Attorney Kaehne is a fantastic lawyer. I was wrongly charged with a crime I did not commit and Attorney Kaehne fought to the end for my vindication. Resulted in being found not guilty in trial and it was all due to his hard work and dedication to my case. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who is seeking a lawyer who will fight for them until the end. 5/5 review for a one in a few attorney.

I am very thankful for Chadwick. He helped me reduce a felony charge down to a misdemeanor, and I didn’t have to serve jail time or be placed on probation—only pay fines. He was extremely helpful throughout the entire case and always explained things in a way that made sense. Chadwick was with me every step of the way. I highly recommend him for anyone looking for a dedicated and knowledgeable attorney.

Really disappointed with this firm, did not get value from the $$$ paid. Mysterious issues with their software resulted in 2 of 4 family members having to enter application details into the Grzeca Law software multiple times in efforts to correct incorrect details. We had to repeatedly chase and follow-up on our emails, which were eventually found in their Spam more than once. Finally, despite multiple assurances, the personal information for my Husband was still incorrect when he attended his interview - the Officer had to manually correct the form. This is not the experience we expected when entering into a Contract for assistance with our Naturalization Application. There was no acknowledgement of the inconvenience we were caused, no apology and not once did they offer to 'make right' the situation. Our case was straight forward, there's no reason for the complications that ensued.

After working with this firm for years, I had an extremely disappointing interaction earlier this year. I hired this law firm to set up a trust that was outlined in my parents’ will. I had a single meeting in which a lawyer gathered information from me and then sent the lawyer vthe will to review, with the understanding that they would set up the trust. The lawyer that I met with left the firm. The firm told me that they no longer had anyone who could set up the trust. I had already paid them $400 — for which I received no legal advice and no trust documents. I asked for them to refund the money, as they did not do the task and I got no legal advice, and they refused.

We live in Waukesha County and needed a "good" family law lawyer. We hired a local law firm who seemed to have the right stuff. 3/4 of the way through our family court matter, we had to fire our lawyer. We heard about John Cabranes through a work associate and made the call. We met with him and he made us feel so comfortable. He didn't mince words about the status of our case or the potential for a hopeful outcome, since our previous lawyer mucked things up procedurally from a legal perspective. Regardless, he was tough and aggressive in the court room. He presented case law and rulings that had the opposition attorney's head spinning. John is a great advocate for his clients and represents and fights for their well-being -- AND -- he's a really nice guy! His associate Cynthia Herber was involved in our case. She, too, is compassionate toward we, the client; and, tough in legal matters. We strongly recommend Cabranes Law Offices if you live anywhere in Southeast Wisconsin.

Mindy was incredibly knowledgeable about my situation and explained everything clearly about my case, always keeping me updated throughout the process and putting in incredible work which gave me a huge peace of mind. I was fighting a lot of felony’s and facing major time as I was already a recent prior felon. She put forth dedication and determination to fight for me unlike ANY lawyer I have ever had represent me. Her strong work resulted in an incredible outcome that I didn’t think was even possible with what I was facing. I have had 6+ lawyers in the last 3/4 years and would only and highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance. She is truly the best in the business. She doesn't look at her clients as “just another client” like alot of lawyers do. She goes out of her way to help you out with anything you ask her. She truly and deeply cares about the person as a whole and believes everyone should have a 2nd chance at life. Thank you again for everything Mindy.

I have employed dozens of lawyers in my life--but never felt strongly enough to review one on AVVO. Cain assisted us with completing my wife's green card application, travel permit application and sponsorship paperwork. I have two graduate degrees (business, not law) but would not have wanted to submit these forms without competent counsel. Our application was accepted without issue, my wife has already had her biometrics meeting, and I am confident that everything will go smoothly from here forward, owing to Cain's excellent work upfront. I cannot recommend him enough! Five stars. Grace’s greencard was approved earlier this week and arrived today. Thanks again, Cain!

My wife and I hired Mr. Cain Oulahan for my K-1 fiance visa process and Green Card (with conditions). Cain was extremely professional and attentive to our needs and questions. I truly felt he cared about our success. I was successfully granted my K-1 visa, as well as my Green Card. I would not recommend going through the marriage-based Green Card process without legal representation because of the intricacy of the case, especially preparing the application documents. Cain helped us organize all our documents and made sure we had more than enough evidence to put forth in our interview. If you find yourself feeling insecure about the daunting immigration process ahead, I strongly recommend reaching out to Cain. We plan on hiring him in the future to remove the conditions on my Green Card.

Robin Dalton was the one of my immigration lawyer. She was so nice when I talked to her for the first time and she listens me well. She is very capable and intelligent woman. We went through to file a vawa case started September 2015 and I got my 10 year Green Card March 2018. It took so long but it was worth it. We had to be patience all the way.

Robin Dalton provided support with getting my permanent residency permit (10 year green card). When I was referred to Robin, I only had a temporary green card that was about to expire, and I was going through a highly contested divorce from an abusive husband. Robin helped me get my case together. She filed all the paperwork, and several months later my new green card was mailed to me. I did not even have to go to an interview.

Originally, I contacted Thomas via email explaining that my husband's immigration situation was complicated and that we really needed to speak to a lawyer to see what our options were. During a free consultation over the phone, Thomas convinced us that he could advise us on exactly what to do. He clearly stated how much it would cost to take the case and do all the work himself, but he also offered to act as an advisor. Considering our slim budget and imminent relocation, we opted to take Thomas on as our advisor. With only 1 hours consultation, Thomas gave his recommendation and told my husband what paperwork would need to be completed. We did exactly as we were told and with my husband's keep attention to detail with the paperwork and dates, our transition was smooth and easy. You can really tell that Thomas cares and does his best to get you what you need at the lowest cost.

I was emailed an offer to consult, scheduled a zoom meeting with Cedric for next week Tuesday, June 18, 2pm-4pm. I made the $350 payment, then received an email from Stephanie on the same day stating that The Law Center, S.C. was unable to assist me. I was told to contact an attorney in Minnesota where I live, the other family members concerned live in Wisconsin. On The Law Center, S.C. website it states that Cedric is licensed in both Minnesota and Wisconsin. It's definitely not good business to accept, schedule appointments with clients, take their money then decline their case. Especially because your attorney team claims to care about families.

My recent experience with Jessica Birmingham at Hartley Rauch Law Office was top notch. I needed a lot of hand holding \ explanations of what to expect during the 10 month process as a first (and last) timer as a defendant. Jessica was quick to respond to emails and texts, and arrived early to court to review what would happen at the particular moment in the case. Which I definitely needed as I thought I would pass out most times from anxiety. After court she detailed the next steps and the expectations from me. Eventually, through lots of behind the scenes negotiations with the district attorney we came to a favorable agreement. I recommend her if you or a loved one needs a criminal defense attorney in Waukesha Co (and I believe Milw Co too).

Mr. Hattley defense strategy was to have be evaluated for competency from the get go. I leave the hospital on Sep 11 for chest pain, which the hospital wouldnt treat me for because I’ve been put on disruptive list or Do not treat list. On Sep 20, 2022 I submit complaints to the DOJ and Washington OIG regarding my healthcare. Then I am violently arrested and tasered in the chest on OCT 10. I communicated to him several times to request the hospital videos of me being struck in the forehead by police officer while handcuffed with two officer behind me while I’m cooperating .He didn’t follow through and those videos were lost. I requested in person and through email for him to secure the body cam footage of my arrest that happen in West Allis. It took him nearly six months to attain those. He watched the videos with me of the west Allis police using extreme unnecessarily force including one officer choking me with two hands in the hospital bed. My thumb was broken and I had bloody wrists, and a burn mark on my ankle from wear a taser was held. And promised me that this will all go away. The West Allis Police wrote multiple false charges and those body cam videos show clear and concise evidence of their crimes. He then gave me the body cam footage on a flash drive which I watched with my wife. My wife an MPS teacher was hit by a car on 3 different occasions and our apartment was broken into during the trial. Mr. Hartley didn’t fight for me or justice in the courtroom he only saw me as number and disabled veteran and that was his defense strategy. He promised me that this would all go away however he ran away and wouldn’t even help me file an excessive force complaint but he did get the case dismissed due to incompetence and further silenced me to not allow me to testify. The United States Army has now violated all of my civil and Human rights.

I wouldn’t recommend neither of these attorneys. Mr French and Mr Betker are both liars. They will tell you what you want to hear just to get your money. I was promised reimbursement of attorney fees which was more than the amount that I was suing Midas muffler for. Unfortunately, now they refuse to accept responsibility for their fraudulent actions. I trusted these attorneys and now I regret that I gave them my trust. Because now they are denying that they promised me attorney fee reimbursement because they didn’t put their lie in writing. They don’t deserve any rating because they are liars. So don’t trust them, and make sure that they put all of their promises in writing before you give them your money. I never imagined that attorneys would lie to the consumer just to get their money. Beware of these fraudsters.

From day 1of my wife's WC I knew that the people who recommended Mr. French were being modest. His straight forward style is so reassuring and all you have to do is sit back and watch a very knowledgeable attorney slowly and meticulously put the pieces together and get the best result. WC carriers respect him. DO NOT HESITATE TO CALL!

Steven didn’t understand the complexity of my case and lead the case as if it was a straightforward typical case. I had to pay the USCIS fees twice because he didn’t file the documents as he needed to. Almost got denied in I-130 approval. Do not go to this lawyer if your case is complex or if you need an adjustment of status. Very disappointed!

I was very hopeful to get a favorable resolution in my case. I was advised that my outcome wouldn't be that bad. Well, guess again, my experience was horrible. None the less Aileen isn't very responsive while assisting you with your situation. She'll take your money and drag her feet to justify why she taxed so much to handle your case. Before you decide to use Aileen. Do your due diligence on other qualified candidates in the kenosha area. She preys on people who don't have a clue or defend those who don't have money to pay,so clearly they are ok with any outcome. I paid a substantial amount to be deceived. Don't fall for the BS. It's not worth the frustration. I'm still dealing with the negative effects of this entire situation. 😒 I wish there was a 0 stars option.

Julius is a great salesmen who openly and confidently expresses all the great things he can do for your case. Yet, the reality of his abilities is very limited. He prides himself on helping vulnerable people from my community. He goes as far as to call himself "El abogado del pueblo" aka "the lawyer of our village." However, that sentiment doesn't ring true as he and his team had poor communication with me on what was going on. And whenever I would bring this up they would ignore me or directly insult me. They took my money and gave me the bare minimum. Please, mi gente and anyone else reading this. Stay away from this scam artist.

Julius is great at selling you on what he can do for your case. Yet, the reality of his abilities is in fact significantly limited. He prioritizes his personal injury cases over other types of cases. His team--specifically the secretary Rosa Reyes--is rude, insulting, and has poor communication skills. Please, don't waste your money here unless you have to.

Atty. Julius is very humble and compassionate. Even if I had lost hope, he never lost hope in my case. He guided me through the entire process right from the time of accident and treatment till receiving the compensation. He even spoke my language and that was very helpful for me to express my situation to him.

We hired Imhoff & Associates that contracts with Mr Kerner in SE Wisconsin. The retainer we had to pay is 3 times higher than other attorney's we interviewed. We had very little contact as he barely returned emails or phone calls. Under his care the charges against me mounted up as he didn't speak with DA, as our new attorney has. Where other attorney contracts stipulate that $ will be refunded for hours not used, there is a vague clause in his contracts that says they will not refund any $ we paid. If you need action, you should find another attorney.

If you mess up, you are going to be punished- accept that fact. Kerner didn't comfort me or give me that warm, fuzzy feeling- & I understand that lawyers are busy & don't return every call. But when I really needed him to perform, he did,,, and then some. He told me what I needed to do, and he did what he needed to do. Without his expertise, I would have been locked up for a long time. He was able to reach a compromise where both sides were happy. When someone is speaking to a judge on your behalf, you better have a good lawyer. Kerner was very professional & knowledgeable, and his years of experience show when it counts.

Contacted multiple times for different reasons, all legit, complex reasons that requires legal help to navigate effectively. Was turned away every single time and claimed this was due to "a lack of resources." If these lawyers are swamped with cases and cannot feasibly take on anymore, perhaps there should be something done about that. Due to this, individuals and families like mine go without this much needed legal advocacy. Agencies like this are put in place to protect us and are failing to do this. Falling through the cracks is an understatement. It is a terrible fact and one that should not continue to happen upon resources like this being available in Wisconsin.

Over the course of a few months, Duffin promised me to do a task that, honestly, didn't require more than a couple hours of work. He became busy with other work, and kept putting mine off. Then, finally, as he became overwhelmed with other work, he simply dropped mine. Had he said he wasn't interested in the beginning, I could have gotten another lawyer. It was an extremely time-sensitive matter. My conclusion: he cares about some of his clients, maybe, and others don't merit even the time of day. On a previous matter, he simply forgot to do something else that he indicated to me he had done. For months, I was exposed to a contempt of court violation without my knowledge. And, had I not given up on Duffin and gotten another lawyer, I could have ended up in prison.

My family and I were referred by a friend of family to the office for what we were told was simple process. She was supposed to file suit against government but it was never filed. She could not give me proof she did work and yelled at my husband that he’s lying and so we had to go with other attorney. She seemed so nice when met first time but it is clearly a show! No responsibility or anything and she thinks she’s better than us and said hung up phone when we cry to her about what she did.

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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
