My name is Susan Wolf and my husband and I used Mitchell Garrett for our personal bankruptcy. Mr. Garrett and his legal secretary were both great to deal with. We live about 65 miles from Tulsa, Ok., and we got a lot of work accomplished on the telephone, and emails. When we went for the first meeting with Mr. Garrett and his legal secretary it went extremely well. Both were professional and made us feel welcome. Mr. Garrett was so helpful in explaining everything to us, as this was the first time we've done a bankruptcy. He is very smart and knows the law on bankruptcy very well. I would recommend Mr. Garrett to anyone who needs the services he offers. We are glad it all went so well. Thanks Mr. Garrett.

Anderson & Associates became part of my life at a very vulnerable time. I was involved in an auto accident that not only took my car away but my sense of comfort in busy traffic.
One phone call to this firm and I was all in. The staff was top notch experienced and did everything for me. They assured me to take it easy and they will take care of all the madness, which they fulfilled and then some.
The resolution from Anderson & Associates was more than expected and justified.
With reassurance from my attorney Lynn Anderson, I no longer have fear of what I experienced the day of my wreck.
My gratitude is endless to the professional and caring staff of Anderson & Associates.

Absolutely phenomenal team at Conner and Winters. I was represented by Brad and Kayla for a post-divorce decree correction and had my case settled quickly and professionally. Please keep in mind, having your case work i.e. paperwork ready for your legal representation does help but Brad and Kayla effectively and efficiently handled my case that laid out a game plan from day one. I had to hire another lawyer from their firm for further litigation, Ryan, and he handled my case effectively as well. Conner and Winters set a very high bar for litigation and I would re-hire them without hesitation.

MOSIAH OLVERA represented in a master hearing and got the case dismissed. His legal expertise and ability to communicate made a world of difference in the case. He didn’t have much time before the actual hearing but even with such little time he did everything in his power to get it dismissed, I am so thankful for him. I also met Eddie Erwin he came in and greeted me, he was very assuring I was in good hands. If you need attorneys who truly care about their clients Erwin law office is it! Even their receptionist is so sweet and helpful.

My name is Tina Anderson I’m originally from New Orleans I was in a very serious situation where I was facing up to ten years in prison. Mr. Keaton was very transparent with me concerning my case. He answered all calls and questions my husband and I had before he took on the case and during the entirety of the case. Mr. Taylor was very knowledgeable he showed up on time for every court appearance was extremely professional. My case was ultimately dismissed which is very rare especially because CPS filed the charges against me. I really appreciate Mr.Taylor! I’m so glad to be back in New Orleans! Thank you so much for representing me!

In my most challenging hour, when others had failed me or actively sought to undermine my pursuit of justice, I was fortunate to find a lawyer whose actions echoed the virtues of an honorable yet often overlooked historical figure: Roger Williams, the founder of Providence Colony. Just as Williams upheld his principles against the prevailing norms of his time, Jeff Bacon exemplified courage, integrity, and an unwavering commitment to fairness in a legal battle fraught with adversity.
While many in the colonies treated Native Americans with disdain, Roger Williams looked beyond prejudice. He forged relationships based on respect, understanding, and shared humanity, enabling him to secure the land for Providence peacefully and honorably. In much the same way, Jeff Bacon chose to see through the defamatory claims and pressure tactics employed by opposing counsel, Mark Graziano. Where others might have hesitated, Mr. Bacon stood firm, refusing to be swayed by baseless accusations—claims that absurdly painted me as a member of the “Canadian Mafia” or a danger to those around me.
Instead of faltering, Mr. Bacon embodied ethical fortitude. He took on my case with empathy and honesty, defending me against tactics that would have discouraged even the most seasoned attorneys. In doing so, he exposed the games being played and shone a light on the unfair pressures that had plagued my pursuit of justice.
Though he may not yet possess decades of experience, Mr. Bacon’s strength of character—his respect, steadfastness, and dedication—set him apart as truly invaluable. Under an impossible timeline and amid immense pressure, he provided me with the legal representation I not only needed but deserved. His actions remind me that courage and integrity can prevail, even in the most trying of circumstances.

I do not normally do reviews but when my life got changed for the better by this amazing law firm and Attorney, I had to write one!!
I used Stratton Family Law for my Divorce and Child Custody Battle. I live out of state, and they were amazing throughout the whole process. They made sure to stay in contact with me and did not slack or fall behind on paperwork or communications. My Attorney Lillian Doyle was the absolute best. It was like working with someone that truly cared about what was going on. She made sure that not only I was taken care of, but she took into consideration my daughter as well. Lillian made sure that I understood the whole process from start to finish. She was kind but very firm in the courtroom and helped me win an almost 2-year battle. Without Lillian I do not know what I would have done.
Thank you all again so much from the bottom of my heart. Both parties came out unscathed in the end and that is all the most of us can hope for in a Divorce and Child Custody Battle that things go smooth, and no blow-ups happen.
I cannot say enough nice and positive things about the Stratton Law Firm as well as my Attorney Lillian Doyle. 5+ stars all day long!!

For over 10 years, I battled with visitation denials, OK CPS investigations with the custodial parent, my X taking the children to 3 different states and 4 previous lawyers. Scott is the first lawyer that I found to be a true advocate for Father’s Rights and the rights of a Non-Custodial Parent. Scott is a brilliant litigator and it was truly impressive to see him in court. I actually felt bad for opposing counsel since, Scott was extremely professional, he held my X accountable for the first time and we were well prepared for the fight. Military law group was timely in their actions and filings. You do get what you pay for with Military Law, which is a lawyer that respects you as a person experiencing hardship with your custody/visiation, and Scott fights for you with the tenacity of a warrior and veteran.

This review is in English and Spanish. Esta revision tambien es encuentra en espanol
When I started doing research online on becoming a citizen I realized I was not going to be capable of filling out USCIS forms so I decided to hire a professional. Mr. Sobel was the only attorney that was able to see us on a sunday as my husband works during the week.
After the consultation Mr. Sobel left us with the impression that he was a professional that would take pride of his work. He also shared that he had worked for Pipeliners Local Union 798 just like my husband. After writing a check for $1,500 I gave him all the necessary documents that had all my information and my name. After two months of the consultation I realized I had made the worst mistake by hiring and paying Mr. Sobel for his services and that his firm does not take pride of their work.
I ran into three problems with Mr. Sobel
1. Mr. Sobel mistyped my address. His typo caused for me not to received very important documents/notices from USCIS from June 29 to November 24, 2014. To top the typo Ms. Coulter tried to cover up the fact that they had mistyped my address by lying to me.
2. Mr. Sobel received a RFE from USCIS, I did not since USCIS had my neighbors address on my file, and wanted me to pay $750 for a response that was very simple to do and that was out of my budget. After two typos I decided not to allow Mr. Sobel do the response and informed his firm that I was going to do my own response. After I had informed firm, Mr. Sobel withdrew from representing me. If you hire him and something comes up for your case he will expect you to pay or lose his representation.
3. THE WORST ONE
Mr. Sobel mistyped my last name on I-765. I had reviewed my packet with Ms. Coulter and we both did not catch any errors as she flipped the pages of the packet. I asked for a copy of my packet but was rejected and Ms.Coulter assured me I would get a copy. 24 days later I received a copy on my email and I noticed the error. I contacted Ms. Coulter and brought the typo to their attention and asked if the typo would hurt my petition in any way. She responded with no. I received my EAD card with a wrong last name, the name that Mr. Sobel printed on the I-765 application and the only way to fix his typographical error is to resubmit the application with the fee ($465). When I asked Mr. Sobel for a refund of the fee, since I have to fix his error and redo his job, he claimed that it is not his duty to fix it since he no longer represents me and that it was my fault. His front desk employee, Ms. Irene, shared on January 2015 that she usually reviews packets before they are sent off to USCIS, but that she did not reviewed mine. Yet my signed packet sat in his firm for 24 days. So far Mr. Sobel has not done a single thing to fix his typographical error.
Ms. Coulter had told me that the typo was not going to affect my petition yet I can not get a social security number, a job, a drivers license, or even start looking for scholarships.
Mr. Sobel gained $1,000 and I have to redo his job and his SOLUTION TO THE TYPO WAS TO RECOMMEND ME TO GO AHEAD AND GET A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER WITH A WRONG LAST NAME. I did not since that is very illegal. I will be making a complain to the Bar Association.
Please DO NOT trust this attorney with your hard earned money.

What an Immigration Lawyer Can Do for You
An immigration lawyer specializes in helping individuals, families, and businesses navigate the complex immigration process. These lawyers provide legal guidance on various immigration matters, such as obtaining visas, gaining permanent residency (green cards), applying for citizenship, and defending clients in deportation or removal proceedings. Immigration lawyers also assist with employment-based immigration, asylum applications, and resolving issues related to visas or immigration status.
Whether you're trying to immigrate to the U.S., facing deportation, or sponsoring an employee or family member for a visa, an immigration lawyer can help you understand your legal options and navigate the often complicated legal system.
When Should I Hire an Immigration Lawyer?
Hiring an immigration lawyer is beneficial in many situations where you are dealing with U.S. immigration laws, whether for personal or business reasons. Common reasons to hire an immigration lawyer include:
- Visa applications: If you need assistance applying for a visa, whether it's a work visa (H-1B), student visa (F-1), or tourist visa (B-1/B-2), a lawyer can help ensure the application is properly completed and submitted.
- Green card applications: If you're seeking permanent residency, an immigration lawyer can guide you through the process, whether through family sponsorship, employment, or the Diversity Visa (lottery) program.
- Deportation or removal defense: If you’re facing deportation or removal from the U.S., a lawyer can defend your case in immigration court and seek to prevent removal.
- Asylum applications: If you’re seeking asylum due to persecution or fear of persecution in your home country, a lawyer can help you prepare a strong case and file for asylum.
- Family reunification: If you're a U.S. citizen or permanent resident looking to bring family members to the U.S., a lawyer can assist with the family sponsorship process.
- Citizenship and naturalization: If you're ready to apply for U.S. citizenship, a lawyer can help you navigate the naturalization process and ensure you meet all the requirements.
- Business immigration: If you're an employer seeking to hire foreign workers, a lawyer can assist with employment-based visas, labor certification, and compliance with immigration regulations.
- Special immigration categories: Immigration lawyers also handle complex cases, such as visas for victims of human trafficking (T visa), crime victims (U visa), or those seeking Temporary Protected Status (TPS).
Hiring an immigration lawyer early in the process can help you avoid delays, errors, and possible denials due to incomplete or incorrect applications.
What Does an Immigration Lawyer Do?
An immigration lawyer provides a wide range of services to help clients with their immigration needs, whether personal or business-related. Their tasks often include:
- Assisting with visa applications: Helping clients fill out and submit visa applications, ensuring all documentation is complete and accurate.
- Filing for green cards and permanent residency: Guiding clients through the process of applying for a green card, including family-based, employment-based, or other forms of residency.
- Defending against deportation or removal: Representing clients in immigration court who are facing deportation and working to prevent removal from the U.S.
- Preparing asylum cases: Assisting clients in applying for asylum based on fear of persecution in their home country due to race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group.
- Handling citizenship applications: Helping lawful permanent residents apply for naturalization and ensuring they meet all the legal requirements for U.S. citizenship.
- Employment-based immigration: Assisting employers with the process of sponsoring foreign workers for temporary or permanent visas, including H-1B, L-1, and EB-1 through EB-5 visas.
- Representation in immigration interviews: Preparing clients for immigration interviews and attending interviews at U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) offices.
- Appealing denied applications: If a visa, green card, or citizenship application is denied, a lawyer can file appeals or motions to reopen or reconsider the case.
How Are Immigration Lawyers Paid?
Immigration lawyers generally charge for their services based on the type of immigration case and the complexity of the legal work involved. Common payment structures include:
- Flat fee: Many immigration lawyers charge a flat fee for specific services, such as preparing a visa application, green card petition, or citizenship application. Flat fees help clients know upfront what the legal costs will be for a particular service.
- Hourly rate: For more complex cases, such as deportation defense or appeals, some lawyers charge by the hour. Hourly rates vary depending on the lawyer's experience and the complexity of the case.
- Retainer: For ongoing immigration matters, some clients may need to pay a retainer, which is an upfront payment billed against as the lawyer works on the case.
- Pro bono or sliding scale: Some immigration lawyers or nonprofit organizations may offer free or low-cost services for clients with limited financial means, particularly in asylum or humanitarian cases.
It’s essential to discuss the fee structure with your lawyer during the initial consultation to understand the costs and payment arrangements.
How Much Does an Immigration Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring an immigration lawyer varies based on the type of legal service required, the lawyer's experience, and the complexity of the case. General cost estimates include:
- Visa applications: For help with visa applications (e.g., H-1B, L-1, F-1), legal fees may range from $2,000 to $7,500, depending on the complexity and the type of visa.
- Green card applications: Fees for family-based or employment-based green card applications typically range from $3,000 to $10,000, depending on the case.
- Deportation defense: For defending clients in removal proceedings, costs can range from $5,000 to $15,000 or more, depending on the complexity of the case and how long the case takes.
- Asylum cases: Asylum applications may range from $2,000 to $10,000, depending on whether the case is defensive (in removal proceedings) or affirmative (not in removal proceedings).
- Citizenship applications: Legal fees for filing a naturalization application usually range from $1,500 to $5,000, depending on the complexity of the client’s immigration history.
- Business immigration services: Fees for assisting businesses with employment-based visas (such as H-1B or EB-5 visas) often range from $3,000 to $10,000 or more.
Always ask for a clear breakdown of costs and fee arrangements before proceeding with legal services.
Top Questions to Ask an Immigration Lawyer
Before hiring an immigration lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure they have the experience and expertise to handle your case effectively. Important questions to ask include:
-
What experience do you have with immigration cases like mine?
Ensure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it’s family-based immigration, employment visas, or asylum. -
How do you charge for your services?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a flat fee, hourly rate, or retainer, and ask for a detailed estimate of the total cost. -
What is the likelihood of success in my case?
Ask for an honest assessment of your case and the potential outcomes, including any challenges you might face. -
How long will the process take?
Immigration cases can take time, so ask how long it may take to process your application or resolve your legal issue. -
Will you handle my case personally?
In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may handle parts of your case. Make sure you know who will be working on your case directly. -
What documents do I need to provide?
Ask the lawyer about the documentation required to support your case, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, or employment contracts.
How to Check the Credibility of an Immigration Lawyer
To ensure you are hiring a reputable immigration lawyer, take the following steps to verify their credentials and track record:
- Check their state bar status: Confirm with your state bar association that the lawyer is licensed to practice and has no disciplinary actions against them.
- Look for specific immigration law experience: Review the lawyer’s website or professional profile to ensure they specialize in immigration law and have experience handling cases like yours.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, or Google to see what previous clients have said about the lawyer’s professionalism and success rate.
- Ask for references: A credible lawyer should be willing to provide references from past clients who can speak to their ability to handle immigration cases.
- Check for industry affiliations: Membership in organizations like the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) can indicate the lawyer’s expertise and commitment to immigration law.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To make the most out of your first consultation with an immigration lawyer, it’s important to come prepared with relevant documents and information. Here’s what you should bring:
- Passport and immigration documents: Bring your passport, visa, and any documents related to your current immigration status.
- Family documents: If you're applying for a family-based visa or green card, bring marriage certificates, birth certificates, and proof of family relationships.
- Employment information: For employment-based visas, provide your employment contract, offer letter, or other documentation of your job.
- Criminal records (if applicable): If you have any criminal history, bring copies of court records and other relevant documents.
- Timeline of events: Provide a clear timeline of any prior immigration applications, visas, or issues with immigration authorities.
- List of questions: Prepare any questions you have about your immigration case, the process, costs, and the likelihood of success.
By preparing thoroughly for your consultation, you can help the lawyer understand your case more effectively and get the best possible legal advice on how to proceed.
