Permanent Status with no work, money, investment or court

Sorry Avvo I give Mr. Nabil Chelico a rating a of 10, just for being a human first then a Lawyer, ( very rare in a busy fast city like Los Angeles). He is quit the professional lawyer who underline this DOES NOT ABUSE his power of knowledge and expertise in the complex field of immigration and crim...inal law and where some legal firms abuse the critical need and situation of their clients. Mr Nabil was courteous, discreet, very informative, and an expert in his upfront due diligence, which most immigration lawyers intentionally leave out with plans to get more money from you by prolonging your case thus charging more money, and they could care less if you get your case resolved even with the best case scenarios. I recommend him for kind of immigration visas, investment and non investment, because the success of your case has a lot to do with the character and reputation that represents yours to the government of new country which more cases than none is a desperate cry than an added luxury. Mr Nabil I am always grateful to your unmatched professionalism and intelligence.

Atty. Chelico a highly recommended Lawyer.

Atty. Chelico did what most lawyers often do, fight and hopefully win your case. What sets him apart though is his approach. He treats you more like a personal friend. He is very honest and very approachable. We even met late nights and even weekends. Atty. wouldn't give you false hopes. If there' a ...problem, he'll tell you right away and find a solution for it instead of making excuses. I met with 5 lawyers regarding my case,"downgrading my felony case to a misdemeanor for immigration purposes". The other lawyers were either arrogant and wanted too much or made me felt hopeless. Atty. Chelico was neither. He told me exactly what needs to be done. We have to take it 1 step at a time and that there is no quick and easy solution for it. But it can be done with patience and trust. He wasn't a know it all kind of lawyer, but he is very very good at his specialty, which is giving people like me a second chance.We did win our case and thanks to him I now have better days ahead of me. It's not over yet, that was just our 1st step and you can bet that he's gonna be beside me every step of the way. In terms of what he charges, let's just say Atty. Chelico is worth every hard earned dollar and more. If your definition of a good lawyer is trustworthy,precise in defining your necessary steps, easily accessible and truthful then he is your best choice. Like I said I met at least 5 others, and I know he was the one to help me the moment he started talking about solutions rather than arrogant over confident statements.
