Honest, knowledgeable, kind

Michael Carlin helped my husband and I file a provisional waiver of inadmissibility, because my husband was in the US undocumented and was facing a 10 year bar. Our waiver was approved and my husband went for his visa interview prepared, received his visa, and reentered the country legally 2 weeks la...ter. Michael Carlin was approachable, completely informed and knowledgeable, always happy to spend time with us answering our questions, going over things twice or three times as needed, and was patient and kind with our kids too! He was very honest and upfront about our chances of success or failure. He always got back to our emails or calls immediately. We had a really great experience with him and his staff and will recommend him to our family or friends in need of immigration help!

Fantastic service on a complex case!

I was an adjustment of status applicant with a complicated immigration background. Mr. Carlin was open and honest when describing our chances for success and extremely generous with his time from the moment we had our first consultation. He somehow gives you the feeling that you are his only client. ...He is extremely responsive by email and phone. After two years of working with him and an initial setback, Mr. Carlin successfully argued our case in front of the Board of Immigration Appeals when we probably had less than a 50% chance of getting approval! Mr. Carlin will work with you and use his experience to provide the best argument possible. Very thankful!

Compassionate Attorney

Michael Carlin first set himself apart by understanding our sense of urgency and responding to us almost immediately on a Holiday Weekend. Having done our research, we knew we wanted someone who could definitely get the job done, but we were blown away by the compassion he showed. Michael was curre...nt on immigration supreme court rulings which really saved us a lot of time and stress. He was able to give us a great recommendation for an attorney in a different field of practice. Our case went as smoothly as anyone could have hoped for, given the situation. We were always informed of every possible case scenario, never mislead or given false hope, always knew what our chances/expectations were going into every situation. By far the best, and hopefully last, attorney I've had.

I had a wonderful experience with Michael Carlin. He is reliable and was always available to answer questions in a timely manner. Our case went off smoothly and as expected. He is straight forward, honest and very knowledgeable. I will definitely contact Michael if ever needed again. Best place to go... for immigration help and services.

The BEST Attorney in Immigration Law.

I would rate Attorney Michael Carlin a 5 star because he was the reason that the USCIS granted permission for our family to stay together in the U.S. when my husband was on the verge of deportation. Prior to Attorney Michael Carlin taking up our case we had lost all hopes with other lawyers. From t...he time we have been with Michal Carlin he has reassured us that this case could be won and we started slowly gaining faith as he pursued with such care and dedication of the handling of our very sensitive case. Both him and his staff are very friendly, patient and caring; they all are so willing to help make the process a little less stressful. I would highly recommend him to any of my friends and associates. Our family is forever grateful to Attorney Carlin for all that he has done for keeping us together for without him our family would have been broken up by now. Thank you once again Attorney Carlin with all our hearts for all that you did for us and we wish you the very best in all that you do. Sincerely, Ruban family.
