      Review Robert D'Andrea

      A lawyer truly cares about you and helps you with his best

      Posted by

      In the past 4 years, Robert helped me with all my H1B application, H1B extension & transfer and green card application, and I want to say that I'm so lucky to have such a professional and reliable man to help me with my cases. My cases were hard because of the scale and situation of my company and we did met a lot of challenge during the process. I even got 2nd RFE for my H1B application. But Robert was very conscientious and tried a lot of different approach to help me get out of the dilemma. Now, my H1B cases were succeed and green card application is right on track. Can't thank Robert enough for that!

      D'Andrea Law Office is outstanding. My sister and I had a unique case, which we thought was hopeless. Now we have our green cards, 2 years after we met with Mr. D'Andrea. Susu was very accommodating with our questions, and very effective explaining the process to us. Aileen was very helpful, as well. I cannot stress enough their kindness to us.

      Excellent and Trustable Lawyer

      Robert helped me file my NIW case and it just got approved even without RFE. Their staff are friendly and very positive to respond any of your concerns. The piece I love most when dealing my case with him is that he actually filed a case specifically for myself, rather than using an existing "template". My friend recommends D'Andrea Law to me when I started my case, and now I would definitely recommend them to anybody who have a need to file the immigration case. They will never make you down.

      Posted by

      We are very extremely grateful to the Atty Robert, Atty Susu and Aileen. They took us through all the process step by step with extreme professionalism service. Today we got our green card... just 2 years. They are the expert when it comes to immigration and they really know what they are doing. The fee is very reasonable. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts Atty Robert and your amazing team!!

      Excellent Lawyer for your Immigration needs

      Posted by

      Atty. D'Andrea processed my family's permanent residency through employee based and everything went on smoothly, although we had an RFE after he filed my I-140 but he handled the RFE professionally and after submitting the documents it was approved in 15 days. If I had to do this process all over again, I will definitely hire Atty. D'Andrea again. I will highly recommend his service to my friends and to other family members.

      Excellent Immigration Lawyer

      Posted by

      My husband and I are clients of Robert K. DAndrea. He is the most knowledgeable and credible immigration lawyer you could hope to have! Because of Robert’s expertise, we were able to get the I-130 Petition for Alien Relative approved, the I-601A Provisional Waiver of Grounds of Inadmissability approved, Immigrant Visa approved, and finally Permanent Resident Card granted. Our legal journey was successful only because of Robert K. DAndrea and his law corporation! When it is time for my husband to apply for citizenship, there is no other lawyer we will trust and turn to again, but Robert! The entire staff there is outstanding including Aileen Yu and Susu DAndrea! I would recommend Robert and his law corporation to anyone who needs a trustworthy and top rate immigration lawyer!

      Professional, Responsive, and Thoughtful Immigration Attorney (H-1B + RFE Case in 2019)

      Posted by

      Attorney Bob D'Andrea handled both initial filing and RFE respond of my H-1B petition. The approval comes only days after the RFE documents mailed out. What can I say? My whole family in the party mode a few days after! My H-1B case isn't particularly complicated or drastic. However, the political climate in 2019 makes every H-1B case an uphill battle. During the preparation of my H-1B filing, I found D'Andrea is always up-to-date with both established statute and USCIS's inconsistent processing procedures. From his diligence and frankness, I can feel his sincere passion to help those who dream. Also, I appreciate Attorney D'Andrea's work not only because my case is being approved. Throughout the process of preparing my case, Bob has always been transparent and responsive to my question, which makes me much less anxious. I also wanted to say thank you to the law firm's office manager, Aileen Yu. Her patience to my questions and attention to the details made me feel much more confident about the journey.
