Martin Valko is an angle for my family. My husband got his deportation 2 years back in december just before christmas i think it was the 18th or 19th. Think about it. A deportation letter just before christmas :-( . It looked liked some one had pulled off our lives from us. We had no whwre to go at a...ll. Before this happened another attorney was handling my case. My husband entered the USA from Canada and that lawyer assured me that his case would be setteled and he will sure get a GREEN CARD. Well it did not happen that way. I was dealing with him for almost 2 years and paid all his fees as well. When his work permit got issiued we were very happy and thought that everything will be fine but that was not the case. #yers back he renewed my husband's work permit and as soon as we got it we got a denial letter from the uscis stating that my husband was in a deportation case and he has to leave the country. We were really upset and no where to go at all. When i went to my lawyer instead of helping me he gave up and said he did not take deprotation cases. Think about it.... your lawyer gives up when you need him the most. He gave us the number of another attorney and said to go to him. he did not even realise how upset we were and he was the one responsible for our families future. But all he did was reffering some one else. Our christmas became a nitemare. Think about it with a 5 year old daughter how were we feeling. Luckyly i found Mr Valko on rradio and over the internet. I made an appointment with him the same day and went to his office. As soon as i reached there his staff knowing my situation calmed us down and was very helpfull. As soon as Mr Valko came he made a call to the court just to make sure that my husband's case was still active and you know what we found out ... we found out that my husband's case was not yet decided and we can fight over it. Mr Valko navigated me thorugh the process and told me that he will renew my husband's work permit again with no extra fees to the uscis and he did so. That was the 1st achivement he made towrd's our case. "He also told me that he will fight my case with honestly and dignity and so he did. My husband's work permit was renewed with no problems. Then we again appealed for his green card. The uscis called us for the interview and they were with us there all the time. and finally 2 yers back my husband's green card was approves and now we are safe and happy here in the USA. One thing i want everybody to know. " Martin Valko and his team was always there for me. Whenever we needed him he was there personally and helped me in all the prceddings. I cannot explain how wonderfull he is and how gratefull we are that we found him. HE is the one who's hard work and honesty is a firm result that we are present today in the USA.

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!

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.
