HIGHLY RECOMMEND I highly recommend services of this law firm. Michael Smallbone’s firm and everyone at her office did an incredible job with our case which had a positive outcome. Law firm was always on top of things. He went above and beyond during our long process and did everything she could to ensure a successful outcome. A perfect professional and great mentor Michael Smallbone’ s was very effective getting my applications through all the required processes. He is very meticulous, detail oriented and timely. Michael and his team followed all the necessary steps, never missed deadlines, expedited the procedures and made sure everything submitted was perfect down to the smallest detail. Michael Smallbone’ s is wonderful not only as a professional but also as a friend and coach, makes the psychological factor of going through the applications much easier and less stressful. In summary, a great lawyer and individual.

I was a very hesitant client in the beginning thanks to the overwhelming amount of information online in regards to moving and working internationally. Michael and his team gave me the confidence I needed and after a surprisingly easy experience I now have the visa I have wanted for years. Cannot recommend Michael and his team highly enough. Thanks mate!

Within hours of being introduced to Michael, it felt like we were old friends! His knowledge, experience and professionalism is second to none. In much less time that I could have imagined, he got my O1 renewed. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs an Immigration Attorney. Michael and his team are the best! - Kechi

After having previously used a different attorney, who completely ruined my pending case and left me with a NOID (notice of intent to deny) I was referred to Michael. Within less than a month, Michael was able to get me approved for a green card. This is something my previous attorney was unable to do over a THREE YEAR period - and within a month Michael had me an approved i140. Due to some further unforeseen circumstances (related to my previous attorney and pending case) my wife and I retained Michael again for help with our i130 (which had the original RFE/NOID). Michael was able to attend our interview with USCIS and we had an approval the following day for our i130 and a few days later we got an e-mail that our i485 was approved. I am happy to say without a doubt that these approvals are 100% thanks to the hard and diligent work of Michael. He went above and beyond, he was always calm (and able to calm my wife and I) and always available. Having gone through the stress of three years of USCIS interviews, NOIDs and on-going drama - Michael was able to do what my wife and I thought was never going to happen, which was get us approved.

Best (and most affordable) Immigration Lawyer in the US! I was referred to Michael Smallbone by a friend of mine who went through the process of obtaining a green card. I wasn't disappointed. He is always available to answer my questions (even during late hours of the night) and is very easy to work with. The whole tedious immigration process felt like a breeze having Michael on my side. I know of a lot of other people who also used him for immigration purposes and they share the same great experience Michael gave them. (not surprisingly). I will continue to refer Michael to anyone in need of an immigration lawyer. Thank you Michael Smallbone!!

Having signed an Agreement with an Agent who would be helping my career in the US, I sought out an attorney to assist me in applying for an 01 petition to work in the US. After reviewing the complex documents and requirements, I knew that I was not qualified to undertake this task myself. The first attorney I spoke to turned out to be a disappointment. He really didn’t understand my needs. A former Manager and well known public figure introduced me to Michael Smallbone, an Immigration Attorney he knew of who had a reputation for getting the job done in a professional and timely manner. Michael Smallbone was a blessing to me. The process was painless and I felt comfortable and confident throughout the entire process knowing that I had Michael and his team helping me out! It wasn’t long before my application was approved! And that’s not all. Even after I was approved, he continued offering me his expert advice! I recommend him to all of my friends! Professional, customer service is amazing, and just a nice and friendly guy! Jay, Inspiration Speaker, Vlogger & Writer

I would not hesitate to recommend Mr. Smallbone to anyone, his transparency, communication, consistency, professionalism and just how he stays on top of things are second to none. I was totally satisfied with the amount of time he took to finalise my case as from putting in my application to recieving my permanent residency took just a little over three months, the experience was nothing short of AMAZING!!! I think it was a direct blessing from God to have come in contact with Mr. Michael Smallbone. Thank you so very much Michael, all my future references will be directed to you. Cheers!

I was on an O-1 visa and was looking to become a US permanent resident after marrying to a US citizen. A friend of mine recommended Michael Smallbone and I'm so glad I hired him. He made the whole application process feel quite effortless. He is personable, professional, efficient and experienced. He has a great working knowledge of the ins and outs of US immigration and a good relationship with all the applicable USCIS offices in the country. We had a few unexpected road bumps in our case and Michael navigated them all with skill, humor and ease. He was never worried or rushed, but did his job with care and excellence. He explained clearly what was required of us, what was involved in every step, and took all the stress out of applying for my green card. It is an absolute honor to write this review and recommend Michael. I've dealt with quite a few immigration attorneys over the years and my experience with Michael was by far the best. I'm now very happy to be the proud owner of a US green card!

Michael Smallbone has advised me with multiple contracts for my corporate and entertainment clients for over ten years. He has always helped move things forward toward an agreement that serves both parties (me and my clients). His communication is succinct and effective. I would highly recommend Michael Smallbone.

Michael Smallbone gave us the professional and very specific help needed to hire a new employee from Australia. He had all the knowledge and experience to navigate the challenging immigration system. He made the process as smooth and seamless as possible. I would highly recommend Mr. Smallbone for his ability to navigate all areas of immigration law.
