Excellent Experience In Obtaining Permanent Residence Employment Based

My employer hired Mr Martin Valko with Chavez and Valko LLP 4 years ago to handle my case of obtaining permanent residence through employment. Every document in this extensive multi-step process was filed accurately in a very timely manner with a minimum participation on my part. I never had to send ...a reminder—the documents for every step were filed before I had to check the status. To any question I had had throughout this process I was receiving an e-mail response within 30 minutes. My H1-B extension was obtained well in advance the dead line to give me enough flexibility for travelling and keeping my work authorization and driver’s license in order. I will definitely address Mr.Valko for any immigration processes for my family members I may need in the future. I would highly recommend Chavez and Valko company.

Trustworthy, knowledgeable, efficient and responsive professional.

USA Cricket Association employed Martin Valko and the immigration law firm of Chavez & Valko, LLP on an E-3 visa application as well as other immigration matters. Martin and his team were extremely professional and ensured that the process was seamless. He is trustworthy, knowledgeable, efficient and... very responsive attorney who responded to our emails within minutes at times. His team provided guidance on the best manner in which to give the application the best chance of success which was prepared and submitted to a US Consulate, including having the visa interview scheduled all under 14 days, and kept USACA informed of the petition progress. US Cricket is grateful for the efforts of Chavez & Valko, LLP and will use their services again in the future.

BEST attorney one can WISH for.

I choose Mr. Valko because of his great reviews on avvo.com and surely he lived up to his expectation and more. Mr. Valko helped me with a response to a RFE for adjustment of status questioning whether I was out of status. If we didn’t prevail I would have been required to file a waiver for being out... of status for over one year. The case was complicated but he explained it very well during our consultation and provided all the best options possible. His staff was outstanding in working with me in preparing all the required documents. He is very responsive with his emails. I haven't seen any lawyer respond that quickly to emails ever, and provided my situation what was very helpful. He analyzed my case in great detail and prepared excellent response to the RFE which got approved within a week. On top of that he did it within a very tight schedule to meet the deadline. That clearly shows his level of expertise and professionalism. I am forever grateful for his assistance in my case and am confident will help many more who are lucky enough to have him as their attorney.

Highly recommended!

I hired Mr. Valko and his firm 2 years ago. My case was not an easy one by any means. It was lengthy and complicated. As luck would have it, a new immigration program was put into place (Parole in Place), and I was able to qualify for it. Being a new procedure, there was not many prior cases to ref...er to, therefore requiring a combination of excellent immigration knowledge and a willingness to do extra legwork on research. Mr. Valko's legal team of immigration attorneys and paralegals spent hours of research and work into my case; keeping me updated throughout the process, and answering my questions and concerns in a very timely manner. Parole in Place is a very new program, and I am happy to have chosen Mr. Valko's firm to lead me through this journey. Thanks to Mr. Valko and his team, my case was a complete success and I am now a happy Permanent Resident. So if you are looking for a lawyer that's as invested in your case as you are, do not hesitate to hire this law firm, Chavez & Valko.

P1 visa - Martin Valko

My experience with Martin Valko was exceptional. I felt very comfortable from his initial communication with me, all the way through my visa extension process. I am a NFL cheerleader and our employment contracts are annual. With an upcoming I-94 expiration and a new contract, Mr. Valko was efficient ...and determined to be within the time frames. He and his team worked through the week with constant phone calls and emails, and completed the paperwork on the Saturday to be filed on time. With his great attention to detail on the application, USCIS approved the application within five business days! I would highly recommend Mr. Valko and his team of professionals.
