Kolken Law has proven to be an invaluable asset in navigating the complexities of US immigration law. In particular, Matthew Kolken and Rob Mietlicki, working alongside Benjamin Kolken, demonstrated exceptional expertise and unwavering dedication in assisting us with our medical visa extensions.
Without their guidance, the process of engaging with USCIS would have been significantly more daunting. They streamlined the process, ensuring timely submissions and addressing all queries with precision. Their professionalism and commitment to client satisfaction were evident throughout our interactions.
I wholeheartedly recommend Matthew Kolken and his team at Kolken Law to anyone seeking assistance with US immigration matters. His expertise, coupled with his personalized approach, makes him a top choice for navigating the intricacies of US immigration law.

Todd Morth is a very knowledgeable, professional, and supportive. He fully explained all of my options to me and walked me through the entire process of what to expect, and consistently remained available to answer any questions I had as we worked together. His rates are extremely reasonable and I am grateful he was able to get my case resolved within just a few months. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a bankruptcy attorney to represent them.

I am very impressed with Mr. Slepian's work ethic. I consulted him with a question about possible actions to take, and he took the time to thoroughly understand the background of my immigration process. He was the first lawyer to do this, and as a non-native speaker, I really appreciated that he spoke slowly and clearly. He also didn’t try to push his services on me. Instead, he made me feel very relieved. If I ever need an immigration lawyer, he will be my first choice.

Richmond Vona took a chance on me when I had a complicated case.

Recently closed a case with this law firm, They were helpful and attentive through the entire process. When an offer of settlement was presented, the attorneys listened and advocated on my behalf to get a better offer on the table. They were communicative, And offered suggestions throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this law firm to anyone with a case they are looking to have mitigated.

Great choice for counsel! Very professional and effective attorneys. We were sued by a competitor. Our 1st attorney( Woods, Oviatt, ) had the case for 4 years and did nothing but send us invoices...Dave E got our lawsuit dismissed in less than half the time and half the cost. In my opinion very honest...I wish I could say the same for our experience with William Savino.

Brian is the man!! It took almost a year to get my case to the finish line but Brian was available to talk anytime I needed, and he did an amazing job of keeping me positive when things seemed rather grim. I never felt like a number and I always felt like he was putting 100% into my case. At the very end ,the insurance company offered me 8K, but within a week he had it up to 12k. I literally cannot find one negative thing to say about the representation I received from Brian. If I ever hit by another driver again or if I ever know somebody that's been hit I will recommend. Brian in a heartbeat with 100% confidence. Thank you again, Brian

I was in a car accident and decided to seek help from William Mattar Law Offices because I always saw their commercials as a kid and I remembered the jingle, but my experience was extremely disappointing. They claimed they reached out to me multiple times through phone and email, but I never received a single message or call. It felt like they used this excuse to avoid taking my case instead of being honest about it. If they didn’t want to handle my case, they should’ve just told me to my face.
I sent letters, called repeatedly, and tried to follow up, but they kept pretending they would call me back—yet no one ever did. Ultimately, I had to handle my dispute on my own. Ironically, I ended up settling for much more money than I believe they could have ever achieved. It’s clear they only want big cases and don’t take smaller cases seriously.
On top of that, their staff was rude and unprofessional. The lawyer’s representative I spoke to often had an attitude and never made me feel valued or respected. The only positive thing about my experience was when I first went into the office—they made me feel welcome initially, but everything went downhill after that.
If you’re dealing with a case, I’d recommend fighting on your own or going to a firm like The Barnes Firm, where they might treat you with the respect and seriousness you deserve. William Mattar’s office did not live up to their reputation, and I won’t be going back.

My initial experience with the firm was great! They made me feel heard and taken care of. After a while I heard less and less until I started to reach out to them. It took several attempts to get someone to return my call only to be given an incorrect update on my case. Several times over the last year I have been given the update of “just waiting on a call back from the adjuster”
In the beginning I was promised constant updates throughout my case, now I’m told that if there is no new news don’t expect a call.

I was involved in a car accident and was injured. Not only was Sarah instrumental in obtaining a fair settlement within a timely manner, she was very kind and caring. Sarah always made me feel safe throughout the whole process as this was quite the ordeal for me. This situation was especially sensitive as I am Canadian and live 2 ½ hours away in Ontario. Sarah never let the distance or the fact that I am a Canadian be an issue with resolving this case in a positive manner.
I would highly recommend Sarah as she is very professional and knowledgeable in the industry and truly does care about her clients.

I was fortunate to have Sarah represent me on my Personal Injury Claim. She worked tirelessly on every detail and kept me well informed every step of the way. Sarah is the epitome of justice. During my darkest times she showed me compassion. It's not what someone says that you remember, it's how they made you feel and with that being said I not only had good representation... I had and still have a friend.

I was informed all the way through and was carefully explained all the steps we took together. It is a very professional and they prove productive services.

My husband and I worked with Andrew to submit our green card application in 2024.
Our situation had numerous hurdles to overcome and it was urgent we file our application as soon as possible. Andrew responded to my emails quickly and with immense detail. He advised us of the best way to proceed with each form and encouraged us to provide the necessary supporting evidence for our marriage.
Early 2025 we were notified of our green card interview. Prior to the interview, Andrew explained any potential issues we might encounter and sat with us in the interview. He also provided support while our case being reviewed. Our application was approved thereafter!
Andrew was honest and straightforward regarding the difficulties we had to face. He guided us every step of the way with ease and made the stressful application process simple. He dealt with every challenge with expertise and addressed our concerns regarding our case with compassion and understanding. He is extremely knowledgeable and experienced; Andrew truly is an exceptional lawyer.
My husband and I are very grateful to Andrew and we can’t recommend him enough; he is a true Buffalo spirit with a willingness to help and was there for us when we needed him. He provided outstanding services and we are extremely glad we trusted him with our case.
Thank you for everything you have done for us Andrew!

What can I say? I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Weinrieb. He is an incredible Attorney. He is caring, compassionate, and truly cares about his clients.
I came to Mr. Weinrieb with an extremely difficult situation. My previous lawyer quit before trial and I presented him with my case/situation on very short notice. One where 9 other Attorneys said nothing was possible and laughed at the situation. When I first met him and told him this he snickered and said he will work to the best of his ability, and he absolutely did. He went above and beyond for my case. And proved large attorney firms wrong.
His response rate was fast and he was informative and very honest. When he said he was on something he stuck to his word and got things done fast.
Mr. Weinriebs rates are also absolutely incredible and extremely fair for custody proceedings. He was literally the QB and made every play with my sons best interests in mind. Thats what you want in a lawyer.
Thank you from the bottom of my heart Mr. Weinrieb you give attorneys a very good name.
Who ever reads this review please do yourself a favor and check this law firm out it’s the best in town.

I hired Dan Schuller to help get Medicaid for my mother. I live in Canada which complicates things...and this was a very difficult case. I interviewed by phone (due to the pandemic) four lawyer firms. Dan was the only one I had confidence that could succeed in getting Medicaid. Dan's knowledge, professionalism and sincerity won me over the first time I talked to him. The other lawyer firms outright said, "They couldn't do it." Dan was always available by phone or email to answer my questions. He never made me feel inferior for asking for guidance. He was a pleasure to work with. Dan succeeded in getting my mother her Medicaid in an amazing timeframe. I give Dan the highest recommendation for anyone looking for an Elder Law Attorney!
