I believe what you are saying is that that the price was reasonable and the visa was approved, so the result was good. There was a money problem and we were flexible about working to collect our fee for services. You wanted some return calls and did not receive them for some reason. If I were to guess, I would bet there was quite a lot of communications over the course of many months, but you do not like emails so much as a call. Overall, you would recommend me. I very much appreciate your honest comments. I will consider them and look to improve. Kind regards, Allan Lolly

Spouse visa

My wife and I used Allan Lolly and associates to help us obtain spousal visas her and my new step daughter to enter the US from China. I am 100% satisfied with the results and their hard work. I had an excellent legal assistant work my case, her name is Crystal M. She is why my wife and I are fin...ally together and I will always be grateful to her and the entire team at Lolly and associates. My wife Nian has been in the US since October of 2011 and all is well and we couldn’t be happier. The process was long and frustrating for us, 19 months to be exact. So be sure if anyone reading this decides to pursue a visa for a foreign spouse be prepared for a very long wait. Also do not attempt to go through this process on your own. It is possible to do so but one mistake will cost you months or even years and believe the wait is long enough if the process is done mistake free. I highly recommend Allan Lolliy’s team if you need an immigration attorney. I am a very satisfied customer and I am writing this review in the hopes that someone will read it and take my advice. If you need a good immigration attorney look no further than Allan Lolly and associates. Very satisfied customer Kevin and Nian in Indiana

Marriage visa

I enlisted the law firm of Allan S. Lolly to obtain a marriage visa for my wife, a foreign citizen. In short, the process of obtaining a visa is never am easy one. As anyone knows, it entails a lot of paperwork, research and time. That being said, the office of Allan S. Lolly did a fantastic job i...n every aspect. Upon the initial booking of the case for my wife and I, Allan personally spoke to myself and answered specific inquiries I had in a very prompt manner. All of our questions were professionally and quickly answered. The process of acquiring the necessary documents was simplified with thorough instructions and timely follow-up on all outstanding matters with USCIS. Most importantly, we had an outstanding agent to handle every aspect of our affairs on a day to day basis. Her name is Cynthia. I cannot express how fully professional, knowledgable, prompt and honest she was in every aspect of obtaining our visa. She made a difficult process very bearable. I would recommend this office to anyone. Do not do this yourself! They are worth every penny. Thanks again for everything, Cynthia!!!

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.
