Horrible experience!

Do not waste your money! No tires tu dinero con su estafa!! -On May 27th 2016 after we paid the $4000, Stephanie welcomed us as “new clients.” -On May 30th 2016 the questionnaires G-28 and I-212 were sent to us. The forms received were incorrect. Had to remind them what the original agreement ...was. -On June 3rd 2016 the questionnaires G-** and I-1** were sent. Information had to be verified. -On August 16th 2016 the “actual form I-1**” was sent. Then documents requested were sent. Did not get a response so an email was sent to make sure the documents were received. On Sept 2nd, I received an apology email stating the documents are with the attorney. -On October 5th 2016 an email was sent to us requesting supporting documents need to be translated to English. -Beginning of 2017 I requested information regarding my case at the beginning of 2017. No answer. -On May 3rd I requested the information again. No answer. -May 8th requested the information again. No answer. -May 19th requested the information again. No answer. -May 29 sent another email. “May 1st I sent an email regarding information needed. After that, I sent two more to make sure you got the emails and 29 days later I still don't know anything.” As per your response “We already spoke with your fiance more thay a month ago that we can schedule a phone call with you to answer all your concerns. But we didn't hear from you neither him.” Yet, my emails were sent after that conversation. I just needed the information requested to continue with the procedure. -Because I sent another email requesting the information I received this email, “We need to schedule a phone call.” Same day I sent an email providing my availability: “Alright, I only have 1-2 Tuesday or Thursday or 12-1 q-2 Wednesday and Friday. Other than that I can do it after 4 pm. What would be best?” After that I did not get a response. Sent 6 emails regarding my availability and none were answered. -August 22 2017 we finally had a phone call appointment. They blamed me for not sending or knowing how to send an email. Yet, I CC myself and my partner in every single email and we DID receive the emails. Then, they try to say it was my internet or computer. I had to explain that I have a computer with internet services at work, home and I also have a phone with data service. Pathetic! At the end they agreed they will review the case and reimburse me whatever they though it was appropriate. Needless to say, they charged $3,100 for sending me back the information I sent them and ignore me the whole time. What they did was just pathetic. As per them, all paperwork was completed yet.... 1. I am not from El Salvador 2. I do not live in Seoul, South Korea 3. Nor have I been in trouble with the law in Houston. I'm posting pictures in Google maps. Hope it helps.

Don't waste your money and time with them.

I hired them a year a go. They kept lying me that they were working on my case. Today, I got my denial letter, which proves that they did NOT do anything for my case. Don't waste your money and time with them.

Horrible

Hired him. He is very incompetent. Filed the wrong paperwork yet collected huge amounts of money from us. Will not call the client. Do not use him. Look for someone else if your case is important to you.

Immigration Case

We hired Mr. Patrick on 07/02/15. We found this "practice" on his website with his "partner" Nassir Qureshi. Nassir presented himself as a lawyer to me when we spoke. Come to find out he is not a lawyer at all. Anyway so we hired these people in July of 2015. We didn't get called into the office to... fill out our forms until November of 2015. Everytime we called Nassir couldn't give is a straight answer as to how far they were in our case. I made a porfolio with personal information they were gonna need. It was very well organized basically made their jobs easy to prepare our case. That portfolio was never EVER touched. We finnaly became Fed up in 03/18/16 with the run arrounds and fired this "practice" because this day we scheduled and appoinment with Nassir and convinietly he had an "emergency" and cancelled our appointment. I went to pick up my file and noticed it was not opened once. According to Mr. Patrick all the forms were ready and filed yet the NVC had no recolection of these people at ALL. If we had not taken action our case would have expired in JULY 2016 and we would have had to start from zero... Now we are asking for a refund and they had the audacity to say we will not get a refund because they have all the forms filled out. Yet they say on those forms for 8 months never called to tell us what they needed from us or what is the next step. They totally dropped the ball yet want to keep our hard earned money. It's a disgrace!!! I will seek legal action on this matter I will not be taken advantage of. I suffer from horrific anxiety and these people have made it worst. I had to get on more meds because of this. I will seek emotional distress aswell. They reffused to give me my $2,000 it will now cost them more! I have all the proof of emails text messages and phone records. This will not be left in the back burner like our case was.

Money hungry so called lawyer!

This guy is a joke! Whatever you do, do not hire this guy because the only thing he will do is take your money. My sister found this guy somehow and hired him to represent my brother. Out of three months that he represented my brother he only went to see him one time which was the day before his last... court date. Each time he went to court the judge would have to tell him which forms to fill out and how to do his job. In court he barely even said anything it was more like my brother was representing himself. The judge would ask questions and this guy just sat there like he didn't know what was going on so my brother had to do his best to try and answer to the judge. He never once called us unless it was to ask for money. One time my brother had court and this guy didn't show up or even send anyone else in his place.
