The best Immigration Lawyer

Olga is a lifesaver. We had a Person who called himself a lawyer he ended up is not. He wasted at least 6 months due to his lack of knowledge. we got Olga from a friend of my wife and she was very responsive, finished our file in literally 9 business days. I went to the immigration office at... Pearson International and they told me that I can't apply for an L1A visa. Olga was with me on the phone and messages until she explained to the officer that we could apply for L1A for one year rather than 3 Years . She got the job done was amazing and a miracle for us. We highly recommend her to all our friends and family from now on., Highly recommended

Strong Support

I came to Stelmakh & Associates as a Canadian professional who had just accepted a new role in the U.S. and needed a TN petition handled correctly and on a tight timeline. I chose them after doing my research because they clearly specialize in TNs and were very transparent about the process, costs, a...nd likelihood of success. Attorney Olga Prygoda and her team walked me through every step, drafted a very strong employer support letter, prepared all of the application materials, and answered my (many) questions quickly and clearly. They were meticulous but also practical, which made it much less stressful to go through the process while starting a demanding new job. Thanks to their work, my TN was approved without issues, and I’ve been able to move forward in my career in the U.S. with confidence. I’d strongly recommend Stelmakh & Associates to any other Canadians looking for reliable, high-quality immigration counsel.

Excellent consultation on H1B immigration questions

Olga is a very professional and detailed lawyer. We had a bunch of questions about our non-obvious case. Olga was very patient, carefully reading and listening to everything that happened with our H-1B case, and gave clear recommendations. We were unsure about our unlawful presence after receiving an... I-797 from a new company following the grace period. Olga answered all our questions and was very helpful. What's more, she provided the consultation on very short notice. I highly recommend this professional for effective, clear help and instructions, especially if you value your time.

Я работаю в области хим. инженерии и решила пробоваться в США по визу талантов

Я работаю в области хим. инженерии и решила пробоваться в США по визу талантов. Спасибо Ольге за то, что сделала весь процесс сбора и подготовки документов понятным. Все инструкции были максимально подробными и точными. какой документ получить, где получить и тд. Всегда была на связи, поддерживала, к...огда некоторые инстанции выбешивали своей бюрократией и нервотрепками. Спасибо еще раз за человеческий подход, ну и за одобренную визу конечно!

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
