Professional, very responsive, excellent results

Mr. Valko and his team handled my husband's adjustment of status case. They were extremely quick to respond to any questions, and took the time to make sure we were completely aware of all the status updates we received for our case. Mr. Valko and his team were very helpful in completing the necessar...y government forms, they made the entire process painless! We had moved from Dallas to Houston before my husband received his green card, and Mr. Valko sent an attorney to Houston to join us for our interview. I could not be any happier with the service provided by Mr. Valko and his lovely team, I would highly recommend his services to anyone!

Great attorneys

Very reliable and prices are very reasonable. Would definitely recommend it to other people pursing Adjustment of Status or any other immigration matter. Anya communicated with us regarding everything that we needed to attend to and we got everything done in a really good time frame! Mr. Valko attend...ed the interview with us and was very helpful. Would definitely do business again with Chavez and Valko!

Excellent

Chaves and Valko LLP is an excellent Immigration Law Firm. My wife and I worked with Mr. Valko to attain a permanent status for my wife. Our emails and phone calls were answered by a Paralegal the same day or as soon as the office opened. Mr. Valko personally joined us at the interview at the Immi...gration Office which to us showed a personal courtesy to his clients. Our case went very smoothly from start to finish with a successful result. We feel like we were helped by a Law Firm with only one costumer: us :) We highly recommend this firm for any of your Immigration cases. - Maciej and Agnieszka

Excellent Immigration Attorneys

Mr. Valko and his team did an excellent job with my H-1B extension. They went above and beyond my expectations. My case required the full attention from Mr. Valko and his team given that I had very little time left under my previous H-1B visa. They submitted my LCA in a record time and provided follo...w up information to the USCIS within minutes of their request. Mr. Valko even offered to use some of his personal time to help me with the timely delivery of my H-1B petition. My H-1B extension was granted within the premium processing period. I would like to thank Mr. Valko for his deep interest in my case. I highly recommend the firm Chavez and Valko and look forward to working with them in the future!

knowledgeable, trustworthy and honest attorney

Their professional work definitely exceeded my expectations!!! I was extremely impressed with how well they prepared my husband’s waiver! I had the good fortune of finding Mr. Valko and his staff in my path when I was so discouraged and overwhelmed with my husband’s immigration process. I was refe...rred to Chavez and Valko through a good friend of mine. After 17 months of waiting my husband’s second visa interview was denied. We had gone with a “notario”, a public notary, who had previously worked for Catholic Charities and assured us that he knew how to fill out the forms and prepare the waiver my husband would need if his visa was denied. However, his work was sloppy, careless and unprofessional; consequently the first waiver was denied. The forms were filled out properly but the waiver was nothing more than a two-page letter I wrote trying to explain why my husband should be allowed re-entry into the United States to be with my children and I and a few other letters from close relatives and a couple of friends. I was surprised to meet with Mr. Valko on the first interview. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and courteous. Mr. Valko explained to me how little work and effort had been put into my husband’s previous waiver. He immediately began to analyze my situation and took notes about my current circumstances and started to list many factors I could use in my husband’s I-601 waiver in order to prove the extreme hardships required by immigration. He also explained the importance of having a well-prepared waiver in order for it to be approved on the spot. Mr. Valko along with his legal assistant, Cielo Pineda, guided me through the entire process. They gave me a checklist of evidence I needed to collect and guided me in the process of writing my essay in order to explain with detail the different hardships I was undergoing due to the absence of my husband. We communicated back and forth through e-mail, phone calls and meetings. They reviewed all the documents I had and prepared and amazing waiver. I was surprised to see the end result. The waiver was about 3 inches thick and it was put together very professionally. After 4 months of hard work my husband went for his second waiver interview. IT WAS APPROVED ON THE SPOT!!! Mr. Valko called me personally to give me the great news. I could not believe it. After almost two years of waiting I knew my husband was coming home. My children were going to have their dad and we would be a family again. On June 4th 2010, my husband arrived at the Dallas Love Field Airport. Humbly and from the bottom of my heart, I want to thank Mr. Valko, Cielo Pineda and all the staff at Chavez and Valko for all the hard work they put into my husband’s waiver. I want to thank them for allowing us the opportunity to be a family again and for bringing their dad back to my children. God bless them and their loved ones. Once again from the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, and thank you! I will always recommend them; they are a very trustworthy law firm.
