Sam was a lifesaver as my lawyer. Right from the start, he was super professional and really knew his stuff. What I really appreciated was how he didn't pretend to have all the answers. If he was unsure, he'd reach out to other lawyers to get the best advice, which was awesome.
He was great at explaining all the legal jargon and made sure I understood what was going on. Plus, he was always a step ahead in the game, which paid off big time.
Most importantly, Sam was always there to keep me in the loop. It felt more like having a friend in the legal world who genuinely cared about my case. Honestly, if you're in a tough spot and need legal help, Sam's your guy. He's not just a great lawyer but a great person to have on your side.

So glad I found out about Leiva Law Firm. They helped me with my husbands' green card/immigration process. They are a professional team, and extremely thorough every step of the way. I never got to meet them in person, however they were very responsive via email. Happy to work with them again in the near future.

If you’re looking for an experienced, reasonably priced and extremely professional lawyer, look no further. Scarlett and her team are simply the best. Before choosing Leiva’s firm, I have spoken to several other immigration attorneys - I have a somewhat difficult case and wanted someone experienced and reliable. I had horrible experiences with other attorneys and felt pretty discouraged about my immigration case. That is when I found Leiva Law Firm. Scarlett was willing to work with us, despite the difficulties of the case. Her expertise and professionalism blew my mind so much that I decided that I wanted to hire her within our very first phone call.
My spouse and I were very confused about the whole immigration process (what documents to submit, how to fill out forms, etc), but at Leiva Law Firm, we were granted access to a very convenient and easy to follow portal on a separate website. We simply answered the questionnaire, submitted all documents and Betty (paralegal) took care of the rest. This was a game changer for us and made our lives much easier (I no longer had to stare at USCIS website and panic, yay). Also, every time we had questions about the process, Betty or someone on the team answered in a timely manner. My green card arrived in the mail within 5 months, no interview and no request for additional evidence from USCIS. My husband and I couldn’t be happier that we chose Scarlett and her team, and we seriously can’t recommend them enough.
Scarlett, Betty, Alex and Valeria: thank you so much! <3

I had worked with two other law firms prior to meeting Scarlett and her team. She was the only one who provided actual practical advice and was clearly experienced in how to address my wife's particular immigration situation. The other laws firms I had engaged with previously were too focused on theory and not on how the immigration process and law works in practice. I am so thankful for Scarlett, Betty, and the Leiva team as they were able to help my wife navigate the immigration and permanent resident card process in a manner that was extremely smooth and guided us through all the necessary steps to ensure it did not become a nightmarish process that I know others have experienced. Her team is extremely professional and clearly experienced in handling US immigration procedures and are experts on US immigration law. More importantly, she and her team were able to explain complex legal matters in way my wife and I could understand and was able to concisely summarize key points and concepts. I highly recommend Scarlett and the Leiva team and have already recommended them to other friends.

His dedication to my well-being and his meticulous attention to detail gave me peace of mind during what could have been an incredibly stressful time.

In September 2023, my brother (25, from Arizona) got arrested (in San Francisco, California) after attempting to enter a conference within a community both of us grew up in and have been apart of since 2008. His car keys were knocked out of his suit pants during a tackle incident at the security clearance after he had trouble leaving when asked. According to my brother there was a misunderstanding of an email conflicting with him not being invited to the conference. After being tackled and handcuffed, he told the officers he had a concealed firearm in his vehicle, 5 minutes away, as he felt it was a danger for his keys to be off of his person. I was at this conference, and saw some of this happen live. My peers in our place of work were laughing, and making memes about this for months. There are many videos and pictures of the whole ordeal.
They put 6 charges on him that night, including "possession of armor piercing ammunition" and "high capacity magazines"
The SF media created a narrative off of the charges and the prosecution ran with it moving to deny bail within the first week, just as my family was even beginning to cope with this new reality. Public consensus of the incident caused a rift in the community between those who knew him for years prior and know he would never do what was being inferred by the media, and those who didn't know him and were led to believe it. Our family used this as fuel to ensure we stuck with this case mentally and financially, no matter how hard it felt and how much of an uphill battle it was at times.
We went through two public defenders, and another private attorney before landing on Nechay Law in late March 2024. Nechay tried many angles of defense for this non violent gun storage charge. All previous charges except "having a concealed firearm in a vehicle" were wiped, and the remaining was moved to a misdemeanor which a change of plea got him out of jail after 1 year, 4 days.
The prosecution was going for conviction on the felony level to get him 6 years, based upon the narrative they shaped up. Nechay (even after 7 months of other attorneys handling the case) was able to reverse and put to rest the previously life ruining, retribution hungry narrative.
The best scenario out of all of this is he will be getting more familial attention and help to deal with previous traumas such as a car crash that totaled his very expensive car, two home break-ins, and his business faltering. Rebuilding for him will be a hard but rewarding journey, and Nechay has allowed that second chance of the sanctity of life to happen through her expertise. I cannot recommend enough. Our family is eternally grateful for Valery and her firm's service.

Adam was recommended to me through another lawyer and I'm so thankful that that happened. We corresponded via text before hoping on a phone call. I still can't believe how kind and empathetic and knowledgable he was. He's exactly the kind of person and lawyer that you want in your corner.

I can't recommend Valery Nechay enough as an attorney. Her knowledge in so many areas of the law is truly impressive. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered, and I always felt supported and informed throughout the whole legal process. Even with her busy schedule, Valery always found time to answer my questions, no matter how small. She made me feel like I was in the hands of someone who genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Valery is not just knowledgeable and dedicated, but also incredibly compassionate. I'm so grateful for everything she did for me.

Adam was recommended to me through another lawyer and I'm so thankful that that happened. We corresponded via text before hoping on a phone call. I still can't believe how kind and empathetic and knowledgable he was. He's exactly the kind of person and lawyer that you want in your corner.

I can't recommend Valery Nechay enough as an attorney. Her knowledge in so many areas of the law is truly impressive. She went above and beyond to make sure every detail was covered, and I always felt supported and informed throughout the whole legal process. Even with her busy schedule, Valery always found time to answer my questions, no matter how small. She made me feel like I was in the hands of someone who genuinely cares and knows her stuff. Valery is not just knowledgeable and dedicated, but also incredibly compassionate. I'm so grateful for everything she did for me.
