10 years of EXCELLENT representation

I started talking with Joe about applying for my immigration rights to work in America back in 2009. Since then Joe has shepherded me through 4 x O1 visa approvals... some easier than others. Joe has always been there for me regardless of the challenges I have faced. He's gone above and beyond coun...tless times and responds to all my insane questions in a timely fashion. Here's the thing with Joe, he only represents creatives that are truly eligible for approval. If he's willing to take you on, then he knows you have what it takes to get approved. You simply need to trust his process, regardless of what research you may have done or what worries you may have about your eligibility. Joe and his team are the real deal and I've recommended there firm to countless creatives with confidence. Thank you, Joe for my Jan 2021 approval, which came back in record timing... less than a week! Rob Pearson

I couldn't have asked for a better Greencard experience.

From our initial consultation and throughout my application, Joseph was consistently thorough in his explanation of the process and always readily available. He made sure that I fully understood what was required of me in terms of paperwork and what every stage of putting my case together involved.... Joseph arranged a one on one session to prep my fully for my Greencard interview and to explain why they have the interviews and what was expected. After which I felt prepared and relaxed. I highly recommend him to anyone who requires a Visa.

Smooth Sailing!

I have had Joe as my lawyer now for the past 4 years. He has helped me attain my o1 visa when I first moved out to America and just this year he got me my Green Card. Always very calm and very easy to work with he took the time to take me through each step of each process and kept my worried ...mind at ease. He never had a doubt in his mind and was always incredibly thorough with all the paper work. I will 100% be keeping Joe as my lawyer for the future and I would recommend him to all my closest.

Visa approved!

Joe was recommended to me by a friend who's first visa application by a different lawyer was rejected. Then she hired Joe and her visa was approved. I was lucky enough to go straight to Joe, and the result was unfaltering - an approved O1 visa! I felt confident in Joe from our initial consultation. H...e went through all the requirements in a very detailed, yet easy to understand manner. And he delivered on everything he promised to do. I worked as a lawyer myself, and I was very impressed with his attention to detail and the completeness and comprehensiveness of my petition submitted to USCIS. It was very impressive and resulted in the approval of my visa request. I now hold an O1 visa, thanks to Joe's work!

Best and clearest advice, i have ever received....

I have worked with Lawyers in three continents over the years, and i wish they had all been like Joe. Quite simply, he gave me the best advice, in a timely fashion that proved to be an absolute life saver. It was on an immigration and employment matter and he was stop on. I have already reco...mmended Joe to three friends, and I will continue to send people towards him and his colleagues.
