The Best Immigration Lawyer in Los Angeles

I met with a host of immigration lawyers across the city, from large bluechip corporate firms to individuals in plush offices in Century City. Then I met Neil and his small but incredibly capable team on South Beverly Drive. The entire process was an absolute dream, everything was done in good ti...me, they handled all the forms and Neil comes along to the Green Card hearing with you (and EVERY staff-member at the USCIS at the there seems to know him by name and has a good relationship with him). He does not 'sell' you he tells you exactly how the process will work and any positives or red flags on your profile, his team follow up and make sure you have all the right documentation so when you go in for your interview it almost seems as if it's just a final check before you get told you're approved. Highly recommend him and his team, you will not be disappointed.

Knowledgeable, professional, expert

Expertise in immigration law and procedures, being extremely well connected, displaying professionalism at all times, being knowledgeable and having a kind demeanor all contribute to Neil's five star rating. The office support staff are similarly professional, efficient and responsive. From the fir...st emails and phone calls, Neil and the team expertly provide information and guidance with complete and expeditious responses. Our case proceeded exactly as described and concluded successfully. We owe a huge round of thanks to Neil and the staff and highly recommend his services.

"I have know Neil Sheff for nearly 10 years. I have referred numerous clients with immigration needs to his offices. All of the clients I have referred always informed me that the was professional and courteous and that his prices were fair and reasonable. In my criminal practice I often consult with Neil in regards to immigration issues that may affect the underlying criminal prosecution. I have always found him to be extremely knowledgeable and creative in the area of immigration. If I had a family member with immigration needs I would send them to Neil."

"I endorse this lawyer's work. I called him up regarding an urgent immigration question regarding the Los Angeles district CIS office. Neil was helpful and courteous beyond the call of mere collegiality. He clearly knew his way around the LA CIS District Office, and equally impressively, was more than happy to help out a fellow AILA colleague in resolving an important issue."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
