Highly Recommendable Lawyer

I first contacted Mr. Valko in regards to information on the H-1B visa. Mr. Valko was very knowledgeable, clear in his explanations and trustworthy. My company hired a different attorney to file the H-1B petition, but some important lingering questions remained unanswered. I came back to see Mr. Val...ko to have these questions answered. I will not hesitate to turn to him for an advise nor will I hesitate to hire him as a lawyer if I need to. In addition both the secretary and the paralegal assistant are very professional, helpful and efficient. I strongly recommend attorney Martin Valko and his firm.

Mr. Valko - Competent and Trustworthy Lawyer

I am very satisfied for the service provided by Mr. Valko and his team. They helped me to obtain the H1b visa. This year, it was expected that the lottery would be held for H1b petitions. So, it was very important to submit a petition on the first week of the application opening (staring April 1st).... However, due to some circumstance, I had to ask a lawyer to prepare my visa petition less than two weeks before the opening day. And, I never hesitated to choose Mr. Valko and his team to handle my petition. Last year, I consulted him a few times over phone regarding my questions on visa application, and I was impressed with his expertise in the immigrant law. Also, he has been very friendly and sincere throughout our communications. I knew I could trust him and his guidance. And, thanks to him and his team, my petition was prepared competently and submitted in timely manner (*reached on the opening date) and approved without any request from the immigrant office for additional documentations/evidences. Also, I appreciated that he responded to my email inquiries very quickly when I needed most. If you are looking for a lawyer for handling your H1b visa (or any other visa), I highly recommend Mr. Valko and his team.

Recommended immigration attorney

Higly recommended immigration attorney. Knowledgeable and trustworthy. I met with Martin Valko personally and he consulted me in regards to my I-751 removal of conditions on my conditional green card and I got approved in about 6 months. Overall, I am very satisfied with the services provided.

Mr. Valko made USCIS reverse its denial and apologize to me!

It takes a long time to nurture and work towards a dream and a few minutes to shatter. This is pretty much what happened in my case. I grew up with a dream of settling down in this wonderful country as a young child and I pursued this dream further with my application of employment based green car...d. I ensured that all my I’s were dotted and T’s crossed when I switched employments and still was rewarded by an undated letter from immigration services stating that my application was denied. It was god’s blessing that I heard of Mr. Valko and his firm from a friend of mine. To say they were my knights in shining armor would be an understatement. The team was very patient with my persistent (and sometime repeated) emails and usually responded within a couple of hours of my query. With a lot of free advices that I was receiving from friends and colleagues on how I should be leaving the country asap, Mr. Valko helped me understand on how this would be a terrible waste of resources. He was always a step ahead on this game and knew the when, why and how in my situation. He not only made USCIS reverse their decision, but he also made them apologize. There is no other person or firm I would ever turn to in an event of need and their professionalism is something I aspire to emulate.

Best immigration lawyer!!

We would like to thank Mr. Valko and his paralegal, Jessica for their help and hard work. My husband is from Mexico and has been here since he was eight years old. Originally, we contacted Mr. Valko's office to help my husband get a visa. In the meantime, the new Deferred Action came out and Mr. Valk...o suggested that we go this route since it appeared that my husband met the criteria. Immigration received my husband's application for Deferred Action in September 2012, he went to his biometrics appointment in mid-October 2012, received an approval notification in mid-November 2012 and three days letter received his work permit in the mail. Now, he has his Social Security card and driver license. No more worries that my husband will go to work one day and not return home because he was picked up by immigration. Again, we are so thankful and appreciative for the great work Mr. Valko and Jessica have done for us. They always return your call or email very quickly and you don't always get that kind of service from attorney's offices. Mr. Valko exuded confidence in our case and his expertise and that in turn eased our minds a great deal. We felt like we were treated as human beings by people who cared about our situation. There is still more to do and we will stay with Mr. Valko because we can trust him. If he can help you, then he will. If he cannot help you, he will be honest and tell you so. If you have any immigration issues, this is the office to go to. We have recommended Mr. Valko to other family, our friends and strangers that we have heard are in need of immigration assistance.
