Consultation and hire A S Lolly

The firm has a very professional and caring staff member who seems to be honestly concerned with my immigration petition. There has been no consultation fee charged to speak with the attorney. This truly sets Allan S Lolly firm apart from so many other immigration attorneys. Truly remarkable has I h...ave consulted the office on more than one occasion and received genuine hopeful advice for the future. I will be retaining service soon. Thank you sincerely

Awsome Lawyer with a heart

Saved our case... truely we had gone to the K-1 interview, they said he was denied because of an overstay, we were ready to fire off our i601 waiver and they never gave us the form to allow it. Thanks to them we got the Embassy to green light the waiver and we got it EXPEDITED and in a relatively sho...rt time. Our nightmare is over, now we are just waiting for the visa to reunite our family. This firm gives payment plans, reasonable prices, advice, and know how without asking much in return. If you need an immigration attorney, I strongly suggest considering this firm... these guys have a heart, they actually care about your case.

I refused to wait until my number was called

If "standing in line" is listed as one of your hobbies, I have nothing to say to you. If walking to the front of the line and being more importannt that picking a good number, you are picking the right lawyer to get your family here as soon as possible the legal way. I live next door to a young cou...ple that faced the federal alone, waited in line for two years, and finally were reunited here in Tennessee. I hired Allan S. Lolly and brought my Peruvian wife home four months later, three months processing in the U.S. and one month processing in Peru. The law firm of Allan S. Lolly has taken away the worry of paperwork rejection from each process for immigration, permanent resident, and most recently U.S. Citizenship. The staff at Allan S. Lolly, especially Taylor, keep are quick to give updates on your process when updates are made available. Taylor's email after the citizenship exam to find out how the exam went felt like a friend holding her breath, waiting for the news. We are so thankful to Allan and Taylor for our happiness and I am very appreciative for all their attention to detail handling our affairs. I highly recommend Allan S. Lolly if you want your case handled quickly and professionally, if time means nothing to you then pick a number and your case will be handled in the order it is received.

I601(a) waiver approved- FIRST TIME!! Excellent proffessionalism!

This review is for those who have given up hope that their immigration case has reached a full stop! We were scared and anxious at the thought of never being together as a family after a 212 6(C-i) slap on us. Being based in Uganda, the perception of the immigration maze we would have to go through... in order for our case to be heard & even waived at the most, made us give up; We needed a lawyer who would not judge us based on our origin or case at hand! We needed a lawyer who would listen, understand , guide us and give us hope! My husband on the East coast-USA, located the perfect attorney (Allan Scott Lolly) on the West Coast-USA! Despite the distance from the lawyer, Allan's team (Schyler and Tami) got down to work so quick with exceptional professionalism, dedication and hard work, and they got our i601(a) waiver approved FIRST TIME...FIRST TIME!!! And along the way, they gave us hope and comfort that it will be alright! In no time, Scott's team got our i-130 approved, our family visa interview scheduled and i601 waiver filed. The waiver was approved and visas issued and this entire process was all completed in a seamlessly and timely manner. We highly recommend Allan Scott's law firm for all immigration related matters (Even African cases). Schyler even checked on us to ensure that we arrived in USA safely. Thank you Scott, Tami & Schyler, you are extra-ordinary! Keep the good work! Betty & Geoffrey!!

Betty and Geoffrey, Welcome to the U.S. together as a family! I'm glad all worked out too. I have cases through Africa and have no difficulty working with each family right where they live. Your comments are very much appreciated. Warmly, Allan (Scott)

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.
