Stacy Eva Tolchin

I was on ICE deportation proceeding since 2005 and I was looking for a lawyer to help me. After talking to a few, I went with Stacy because of her experience in the court room. She referred me to an attorney who specializes in Appeals to reopen my criminal case. Anthony the appeal lawyer got me a re-...plead deal to a non aggravated felony which gave stacy something to work with. Stacy then got my deportation case reopened.. long story short. We beat the case and I applied for my citizenship. Got my citizenship drive through style because of Covid-19. And I owe it all to stacy. She gave me a 2nd chance at life. Giving me the opportunity to raise my daughter and provide for wife. I cannot thank you enough, you change my life for the better.

Stacy is an amazing attorney whose work literally made the difference between succeeding or failing in our immigration case. My wife and I had been dealing with a complex immigration problem for a couple years. We were already working with a lawyer who, although diligent and competent, didn't quit...e have the experience necessary to tackle the thorny issues presented by the facts of our case. Desperate to find a solution, I went on a search mission to find a lawyer who can see our case all the way to the end, possibly even litigating the matter. By the time we spoke with Stacy, we had already consulted with several other lawyers. From the very first meeting, Stacy was different. She showed the perfect combination of empathy, passion, and most importantly, the legal knowledge, experience, and skill that gave us a healthy measure of assurance that we hadn't felt with any other lawyer. I walked out of that first meeting with a peace of mind that I hadn't felt since our ordeal began. This doesn't mean she'll blindly promise you results; no honest attorney can ever guarantee you anything. Stacy is honest about the realities of your case. It's just that because of her knowledge and experience, that "reality" can be measurably rosier than what other lawyers can muster. Of course, talk is cheap. But Stacy not only talks the talk, but also walks the walk. There's nothing more powerful than words of knowledge and confidence backed up by actual work and results. And she was the living embodiment of this power. Throughout multiple communications and meetings following our initial consultation, she listened attentively to our story and shaped the best legal strategy possible according to our needs. She put in the necessary hours (you won't believe the thickness of the packet she submitted to USCIS on our behalf) with a dogged determination to ensure that USCIS will see the truth. The sense of her supreme legal expertise that I got during our first meeting was borne out in real life as I witnessed our steady march towards a successful outcome. Other reviews can attest to Stacy's knowledge, experience, and skill. But merely describing those three attributes doesn't fully capture the value of her legal work. So I'll touch on what sets her apart even more. Stacy is thorough. Her expertise is amplified even more by her thoroughness. She leaves no stone unturned, and in one instance, her suggestion that we locate some old documents from a source we weren't even thinking of netted us a critical piece of evidence that further bolstered our chance of success. Stacy is resourceful. The type of research she conducted on our behalf can only be done by someone who is able to think outside the box. Every little advantage matters in an immigration case, and she is great at uncovering helpful facts from places an average lawyer normally wouldn't look. Stacy is a passionate advocate. Having a smart lawyer in your corner might not be enough if that lawyer doesn't advocate for you passionately. In that regard, Stacy represented us with a passion rarely seen in lawyers today. When she accompanied us to a hearing, she was a fierce advocate for our cause. She pulled no punches, and made piercing oral arguments at every turn. Fast forward to just earlier this month: Stacy's expertise and hard work have resulted in the best outcome possible, so my wife will be going in for her naturalization oath ceremony soon. We can't thank Stacy enough for everything. Coming from a legal background myself, I don't indulge in hyperbole. And that's the thing: none of the above is an exaggeration. Stacy deserves every bit of the praise in this review as well as all the other reviews. Immigration law is a field that has an unimaginable level of substantive consequences for the people going through the system. With so much at stake, anyone looking for an immigration attorney should hire the very best that they can find. And that's Stacy.

For years I went to immigration lawyers, explaining my situation and was told by no less than 10 lawyers "there is nothing we can do for you, go home and stay out of trouble" until I was referred to Stacy Tolchin and when I laid out my case to her she said "oh, you're a Ledezma case, no problem" I wa...s SHOCKED, I had never heard that before, but I put all my faith in her and here I am today going to my oath ceremony next week. She knew more than 10 lawyers. THANK YOU STACY! -The Buchanan family.

In any immigration case that you’ll encounter in your life you better not do it alone, GET A LAWYER AS GOOD AS STACY TOLCHIN! I have learned it in a hard way, got denied multiple times. In 2015, I met an outstanding lawyer, and that is Stacy Tolchin and her team. Her team went a...bove and beyond with my case and my late husband ’s. I have a very complicated case, and USCIS thought that my relationship with my late husband was a fraud and wasn't a bona fide marriage. We initially filed our case back in 2012 and met different lawyers, who merely wanted money or experience. Moreover, my late husband filed Form I-130 three to four times, repetitively denied, another one was approved, re-opened and USCIS intended to deny our case again. Furthermore, when I met Stacy, I was on removal proceedings, and she’s successfully battled the case and had the removal proceeding terminated. Today is a remarkable day for my kids, I, and my late husband; and for sure his soul will be at peace. Not only impressive, but Stacy gave light to our future. Because of Stacy’s expertise, she successfully convinced and sufficiently provided evidence that my late husband’s and I marriage was a bona fide one. Today, they have converted the Form-I-130 to I-360. I got approved! The officer subjectively mentioned that he would approve my case my Form-I485, once they receive my medical exam. My case was a complicated case; we’ve been battling to get approval for six years. Stacy sufficiently supplemented every concern that the USCIS have. Further, every time I talk to her, she makes me feel that everything will be ok, will pour confidence in me, and will lift my self-esteem. She always has answers to all my queries. I want to thank you for all your help, I know it is not over yet, but today we found our silver lining. I highly recommend Stacy Tolchin and her team special mention to Yadira who went above and beyond as well. Stacy's team is so professional with outstanding performance. They will fight for you until the end, and they are the experts in complicated cases. Nothing is impossible with Stacy’s intelligence and ability! She will be my forever immigration lawyer! I love you, Stacy Tolchin! Cristina V.
