Simply the best Immigration Law Firm...the entire team of Laywer Sapochnick is awsome!!!

Where to start... Lawyer Sapochnick and his entire team are simply the BEST!!! They have helped me out so much and I am very grateful for everything they have done for me. My case was a bit complicated and I did have a time issue, but the entire team of Lawyer Sapochnick was very supportive and th...ey did their best to help me with my problem, which was solved within a couple of weeks. I would like to thank Lawyer Sapochnick, Lupe, Melina, Jessica and a big Thank you goes out to dear Mariah who was always available for me, no matter how many questions I had. She is very patient and always gave me the feeling that I am in the best hands with my problem. Immigration is not an easy topic, in fact it is very complicated and emotional, but trust me, when you start your journey with the Law Firm of Lawyer Sapochnick, you will be in the BEST possible hands. My first problem was solved and now I will go to another stage in my immigration phase and I am very happy and grateful to be a client of this firm. The people that work in this office are so nice and so understanding, even thou they have very stressful jobs, they will help you out as much as they can, with the best knowledge they have. They will always be honest to you, because there are (especially in the immigration process) time lines and due dates, which is not in their hands. But just know this, whatever is in their hands and in their power, they will do for you. I am feeling that I am in the best possible hands with my immigration issue and I am confident and excited to start the next stage of my case with the entire team of Lawyer Sapochnick. Thank you again from the button of my heart Lawyer Sapochnick, Mariah, Lupe, Melina and Jessica :) You are my little angels :)

The Best Immigration Lawyer office in usa

Working with Jacob on my L1 immigration process was one of the best things that ever happened to me. Before i chose to work with the Jacob office i passed no fewer than eight lawyers. Despite the concerns from the large distances and after the consultation on the phone i got the impression that ...this is the lawyer office that i will hired to work on my case. This office has a great team to work with. Not only are they committed and skilled, but they also partner with you every step of the way. They quick to answer emails, easy to access via phone, and was such a help throughout the whole process. I had a very difficult immigration case which was turned down by not 1 but 3 immigration lawyers who told me it was not impossible. Thanks to the amazing Kate and inese so professional that worked on my case phenomenal I am the happy men in the world that found this office. Highly recommend everybody. This the best Immigration lawyer office in usa don't think twice hired them.

Very bad Experience !!!

I am frankly surprised with the many good reviews as my experience was completely different. From the start of our case we had problems with responsiveness . We met with one of his attorneys to file a motion to reopen a i-485 denial, his attorney collected a 600 dll fee which was half of our retai...ner. at that time she said within a few hours she would email us a checklist of items we would need to re open our case as time was of the essence as we had 30 days to file to reopen... One full week later we had not received anything from his office nor from the attorney which prompted an email from me asking why not and what was going on. Jacob responded by saying he would check with his team and outline a list for us for the following day////which is now 8 days after meeting and paying the retainer. We collected the items they asked for and took them into his office a few days later and paid the balance of the retainer of 1200 dlls. The attorney ended up having to FEDEX the paperwork to USCIS so it would arrive the next day to beat the deadline of 30 days to file the motion..... Approximately 3 months later we received notice from USCIS that my son would need a medical exam for the upcoming USCIS interview. The attorney's office emailed us to complete the exam and that would be all that is needed, I specifically asked if that would be all that is needed again which the attorney replied back stating it would be all that is needed and for me to scan the notice to her. A few days later we received the notice for the interview, The attorney asked that we scan the notice to her and upon receiving the notice emailed me back a checklist of items contradicting he earlier statement that the exam was all that was needed for the interview. I now have a checklist of items needed for the interview in front of me.....some items require me visiting county offices etc to obtain and our interview is in just two days. The checklist was sent to me from the attorney on a Friday afternoon and our interview is on Wednesday morning! When I asked the attorney why this was not given to me weeks or months ago which would have allowed us time to obtain these items his only response was that it was out of the scope of his duties and that they were only sending me the list as a courtesy. When I told him his attorney clearly stated to us that the exam would be all that was needed for the interview he simply stated again that it was out of the scope of their duties and they were only trying to be helpful. Our I 485 adjustment of status interview is very important to us as my wifes petition has been declined once before so we want to be as prepared as possible for this interview...to get it right. We hired this attorney thinking we would have competent attorney guiding us through this process but thats not what we got. Note: We never met Jacob personally...he delegates everything to other attorneys or they may even be paralegals.

Dear Fred: Thank you for sharing your experience with my office and I am sorry that you are frustrated. As you mentioned in your review, you hired my law firm to re open a denied I-485 case that you filed on your own. You realized that you need an attorney to help you only after your case was denied. You hired my law firm to re open this complicated denial, and we delivered the results. You were assigned an experienced appeals lawyer to handle the case and your I-485 was re opened. I wish that you mentioned that in your review as well. You signed a fee agreement that stated our services were limited to fighting to re open your case, we delivered. After you case was re opened, we continued to answer your questions and you were never charged for any further advice. I understand that we can not make everybody happy, but we sure deliver the best results in our legal services. That is why we have so many great reviews and happy clients. Sorry we could not make you smile, but at least we were able to win your case. Jacob Sapochnick

I've never seen an attorney so much involved in support for the immigrants!

Jacob is without a doubt the most efficient immigration attorney in US! He will spend as much time as necessary for you! His level of expertise has helped me to clarify so many things that I wasn't able to find with other attorneys. When I called him, he attended me so quickly, answering me all my... questions. Most importantly, is that Jacob cares about you, and with his amazing staff! I've never seen an attorney so much involved in support for the immigrants! He always answers questions through facebook, also his podcast about the immigration news is so good! Jacob has a great book on Amazon "My American Job: The Foreign Worker's Ultimate Guide to Finding a Job and a Visa Sponsor in the United States" that helps you to come legally to USA. Very helpful, you will have a great reading! I can guarantee and I recommend Jacob's office! Olavo
