They're wonderful professionals - we highly recommend them!

On behalf of our entire family, we want to express our deepest gratitude to the Arvian Law Firm team and personally to attorney Vitalii Maliuk for the brilliant victory in our asylum case! We filed our documents in December 2025, and by May 2026, we had already received full approval and our white c...ards in hand. Less than six months—such an incredible result would have been impossible without the tremendous work of Vitalii and the Arvian Law Firm office. A special thank you for the outstanding and incredibly detailed interview preparation. Thanks to your professionalism, we felt fully supported at every stage and walked into the interview with absolute confidence. Thank you for helping our family find safety so quickly and efficiently. You are true professionals!

I would not recommend this attorney

I hired this attorney and paid $4,500 for legal services related to my immigration case. Unfortunately, the work I paid for was not completed. When I asked for a refund, instead of resolving the situation professionally, I felt threatened with ICE. This experience caused me a lot of stress and disapp...ointment. Based on my personal experience, I would not recommend this attorney.

EB-1A Success – Highly Recommend

We are extremely grateful for the outstanding work of this legal team. From the very beginning, they approached our case with professionalism, precision, and strategic thinking. Our EB-1A petition was approved, and we truly believe this result reflects their deep expertise and attention to detail. ... They were thorough in preparing the petition, clear in communication, and always responsive to our questions. We felt confident throughout the entire process knowing our case was handled by professionals who genuinely understood the complexity of extraordinary ability petitions. Immigration cases can be stressful, but their structured approach and guidance made everything feel organized and manageable. We highly recommend them to anyone seeking serious, competent representation for complex immigration matters.

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."
