I hired Mr. Ravani several months ago for my Naturalization case. He handled my case very speedy, inexpensive and efficient. This is one of the best experience I ever had with an attorney. He is very professional, attentive, available and extremely knowledgeable. My case went very smooth forward and I received a very quick and positive result.

I endorse this lawyer. Tony provides invaluable business and immigration insight into the complex world of investing in the U.S. to obtain permanent residency.

Jeffrey Farrah

I highly recommend Tony. Tony is a thorough and talented attorney. He brings real world business experience to the table for his clients. Unlike many business attorneys, Tony has been an executive at several companies and understands what companies are looking for in an effective counsel. He skillfully advises on the law while understanding the complexity of the marketplace.

I strongly endorse Attorney Anthony Ravani based on his vast experience and reputation for quality legal services, especially with respect to EB-5 investment immigration issues. Mr. Ravani is a passionate and knowledable immigration advocate who really cares about his clients.

Anthony is a very determined fighter for his family law and immigration clients. Both of those areas of law are tough to be involved with, yet I confidently send my clients Anthony's way any chance I can.
