Posted by anonymous | December 14, 2017 | Hired Attorney

This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

One of the best immigration attorneys

He handled both my mom and her co'worker's immigration cases. Unlike, the other lawyers they have hired were very tardy and didn't pay close attention to their cases. However, Eric Pavri followed the case thoroughly and kept a keen eye on the their cases. With the help of Eric, they both have their g...reen-cards and have asked me to write a reviewed for them to let him know that they really appreciated his help and dedication that he has put into their cases. I wish he was still working at his prior law firm because I would definately hire him to work on my upcoming immigration case because its very hard to find a lawyer who is that dedicated.

Thank you Eric and Hanes & Bartels

Our only regret is that we didn't come to talk to Eric right from the start. We wasted many months and lots of money trying to do my wife's case ourselves and I felt like punching a wall after getting so many rejection letters back from the government. But from the first meeting Eric made us feel at ...ease, and reassured us that he'd seen the same problems many times before and that he could help us deal with the problems with the forms. Even though it took Eric and his staff two times also (the government sent a letter asking for documents we had already sent them), they stayed on top of it and in the end got it done. And Eric always made sure we understood the whole complicated process. We're planning to use Eric's services now too for my wife's parents. 100% recommend this lawyer.

100% Successful Journey -- Great Advisor

Eric assisted us every step of the way on our 9-month journey to successful Permanent Resident status. He was always accessible by phone or email, and he made after-hours appointments possible to accommodate our schedule. Meetings were efficient and productive, and even entertaining. Eric instill...ed confidence, and reduced anxiety during this stressful process. We have already shared Eric's contact information with friends who may seek Permanent Resident status, and highly recommend him for his professionalism, knowledge, and sense of humor.

Dear Scott and Heike, Our staff and I truly enjoyed working with you and I'm thrilled that we achieved a successful result. And you may be the first people ever to enjoy my terrible jokes!

Trustworthy Lawyer who will give 100% effort!

I had very special scenario where my Immigration classification was wrong resulting in my re-doing the application forms for almost 2 years. Finally after my second I-90 application was rejected I contacted Mr. Pavris's office. Mr Pavri assisted me in re-filling the I-90 application. Accompanied me t...o the Denver USCIS office in an info pass appointment and helped me in getting an I-551 with correct classification, which finally helped me in getting my Green card! My Green card with 10 year expiration date arrived in the mail last week! Mr Pavri also worked with me on the financial side and gave me an affordable rate . Next year it will be 5 years in America! I look forward to working with Mr. Pavri for my naturalization Petition.

Fast Immigration Services

Last year i came across this outstanding man and his staff. I contacted his office through email. At first i was nervous i did not know what to expect. His staff responded fast and made me feel at ease. To me i think the staff is what gives the company a name. And let me tell you that every time i sh...owed up they made me feel like part of the team. He helped me become a U. S Citizen in matter of weeks that's how fast they are. I am in the military and i do have a clean record so that did helped a lot. I am not going to go through my whole story. But if you need a good lawyer this is the guy you want to get. His services are great and he would do anything he can to get you good results. Give them a call and find out for yourself. This guys are true professionals.
