An amazing human Being and professional

I experienced working with him and he is very clear with his expectations and knowledgeable regarding the immigration field. He is very kind and fair, super smart, and a great human being.

Top Notch

I had a consultation with this attorney. He told me what it was without any hesitation. He gave me another option at a lower cost because he said I wasn’t in need of his service but my cousin later hired him for k1 visa and she was able to bring her husband

The Worst

Back in 2008 this guy took my money and all he did was delay my case. He made multiple errors on my documents. At one point I couldn't get in contact with him, I had to drive to his office in NJ to find out his office was no longer there. I never was able to get in touch with him. I had to contact Im...migration Services to remove him from handling my case which delayed the case even more. Why the review now? I came across his name and couldn't help to write about my experience, hopefully this will help save someone a headache.

The worst experience ever. If i could give him NO star i would

I hired Mr Zelig for bringing my daughter to the US on a visa from my husband. Mr. Zelig at the beginning was a little weird but nice kind of. once we made the deposit payment and he started to work it as a headache. every week he has new secretary so no one knows what is going on. he screams at th...em on the backround and you can hear him telling them to tell me that he will call me back and to hang up. the girls are always confused because he never calls back and he knows the message. One time i went to his office and he screaming at me that he has other important things to handle and he will call me he told me to leave the office. I regret a lot hiring him. He is not worth money, is too much of a headache. There were so many mistakes, he always ask a couple times for documents because he lose them. I was so fed up that i hired another attorney because he is horrible.

Horrible Attorney

i Hired Mr.Zelig for to get my permanent green card after my 2 year one. from the beginning i thought he was really rude and weird but I thought it was just because he was old. He is so rude and disrespectful.Once i paid he sent me the application and never told me the next step. Everytime I called h...e had an assistant tell me hi was on his list but wasn't important at the moment. he had a new assistant every week. it was such a headache. I ended up showing up and he told me he was not going to see me and that he would cal me when he felt like it. You don't say that to a client. It was horrible. i am so glad that this is over. DO NOT HIRE HIM!
