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!

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.

I contacted the law office of Chavez & Valko recently regarding my long pending Green Card case. After exhausting all my options I am glad I went to Mr. Valko. My case was approved within 3 months after contacting them. Martin Valko and Gary Frost are very professional and friendly to work with. I h...ighly recommend them for all your immigration needs.

I would like to say that Chavez & Valko, LLP law firm is extremely thorough and I had a wonderful time working with attorney Valko and his staff. With my husband being away in the military I would say I had no worries because all documentation was well prepared for the case at the day of the intervie...w. I would also like to thank paralegal Anya for such a wonderful job and attorney Gary for representing the firm on the day of my interview. Thank you once again.
