Won the political asylum case

esterday, we won our political asylum case in immigration court! Thank you, Vitaly Maliuk and his Team! For a long time, I couldn't find a law firm I could trust. It was pure hell. I was searching for a lawyer, and at the same time, trying to figure out how to file various legal forms and document...s that I really didn't want to deal with. Somewhere on Telegram, I found Vitaly Maliuk's advertisement. I called them. I immediately liked their principled approach: Kristina asked me to tell my story of persecution first. Before this, other lawyers didn't even ask about it. Since I consider myself a person of principle, this was very important to me. I decided to work with Vitaly and his team, and I haven't regretted it once! I loved that they were always in touch, always polite. Even when my nerves were completely frayed, they were the epitome of composure! They're very legally knowledgeable; there's always someone who can clarify any question. I have only positive emotions left from working with Vitaly's team. Ultimately, thanks to their professional handling of my case, we won the court and received political asylum! Thank you, guys! At all three hearings of our case, Vitaly was professional, calm, confident in himself and in us. In short, everything a great lawyer should be. I'm very glad I didn't make a mistake in choosing my lawyer. It's hard to describe in words how difficult those two years of waiting, sleepless nights, and worries were. But it all worked out, thanks to Vitaly's team! Thank you so much once again!

Amazing and Smooth Experience

I’m beyond thrilled that my EB-1A petition was approved without any trouble! Arvian Law firm did an incredible job presenting my achievements clearly and strategically. Their expertise made the process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend them for anyone applying for an EB-1A!

Asylum case

I want to express my deep gratitude to the entire Arvian Law team, as well as personally to Vitaliy Malyuk! Today, something very important happened—thanks to them, I received approval for my asylum case. The process took 2.3 years from the moment I arrived in the United States. Thank you so much!

Until recently, I was the head coach of Jiu-Jitsu in Kazakhstan. In May, I arrived in the United States, and by September, together with the Arvian Law Firm team, I applied for an EB-1A talent visa through the expedited process. In October, I received an RFE, followed by a denial. However, in Novembe...r, we submitted the petition again, and this time it was approved! I’m absolutely thrilled with this outcome and confident in the professionalism of the legal team—Kristina, Maxim, and Alena. They did an outstanding job! I highly recommend them!

Good lawyer

Thanks to the Arvian Law Firm team. I spent a lot of time studying legal issues to understand what to do. Then I spent a long time looking for a lawyer and checked this company many times. And I did not regret it, all the issues were resolved and in addition they made me a new WORK PERMIT. Thank you ...for your work and responsiveness.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I had the opportunity to connect with Vitalii through a professional discussion about a case in our field, and I appreciated both his responsiveness and the quality of his analysis. Vitalii’s case strategy was thoughtful and reflected a strong understanding of the issues involved. What especially stood out to me was his ability to think outside the box and make a bold argument that was both creative and well reasoned. Not every attorney is willing to take that approach, and I was genuinely impressed by how confidently and persuasively he developed his position. It was immediately clear to me that he is knowledgeable, analytical, and able to navigate complex issues effectively. It was genuinely a pleasure to interact with him as a colleague, and I am happy to speak highly of him as an attorney. Vitalii is professional, insightful, and clearly dedicated to what he does."
