My Experience as a Client of Mr. Malik

On April 8, 2017, my husband and I received a letter from USCIS stating that his application for Adjustment of Status had been denied. After 2 years of going through medicals, paying so much out of pocket, and interviews, we were not sure what to do. Since we live in a small town, we decided to go to... St. Louis one day and find a lawyer. We talked with 3 lawyers that day, one being Mr. Malik. After talking with all of them, we chose Mr. Malik because not only was he concerned with the legal aspect of our potential case, he was also concerned with our psychological and emotional well being. In addition, he was one of the most affordable attorneys in the area. After making the decision and putting down a payment, Mr. Malik and his staff began working immediately. Mr. Malik found out that my husband was denied because of misrepresentation; however, the problem we had was that we did not know what the misrepresentation was. So Mr. Malik was able to get in contact with many people and eventually he retrieved the original application for my husband's Visa. All in all, Mr. Malik and his staff helped us complete and submit our I-601 for misrepresentation, I-485 for Adjustment of Status, and I-765 for Employment Authorization in June 2017 (it took us a while to get everything together with work and school). Although it took some time because of the USCIS office, I am happy to say that my husband has received his Green card as of April 9, 2019. There were times I called the office crying and found myself ready to give up, but if it were not for Mr. Malik and his staff, we would not have made it this far. One thing I would like to say about the interview process is that before we went in, I can still remember Mr. Malik joking with us so that we could loosen up; and as we spoke, I was able to get to know him as a person. If you are looking for an attorney that really cares about you, has an incredible and helpful staff, is affordable, and is really concerned about your overall well-being, then Mr. Vivek Malik is the right person.

Good solid attorney with a sea of experience!

I've now hired Mr. Malik's office twice (for my citizenship as well as my parents' GC) and every time we had top notch experience. Everything was explained in detail, he himself was available for a ton of questions I had during the process and was always on top of things.

Excellent attorney and helpful staff

I can gladly recommend Mr. Malik and his office for competent advice and smooth processing of immigration matters. He is an experienced, smart and friendly attorney. He makes you comfortable throughout the process and achieves what he promises. He explains the process in detail during the initial con...sultation and help you understand the timelines. Thank you, Mr. Malik. I really appreciate your able assistance.

Quiet confidence exudes from Mr. Malik and his team.

We first met Mr. Malik when looking for an attorney to deal with my immigration change of status. He laid out the process, the costs involved at the various stages, and gave us the confidence to believe we had found the right attorney for us. We went ahead and, after several months of submitting rel...evant documents to Mr Malik's office, we (my American wife and I) were accompanied to the Green Card interview by Mr Malik, who quietly oversaw the hour-long meeting with the immigration official in downtown St. Louis. I'm happy to report that I have now received my Green Card, and, when it comes to the time when I will be able to seek citizenship, I will be guided through that whole process by Mr Malik, as part of the deal. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Mr Malik, a highly qualified expert in all aspects of the immigration process.
