very difficult case was approved including receiving a green card with - waiver. You just did not like that I would not repeatedly answer your same questions. Sorry you are not happy, but I don't think you ever will be. You hired me to get your green card and that's exactly what I got you.

REVIEW

Karen-Lee Pollack did absolutely nothing to help me. I got the distinct impression that she viewed my case to be below her. She wanted the easy way out, and the quickest way to my money. My first appointment she canceled, and was late to the second. I qualify for adjustment of status under law 245 i..., and through my U.S. Petitioning husband. I presented her with this information and she proceeded to tell me I had no options but deferred action. What a lie! Three months later and I now have work authorization, social security number, and a driver's license. Thanks to a professional attorney that took the time to review my case and not just brush me off to the side.

I am not sure who this client is but I do not take money from people unless I believe I can help them. What this person does not say is that I provide a complimentary consultation and did not take their case or their money. I have excellent reviews and pride myself on my results.
