Bad lawyer
No green card and no money back . After 6 years my daughter has not received her green card and even one dollar back. At first he was telling you will receive your money after 5 years. I spend a lot and gave him more than our agreement. No work for his clients.

Replied last October 30, 2025Unfortunately, this person did not reveal any names. The standard Agreement does NOT provide guarantees. If USCIS and/or US Embassy does not approve green card, that is not the lawyer's fault. All lawyers get compensated for their time, not based on the results.

Excellent attorney
Simply trust him. Minor obstacles will always happen but he is capable of handling it. He is very responsive and quick. He thinks and cares about your file more than you do!

An attorney that personally answers your questions and file your case
He is an excellent attorney that will be in contact with you in person. Answers to inquiries are quick and to the point. He will discuss the risks and benefits of investment in different projects. I did not experience any delay in my immigration process. He can be forward but this only helps you to ...
