Thank you so much for helping us start the next chapter in our lives.

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 ...referred 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. Once again, thank you for taking your precious time out of your day – please know that we greatly appreciate you doing so.

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.

Our sincere thanks goes to Mr. Martin Valko, his paralegal Anya and the Law office of Chavez & Valko, LLP for providing an exceptional representation for my wife Ladan and I in our immigration case. We retained the Mr. Valko in September of 2008 to apply for a K-1 Visa and since that time we have rec...eived an excellent service. The K-1 process completed smoothly and in accordance to the time frame that we were provided. Mr. Valko even made sure to prepare Ladan for her consulate interview in Turkey and was extremely comforting to both of us. Upon Ladan’s arrival to the States, Mr. Valko applied for her Adjustment of Status (I-485). With much of our surprise, Ladan received her green card in approximately two months from the time we applied. During the entire immigration process, Mr. Valko and Anya made sure that all of our documentation were completed and submitted in accordance to USCIS requirements. Further, what impressed us the most was the fact that Law Office was constantly and promptly available to us in response to any issues, questions, or comments we had. They went above and beyond the call of duty. Ladan and I are grateful of their assistance in bringing us together to start a new life as husband and wife.
