Professional and Intelligent

Mr. Formica was very professional, well prepared and eager to help with my legal issues. As a part of my case, there were several complicated matters that he negotiated perfectly. Since then, I regularly call him for legal advice and he is always willing to listen and adivse. He is an excellent lawye...r and I would highly recommend using him now and in the future.

Such an Amazing Legal Team

I had met with quite a few lawyers in the past few years and we didn't get anywhere. When we were about to give up, someone recommended that I call Stefano. It happened to be on a Saturday morning and Stefano answered and spend a while on the phone hearing my whole story. Even though his schedule ...was booked over a month in advance, he urged me to come in that Monday so he could get started. He has been a huge relief in our legal battle and for the first time, we are looking forward to brighter days. Stefano was very attentive to our needs, kept the utmost professionalism and was honest from day one. His office staff were extremely welcoming and helped spread ease over a very stressed family.

Very Professional and Speedy Service

Attorney Stefano Formica handled my case professionaly and guided me throughout the permanent residence process with patience. He provided me with all the required information and gave me much encouragement. Attorney Formica listened to me very intently and then he explained me in great detail wh...at was my situation and what were my options. His staff was always very respectful and kept me updated with the status of my case. Attorney Formica's performance exceeded all my expectations. Everything went the way he said it would and I felt completely confident throughout the entire process of filing for my US residency. I would be more than glad to use him again if I had to and will not hesitate to reccomend him to all my friends and family in case they need assistance with Immigration matters. Thank you Mr. Formica for all your help!!!

Reliable, knowledgable and confident

In a case revolving my father's business and the lease agreed upon for a 10 year term which the landlord is now denying and preventing a sale of the business, Mr. Formica reviewed all documents, emails and letters in a timely manner, much shorter than we expected, and had us in the office with in day...s to discuss our options. He was truthful about the case, was frank with us on both sides and informed us of the benefits that would come from going one way or another. He was consultative with us about the happenings of our case, but most importantly, he was honorable and confident in his interactions between me and my Father and I will absolutely be using Mr. Formica for any future cases that I may have and only recommend him to my closest friends and family.
