One of the best Attorney can offer

Before going to the paid consultation with David, I had a few phone calls with a lawyer firm that offered free consultation and was advised that my parents' applications would be a difficult case due to various factors that they deemed high risk. The firm even quoted us a fee of around $7000 to repre...sent us. I wanted to get a second opinion and was referred to David’s firm by a friend. David explained clearly that the issue was not serious or considered high risk for the cases. He quickly double-checked the submitted documents to ensure proper filing, which he said was done very well. There were just a few things that he suggested that should be done to improve the standing with no major concern. It was definitely reassuring for us and a relief from the exaggerated conversation with the other firm that caused much anxiety. It was the most well-spent $250 for a legal consultation, which led me to work with him for my parents’ case.

Thank you for sharing your kind review! Hopefully, this review will help others understand that the best type of advice comes only after an immigration attorney reviews all of the facts/documents/notices from a client/immigration. Thank you again!

The Best Attorney for Immigration

We engaged David Nguyen to help with obtaining a Green card for my wife. I / we can fully recommend and endorse him. Including David we interviewed 4 to 5 different attorneys. Most of which charged for the initial consultation with the exception of David‘s office. With all the attorneys except f...or David we actually just felt like a number and they were just going through the motions, none of them were really encouraging. On the other hand we had a 60 minute free consultation with David which I believe lasted well longer than 60 minutes and he asked in-depth questions got to know us and our situation and not only did we get the feeling that he cared but we were able to leave feeling much more comfortable. Throughout the process any questions that we had were answered immediately and fully. as well as being constantly reassured when we were stressed out that this was the normal process and we shouldn’t worry. We were denied on the first go round of the adjustment of status, that was prior to hiring David. So he explained to us our options and one of them was to refile as well as do an I 601 waiver. The amount of paperwork and the order that it needs to be in I think is greater than any lay man can handle. I honestly believe if we had done this on our own again we would’ve been denied. Additionally, I would not have known where to start without David’s help. In the end our I 485 was approved and my wife got her green card. If I had to do it all over again I would’ve started out with David‘s office in the first place. I can’t stress enough how complex this process is. Far harder than the USCIS And people on the Internet make it out to be. And it’s a big black hole, if you have a question or not sure how to answer something and you’re doing it on your own you just have to guess which could have serious negative results. So we absolutely recommend David and his office for this process and thank him for all his diligent work.

Am forever grateful

I wanted to apply for my citizenship at a time when immigration rules where said to be toughened and a lot of discouraging messages from all around me. The only option I had was to go on but seek the help of a lawyer to help me analyze my case and the ever changing laws. I was referred to David by a ...friend consulted for free and at the end of the consultation I was sold out I knew I was in good hands. Good move, I began filling my documents the same day, good advice , timing was everything as he had mentioned new fees could have been implemented and sure enough it was just after I was done filing. Thanks for keeping me on track and saving me some hard earned money. His staff are equally diligent as their boss they followed up on my case with emails and phone calls whatever it took to get the right documents to get the case filed correctly and in good time they let me know and seeing their commitment I was willing not to let them down. A year later, interview passed, no questions of missing documents everything was well documented and I am now a citizen. It’s a great feeling especially when I didn’t have to worry about the process. A year is a long wait and I was at peace with a trusted lawyer. On referral my friend used the word diligent to describe Mr. David and for sure he has yet again proved himself. I will recommend you to all.

A++ Highly recommended Attorney

Attorney David Nguyen is by far the best attorney i have ever met. He and his entire team are very nice, knowledgeable and professional. From the very first time i contacted him he had worked with me through everything from free consultation to successfully filling my green card petition in less than... a year. He’s been very patient with me Through the entire process. He will always answer email and calls regarding any questions you have any time. He cares a lot about his clients. I am very pleased with the work he has done for me and i can never thank him enough for that. So if you’re on the look for an attorney i highly recommend him. don’t think twice hire him, you will not regret it.

Marriage

I gave Attorney David Nguyen 5 stars because of his remarkable, professional, and quality of work on my husband and I case. Our previous attorney was involved in a marriage fraud scandal and was called to appear before a federal court (plead not guilty). We were so stressful because all of the files ...including ours were seized by the FBI and the Homeland Security for further investigation over our previous attorney (we didn't participant in any activity regarding to the fraud). My husband googled to find a new attorney and we found Attorney David Nguyen on Avvo.com. He was recognized and awarded as one of the 10 Best Immigration Attorneys in Houston (2018 and 2019). My husband saw that Attorney Nguyen will give a free consultation in 10 minutes via phone, so he contacted him and learned more information to get our case settled. Attorney Nguyen helped us to retrieved copies of our submitted file, and helped us to repair well organized documents before our interview which my husband and I were very impressed and satisfied. I received the Green Card after two weeks of the interview. We definitely recommend Attorney Nguyen and we appreciate your fabulous work.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
