This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Great Lawyer!

He helped prepare our case so well that my husbands interview in Mexico went so smoothly! He is very fast at personally emailing me back even when it was on weekends. Worth hiring him, you won’t be disappointed! You pay what you get

Attorney of Pride

Highly recommend Jonathan! His background story is inspirational and heart warming. Really knows what the meaning of uniting a family is! Really took care of me and in turn I'm able to be there and care for my family.

Excellent Attorney - Will keep recommending to family and anyone who asks

Jonathan helped me in my case and since has helped another two family members. I referred my family to him because of how well he handle my case, he was honest with me didn't give me any false hopes and also made sure HE found the best way to help me. He saw my case and consider everything that appl...ied to me and recommend not only the most advantageous way to do it, but also the most cost effective given my financial situation, while making sure that it wouldn't jeopardize my legal stay in the country. His fees are exceptionally affordable, and he is willing to work with his clients by letting them make payments on his attorney fees. Almost everyone in his office speaks Spanish including him. If there is a need for him to travel to the immigration appointments or to accompany you in those appointments, he doesn’t add it as an extra fee on your bill. Over all he was excellent, he was reassuring, realistic, affordable and very knowledgeable of the CURRENT laws. Thank you Jonathan.

Excellent Attorney

I highly recommend Jonathan Shaklee. Not only was he very knowledgeable about the full immigration subject matter but he explained all the information to me in a clear and detailed manner which made the process easy, quick and flawless. Jonathan is very professional, timely with responses and follow-...up and has a genuinely trustworthy and caring disposition which is valuable in ensuring a successful case outcome. With his help and expertise I was able to get my greencard in less than 4 months and would highly recommend him to anyone who needs help in immigration matters. He is without a doubt the best lawyer I have ever had the privilege to work with.
