John is attentive, responsive and extremely empathetic to people's struggles on Immigration. John knows that the immigration process is a difficult and expensive process so he makes sure that he is provided honest and appropriate assistance depending on the case you have. I would recommend John to anyone, he knows what he is doing and wants only to provide the correct service to his clients.

A few years back I did some re-search and found John Dooney as a recommendation from another lawyer that had moved from the area. From the first moment we met, My husband and I really felt a real connection with John: we appreciated his understanding on our situation, being some of his first same sex clients after DOMA was defeated, and his knowledge and ability to manage our case. In this world of laws is hard to find someone with the honesty and integrity that can help you navigate them. We found that on Nelson Smith and in John in particular. Thanks

Professional in what they do

My first impression of John Dooney during our first consultation for my wife’s unique adjustment of status case that he was very welcoming, knowledgeable and understanding, he walked us through the whole process in a caring and respectful manner and his fees were fair, so I hired him on the spot. John’s behavior was exceptional, he was highly professional, honest, with great conduct and integrity, and his communications (email/call) were in a timely manner .John well prepared and organized all of our paperwork for USCIS from submission to interview day as well as preparing my wife and I for the interview. The whole process went so smooth. It really was fun and a pleasure working with John Dooney. I most definitely RECOMMEND him for all of your Immigration needs!!

Wanted to say thanks to Nelson | Smith, in particular John Dooney. I have known John for many years and I am happy to say that I am super satisfied with his work for me. I would recommend him and the firm for any immigration needs. They understand the ever-changing laws and always kept me updated through the process. Thanks John

I did a lot of research trying to find a GOOD and HONEST lawyer. When I talked to John Dooney I felt honesty in his words and he sounded very knowledgeable too. I couldn't be any happier with the results I got working with John Dooney, it was almost too fast once I was able to do my part of the paperwork. From beginning to end I trusted in John's advice and the process was unbelievably smooth without any problems at all.

I would highly recommend John Dooney to anyone needing immigration help, our experience was very pleasant, he answered all our questions with attention and detail. It was an overall great and professional experience.

Te ayudan lo más q se puede y son sinceros

If you are a same sex couple as we are, who wish to move to the US, I have 2 pieces of advice; start the process early (18 months) and contact Mr. John Dooney III at Nelson Smith LLP. My partner is originally from the USA and has been able to sponsor my green card. However, that’s brings with it a whole bunch of form filling, checks and balances, interviews, online applications, waiting, and more waiting, to reach the final goal. The red tape is unreal. John’s service and professionalism was exceptional. He answered all of our questions in a timely manner, often the same day. He helped us understand all the nuances of our specific case, and even made himself available to attend our final immigration interview in Portland, OR. He was just great to deal with. All his support staff; Meghan, Lydia, Mari, Alejandra and Edwina were excellent also. We couldn’t have got here without them! Thank you John and everyone at Nelson Smith LLP… Nigel and Carl
