Shorter version - If you are reading this review, trust me when I say Jay is a really good lawyer and has the patience to actively listen - a quality that his profession demands yet not many have them. He lays the facts straight and is honest about the situation and how much he can achieve. He ...will never overpromise but will make sure to deliver 100% on what he has promised. So trust this review and all the good words others have put in for him and reach out to him if you are in need of immigration consultation. He is especially great with complex issues! Longer version - I had a particularly difficult case with visa extension withdrawn by my employer and i94 being expired long time ago. I had to deal with the probability of facing a 3-year ban and travel out of the country with my new born baby. I was in an urgent need of immigration consultation and looked up for lawyers on Avvo. That's where I came across Jay's firm. I did my thorough research about his work and went through every online review written about him before reaching out. I think that has been one of the best decisions I have ever taken. Jay understood the gravity of my situation and immediately gave me the time the same day. It is fairly easy to reach him and my experience has been the same until the very end. He took the time to listen to all the facts, and explained my options to me in an easy to understand, simply laid out format. This was important to me because I must have spoken to a dozen of lawyers at the time, wasting thousands of dollars, as most of them weren't professional enough and multitasking on the call. Whereas, Jay patiently answered all my questions and run different scenarios by me that I hadn't even thought of. His counseling is straightforward and involves honesty that I really appreciated. This helped me build my confidence in his abilities and intentions of working in the best interests of his clients. I convinced my new employer to bypass their lawyer and let Jay work on my tricky case as he knew all the facts. Jay even spoke with my employer and stated everything as-is that helped them have confidence in my case. I must commend how seamless the process was and the speed at which everything was accomplished as time was of utmost importance then. We filed my petition with a solid argument and waited with fingers crossed. Cutting to the chase, my H1B transfer was approved in the end. But we had to deal with 4 RFEs to get there! I have never heard anyone being issued more than 2 RFEs, let alone 4. It was a testing time. But throughout all of this nightmare, Jay and his team demonstrated humanity above everything. He prioritized my case and promptly yet diligently crafted replies to all of the RFEs, building stronger argument everytime. He did not charge an extra penny even when he knew he wasn't going to make anything from my case. But that's what he had promised and he insisted on keeping his word. Jay and his team was always available to address my questions, often times asked in panic, with patience and facts. He did not give up and worked doubly hard for every RFE to present a tough fight. Eventually, all the hardowrk paid off and my petition was approved!

My wife refused to go to interview with me bcz of family dispute & then i talk to jay & he started the process by reapplication & he guided me getting all the necessary papers i needed to prove my genuine marriage, my case was very complicated bcz my wife said she is not going with me just 2 days be...fore the interview & she emailed the immigration office to hold my green card. I requested Jay bcz i was very nervous and he went to interview with me although he was very busy. He is very knowledgeable & I highly recommend to contact him in any kind of immigration questions. He helped me getting 10 yrs green card in just a year.

Jay and Kimmi team helped me with my CR1 spouse immigration visa. I have applied US visa for H1B or EB2 for 3 years, and were pending all the time. When my husband found Jay and Kimmi Team, asked their help to file CR1 immigration visa for me, it is game changer. The team filed paper work correctly a...nd promptly. My husband got 1-130 approval in 3 months. My application materials were send to NVC right away. Due to COVID-19, US embassy was closed, but I still got the interview spot on the first day when the US embassy re-open. I passed my interview and got the CR1 visa in Oct this year. It is a quite fast process during the pandemic! I am really appreciative for Jay's team help. They are awesome.

Jay is a phenomenal immigration attorney. He successfully helped me with my EB-1 application followed by I-485 adjustment for my spouse and myself. We approached Jay after speaking with numerous (highly reviewed) immigration attorneys. We chose him for his shining reviews but most importantly we c...hose him because he was the most professional and straightforward with his assessment of our case. We wanted to have EAD for my spouse ASAP and he was the only attorney who prudently advised filing the I-140 and I-485 concurrently. That allowed us to receive our EADs in less than 4 months. He worked on my EB-1 dossier and helped us throughout the process. He advised me diligently and built the application that highlighted my technical experience in a manner that any non-technical person can understand. I believe this is his biggest quality. He continuously guides you to represent your technical achievements in a way that USCIS immigration officers can understand it easily - allowing for smooth approval. Jay specializes in marketing your achievements/experience to overcome all the gaps in the visa requirements. Even in challenging cases or RFEs, he crafts the response to remove even the slightest doubts/kinks resulting in speedy approval. Not to mention his calm and composed demeanor, sharp wit and goal-oriented approach. He is always available and easily approachable to answer any/all your queries and stays on top of your case (EAD/AP renewals, address change etc) throughout the process. I have recommended Jay to several friends and colleagues for different immigration needs (H1B, H4-EAD, O1, EB-1 and associated RFEs) and all their applications have been successful - 100%. My spouse and I highly recommend Jay for all your immigration needs - he will not disappoint you. Professional yet very personable immigration lawyer. All the best for continued success!
