Great value, great personality, very professional.

At my first consultation mr. Hazany explained my case and how everything works faster and 70% more clear then the attorney who I've had consultation before. Leon defiantly knows what his doing and he's really good at this, I didn't even think of trying somebody else after that first consultation, he... was able to explain some important law terminolagy in simple average people(immigrant) language. The process is simple and exiting. If you follow his instructions you are going to sucseed in your case, that's what I've learned on my personal experience! Defiantly going to use mr. Hazany's service in next two years. Thank you.

I most sincerely recommend Mr. Hazany.

I had experienced continuous problems with the US Immigration in attempting to get my green card. It seemed to be a hopeless nightmare that would never end. I contacted and met with Mr. Leon Hazany and explained the problem. He was very understanding of my situation and assured me that there was ...no reason that should prevent me from obtaining my green card. He was very clear on the steps that would have to be taken to solve the problem. Everything went very smoothly in working with Mr. Hazany. He submitted all the necessary documents in a very professional and expedient manner. After a relatively short time, I received notice that I would be getting my green card. After getting my green card, Mr. Hazany encouraged me to move forward and apply for my citizenship. He provided me with the information needed to obtain the materials to prepare for the required exam. Before taking the exam, I met with Mr. Hazany and he tutored me by asking me questions that I would be tested on. On the day of my interview and exam, Mr. Hazany was so gracious as to come to the USCIS office and sat with me while waiting to be interviewed and to take my exam. He helped me to relax and gave me confidence. I was able to complete my interview and exam successfully. I have Mr. Hazany to thank for helping me to achieve my citizenship into the US. I am forever thankful to this very kind man. I most sincerely recommend Mr. Hazany.

Excellent Experience and Highly Recommended

In March 2011 my wife and I decided to hire Leon Hazany as our attorney to help us with our immigration case. From our initial consultation, we decided he was the right attorney to represent us. Leon discovered a detail on the first day. A detail that had been overlooked by other attorneys. After we ...agreed to hire him, he immediately explained to us the entire process and what to expect. We filed for permanent residency and work permit based on marriage to an American citizen on March 17, 2011. The work permit was granted on June 7, 2011. On August 17, 2011, we had our interview. Leon accompanied us, and was thoroughly prepared. After 20 minutes, I was granted Conditional Permanent Residency. Leon was very professional throughout the entire process. We could always rely on Leon answering questions or concerns in detail and promptly. He was very respectful, understanding, supportive and friendly. Whenever we met with him, we never felt rushed. The same experience can be said of his staff. They were always polite and inviting. After 20 years of being in limbo, and not knowing what my future would be like, I could not be happier with my decision to hire Leon. I am now able to visit my sister after 20 years of separation. He is a top notch lawyer. I would hire him again without hesitation, and would highly recommend his firm to anyone. Thank you, Leon!

Superb immigration legal services!

I've been in the US for 6 years on a foreigner visa, and have dealt with all kinds of immigration issues. Leon Hazany is one of the best lawyers I've ever worked with. He truly cared about my case and situation, and always delivered excellent quality of work. He's experienced, knowledgeable and ha...rd-working, and offered a lot of valuable insights to my case that I didn't usually find in other lawyers' services. What's more, his professionalism made me feel so much more confident and powerful in winning my case. I 100% recommend him to anyone who needs immigration legal services!
