Highly recommend for your immigration needs

I can not recommend Yuliya highly enough! She helped me obtain a green card for my mother. She prepared us for every step of the process, thought in advance of any potential obstacles, and made our case super smooth. We didn’t even have to go to an interview!! Green card was just sent to us by mail.... What a pleasant surprise. You don’t have to be in the same city. We worked remotely and I always got an update or got answers to my questions on time. Our overall experience was very professional and we have only positive impressions.

It was perfect.

Julia was my immigration lawyer when I was obtaining my green card in the USA for individuals with extraordinary abilities (EB-1). I am a sports photographer. When I approached Julia, I was confident that I met all the requirements for an O-1 visa, but Julia explained that in my case, it's better to ...apply for a green card right away, although many 'knowledgeable people' advised against it, saying that they won't grant a green card on the first attempt and it's better to first get a 'talent visa.' As a result, I applied for the EB-1 green card. I provided Julia with all the links and documents I could gather, and she guided me on what to use and translate into English. In the end, I collected everything needed myself, and Julia processed it correctly. What I want to emphasize and recommend: Before turning to Julia, make sure you are eligible for your green card. If you are confident, Julia will guide you through all the difficulties with minimal energy costs. Don't expect the lawyer to hold your hand. Julia appears exactly when something is required from you. If she is silent, it means you just need to relax. Listen to Julia and don't listen to your friends. Alongside me, several of my friends were obtaining a similar type of green card with other lawyers. They were constantly offered to do something faster and various tricks. When I approached Julia for the same service, she said I didn't need it and explained the problems I might face. As a result, all my friends encountered the serious problems Julia warned about and paid a bunch of additional money to solve them. So listen to Julia, and she will save your time and money, even if it seems at first that everything can be done faster. In summary, Julia is an excellent immigration lawyer who can save your time, nerves, and money if you truly deserve it.

Excellent Immigration Attorney

I worked with Yuliya on getting an immigrant visa for my parents. The process was very challenging and took about 2 years. Yuliya was so helpful and supportive through the whole time. She would always answer all my questions, helped with getting all the paperwork together and translate any documents... we would need in the shortest time possible. I’m very grateful to find such an excellent and supportive immigrant attorney! I would absolutely recommend her!

Amazing and capable

I worked with Yuliya recently on my NIW application on the process to permanent residency. I can't explain how grateful I am to her and her help. I had basically given up and was planning on moving back to Europe, but with Yuliyas help I recently got my Green Card approved! She was extremely capable,... honest but positive at the same time, she provided excellent council and provided me with a sense of calm amidst the stress of such an endeavor. She knows exactly what she's doing and she is supportive and determined. You are in great hands when you're working with Yuliya! I will forever be grateful for her help!

Great Immigration Lawyer

My wife and I worked with Yuliya on our immigration case. The process was lengthy and took over two and a half years. During this time Yuliya was always there to answer our questions and help when we needed her. She provided excellent council and my wife recently received her documentation! I would d...efinitely recommend Yulia Pashkova for your immigration related issues.

"Yuliya is a fantastic attorney who is dedicated to giving her clients the highest quality of justice. I recently worked together on a matter with Yuliya involving a complex analysis for a client seeking an investor visa. That matter was not only factually complex, but involved some tight time deadlines. Yuliya was aptly able to fully address the legal issues presented, and well within the limited time frame allotted."
