Vinesh Patel

We had Mr. Vinesh Patel's law firm, represent for a USCIS petition. Our experience was very good through out the process. * Before petitioning: Very thoroughly analyzed the petition circumstances. Mr. Patel himself spoke to us after data gathering. * During petition processing: clarified doubts ti...mely; even physically came with us to the USCIS office; follow up was very thorough * Every step was explained well, never pressured. *Team: attorneys Mr.Patel, Ms. Barbie; staff Sindy, Victoria, Melissa, Veronica, Sarah, Meghan, Gabriela are all a well oiled, knowledgeable team. Would recommend them with no reservations.

My family hired Mr. Patel for an immigration case dealing with my father. We are very grateful with all the hard work he did for us. Mr. Patel and his staff made the process very easy and they were very patient to work with us. His staff was always available and willing to help and explain anytime we... called or visited his office. There was always a prompt response from him or his staff weather it was from an email or a phone call. We appreciate that they were always very detailed and always kept us informed on my father's case. I like that he was able to meet with me in person and from the first meeting he knew what had to be done and also covered the obstacles of what could happened. Even with that he already had a 2nd plan in mind in case the 1st one might of not worked due various circumstances. I was very impressed on how fast he was able to resolved my father's case and how it all worked in our favor. Mr. Patel is very professional and well educated. We came to him when we most needed answers, aid, and guidance and I met with him, I left it all in his hands and hoped for the best. I can really say that we made a great choice on hiring him because that's exactly what happened we left it all on his hands and he gave us nothing but great results in such a short time. Working with him was a great experience. We highly recommend him and we will definitely refer him to anyone in need of his services!

I went to The Vinesh Patel Law Firm to consult with the attorney in regards to my mother's case. My mother has no status and and been here for 20+ years. I wanted to see if she could somehow get her green card. From the very first meeting with Mr. Patel I could tell that he was different, he actually... cared about my mother's situation and was going to try his best to explore all possibilities on her case. After he collected all the information he needed from my mother, he decided that there was a possibility for her to obtain legal status. We informed Mr. Patel that our financial status was not great and that was when he decided to take on my mother's case for free. The law firm began work on the case soon after we met with Mr. Patel. My mother did have to collect lots of evidence that was needed for the case but it was explained to us by the assistant that it was very important for us to gather everything that was requested. My mother's application was them submitted to the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services for review. After a few months we found out that the application had been approved. Soon after that my mother received her work permit, and now we are just waiting on her visa petition to become current in order to apply for her green card. Mr. Patel along with his staff were wonderful. We will forever be indebted with him. He has changed our lives. It is because of him that my mother no longer needs to worry about one day being deported and being taken from us.

Vinesh Patel was my attorney while I was in Immigration jail in Pearsall TX in July 2011. He is a young, well spoken lawyer of Inidan decent. First impression was great,( that’s the catch) he looks like a guy who can defend you in court . He charged me $2500, leaving me responcible for paperwork. Out...come was disaster. San Antonio immigration court system has a group of „insider lawyers“ who know all the judges and prosecutors as they have been in that system for decade and plus. In the end of the day it is all about personal relationships. Vinesh Patel is from Dallas, he is outsider, plus he is young attorney who is not connected. So he was standing there in front of judge Carte being lectured like a schoolboy . Guy could not say one clear sentence to defend his client! He had zero contact with DEA as well which usually is a bad sign. Let`s be honest –every lawyer is measured by his performance in court. It was a bond hearing and ended up with record high $150 000 bond ( Immigration bond you have to pay in full) . I am confident that I would have gotten lower bond if I was there by myself that day. After the court mr. Patel annonced that his services are now over. He pocketed $2500 and did next to nothing to help his client. I found out that mr. Patel had a conflict with the judge Carte during his earlier practice, yet he took the money anyway knowing perfectly well that it`s gonna hurt his client . In fact in caused me 9 month long imprisonment with my legal entry and 9 year long clean criminal record in US. I appealed courts desicion myself and Board of Immigration Appeals in Virginia where in was concluded to be erroneous! It took a long time during wich time I remained in jail. My conclusion here is: If you care about your loved ones who are locked up in Pearsall or somewhere else in South Texas, do not hire Vinesh Patel.
