Excellent Immigration Attorney

Andrew Oliver was my attorney. I cannot thank him enough. He is very thorough. Very Knowledgeable . A very professional and dedicated advocate for his clients. May God bless you Andrew for the good work that you and your law firm are doing.

Very Thorough,Attention to all details

Shaklee & Oliver helped us with several immigration cases — first with my wife's full case, and then later with I-130 petitions for both my parents (just the sponsorship part, since our insurance didn’t cover the full process for them). They were incredibly detail-oriented. At times it honestly fe...lt like too much — they were nitpicking things I thought were already good to go, especially since I had prepared a lot of the documents myself. It definitely slowed things down more than I expected. But looking back, I understand why — they were making sure every single detail was right and nothing would be missed. And it worked — all three cases were approved without issues. I appreciate how careful and thorough they were, even when it felt like overkill in the moment. If you're looking for a law firm that takes your case seriously and doesn’t let anything slip through the cracks, I’d recommend them.

Most Proficient, Professional and personalized Legal Counsel

Our experience with Shaklee & Oliver and Andrew in particular has been outstanding. Andrew's deep knowledge and long standing experience is only complemented by an equally proficient back end staff. Immigration and naturalization procedures can be time consuming and arduous. Having the right guidance..., support and coordination was critical, as our family made one of the most important decisions of our lives. Andrew and team were just the right partner we needed as we went through the naturalization journey.. You can count on him and his office to provide the best services and exceed your expectations
