I started working with Mr. Valko about a year and a half ago. It was a very long process and I was surprised at how patient everyone was with me throughout all that time. Even when my case was put on hold and the whole process was slowed down even more. Everyone who worked on my case was very knowled...geable and friendly. All my questions were always answered quickly and clearly. I strongly recommend their services to anyone.

I had heard all sorts of stories about how attorneys can make your problems worse and I was very apprehensive in the beginning when I handed over my case to Chavez & Valko. However, very soon all fears were gone when I started interacting with Mr. Valko and his staff. My case was handled by Mr. Valko... and his crew very skillfully, considering the significance of time and deadlines. The best part about their law firm is the attorney himself is very approachable, well informed and involved in your case, unlike other law firms where paralegals handle everything and it takes a lot to approach an attorney. I think it was the best decision to hire Mr. Valko for my case; I couldn’t have got a better attorney. Thanks to Mr. Valko and his entire crew for giving me a pleasant and smooth legal experience along with a successful outcome of my case. I would strongly recommend Chavez and Valko legal firm to everybody if you are thinking of hiring an immigration attorney. Good Luck!

Words cannot express my gratitude to Mr Valko and the entire team at Chavez & Valko. As far as immigration goes, my case was a unique one that seemed virtually impossible to address. I won the Diversity Visa Lottery and was already in the U.S on a visitor’s visa. After following the necessary r...ules and procedures, as well as determining eligibility, I filed an adjustment of status application to get the green card without any legal representation. Unfortunately for me, after an interview and a 6 month wait, my application to adjust status was denied with only a month and a half left to go before the 2011 green card lottery eligibility period expired. To say all hell broke loose would be an understatement! I was immediately placed in removal/deportation proceedings and advised by 3 other lawyers I consulted that any & all hope was lost! After doing some research on highly recommended lawyers and as a last ditch effort, I made an appointment to see Mr Valko. He was refreshingly honest and candid about my options and how any choices I made would affect my immigration status, especially considering that time was of the essence in my case. My first impression of him was that apart from being well versed in all the legal matters, he was also very refreshingly upfront and honest about everything pertaining to my case. I immediately decided to go with him and his team and followed their expertise and guidance. A paralegal, Jessica, was assigned to my case, she was very efficient and always courteous in addressing all of my concerns and questions. Mr Valko worked extremely fast to ensure I could schedule another interview at the embassy in my home country even before I departed from the U.S. He was able to directly contact the appropriate authorities and gave me updates on any progress being made on my case. In a matter of days, he had an interview scheduled for me at the U.S embassy in my home country. I followed his legal advice and returned home. I was anxious and had many concerns but all along the way, the team at Chavez & Valko were there to check that everything was going smoothly and that my concerns were addressed promptly. They stayed in constant communication with me even while I was abroad. They definitely went above and beyond all expectations. Within 3 weeks of my first meeting with Mr Valko, I went to the interview at the U.S embassy. Within a matter of hours, my green card application was approved and an immigrant visa was placed in my passport ready for collection the very next day!! Needless to say, Mr Valko, Jessica, and everyone I worked with at Chavez & Valko have my undying gratitude! Their entire team, from the receptionist to Mr Valko himself, not only addressed the legal side of my concerns but they were also kind and treated me humanely and were always available. They were all professional, very knowledgeable and answered all my questions, some even before I asked them! I am forever indebted to Mr Valko and his team. If ever you need a lawyer with unsurpassed expertise and compassion, this firm is where you need to go. They can handle even the most difficult or unusual cases and I highly recommend them. A special thank you to Mr Valko and Jessica, they are quite simply the very best!!
