Mr. Martin Valko is a very knowledgeable lawyer in regards to immigration and its present laws. During our consultation, Mr. Valko listened to my relative's concerns about his immigration status. He gave my relative honest strait forward answers on what forms he could fill out in order to change his... immigration status. Two weeks, later I am glad to announce that my cousin has obtained an F-1 student visa at US Consulate in Europe. Without Mr. Valko's knowledge and guidance my relative would have not been given the F-1 visa or the opportunity of receiving a quality education. I would highly recommend Mr. Valko and his immigration law firm Chavez & Valko to anyone seeking help with immigration issues. Thank you once again for your time, help, and patience.

We would highly recommend Dallas immigration lawyer Martin Valko of Chavez & Valko to anyone wishing to make their immigration process go more smoothly. When each of us first met Martin Valko both of us felt very comfortable and confident. Mr. Valko was extremely courteous and helpful and displayed ...exceptional knowledge in the field of immigration law. Mr. Valko assisted my wife and me with her I-485 permanent residence case. He communicated with clarity and all of our concerns, however minor, were promptly addressed either by him or his assistant. He provided us with personal support at a time when it was most needed just days before our scheduled interview with the immigration official. It took us a less than a year of filing the paperwork that my wife was granted a residency card. We cannot explain in words how happy we have been since we obtained my wife’s permanent residency card. Once again on behalf of both of us thank you for the quick, steadfast, honest, and hard work put into our case resulting in success. With warm regards and God Bless.

I had the pleasure of working with the immigration law firm of Chavez and Valko last year for my H-1B specialty occupation work visa petition. The attorney’s and his staff’s attention to detail and quick communication turnaround was exemplary. I wish all attorneys’ services were this good (not just i...mmigration). This is especially pertinent because for someone like me – a client with minimal awareness of quickly changing immigration regulations and laws, it’s tough to keep up while staying on top of my full time job. I had some follow up queries many months after completion of my service obligation with them, and Mr. Valko personally replied on the same day I had emailed him – I really appreciated his excellent comprehensive reply and so will you. They are the specialists who know what they are doing, and I was very thankful for my company (a Fortune 500 company) to choose Chavez & Valko to represent me and the company itself. I would highly recommend immigration lawyers from Chavez & Valko, LLP to anyone looking for their immigration service solution.

We wish to thank Martin Valko from the Chavez & Valko LLP Immigration Law Firm. They were 100% professional and handled our case with seamless ease. We would have no hesitation whatsoever in highly recommending this law firm to anyone. We would especially like to thank the paralegal, Anya Schendeler,... who handled our case, for her kind and courteous demeanor at all times. All of the staff that we encountered at the firm are completely competent and professional at all times ... Thank you guys for a wonderful service.

"Our L visa case history: After a very bad experience with our previous New York-based immigration attorney, we started looking for another one with experience in the immigration sector. We scheduled a meeting with Dallas immigration lawyer Mr. Martin Valko of Chavez & Valko, and asked him what h...e thought about our case. In April 2008 we received our L- 1A Visa (L2 for the family) to establish a new office of our German Software Company in the US. Unfortunately we were not able to leave Germany before October 2008. In December 2008 we asked our prior attorney to apply for the extension of the Visa. He filed the application for the extension of the L1-A Visa in April 2009 (5 months later). Instead of answering the INS request for evidence (RFE), he tried to change the Visa application from L1-A into a L1-B. The US immigration denied the petition because we were not able to change the status for a filed petition. To do so, we would have had to file a new one. However, not worst enough, he told us not to leave the US and to stay during he was filing a petition for a B1 Visa to gain additional time to prepare a new L1-A application. Mr. Martin Valko took on our case. He told us that it will be difficult but he would try to rescue the case, thoroughly explained the case to us after his analysis of the immigration laws and regulations, and promised us to do the best. After he had all our paperwork, he and his legal team needed only a few days to prepare the new L1-A petition (L-2 for the family). We used the premium processing service of the USCIS, and we had our approval after less than one week!!! We then scheduled a visa appointment at the US Consulate in Berlin, Germany the following week, and our new L-1A and L-2 visas have been granted for a full one year! When searching for a good immigration attorney, you will find thousands of attorneys and all of them promise to be the best and to do the best work. After all this experience we can tell, that there are only a few really good immigration attorney out there and it is hard to find them. We found one of them and are proud of this work, and we can't thank him enough. Mr. Martin Valko knows what he is talking about! He has a lot of experience in immigration law and his rates are absolutely fair. For all of those people in need of an immigration attorney, we recommend the law firm of Chavez & Valko in Dallas, TX." - Provox Systems, Dallas, TX
