I was referred to the law offices of Valko and Chavez by another attorney in Dallas who i had gone to seek assistance from concerning my immigration case. I met Mr. Chavez in 2007 following a remand of my case from the Fifth Circuit Court, see Omari v. Gonzales(2005). After the remand from the court i appeared pro se before the Immigration Judge(IJ) for cancellation of removal, by then i had been detained by ICE for almost four years and had exhausted my finances, after a series of hearings the IJ granted me Cancellation of Removal, the DHS appealed the decision on grounds that the IJ abused his own discretion I was ordered deported, what followed was another Petition for Review before the appeals court, there the court decided that I had not exhausted my Administrative Remedies since my previous lawyer failed to raise that issue before the IJ. After my attorneys then Jennifer Depalma of Om'yleven and Mayers submitted the petition the DHS agreed that my Fifth Degree conviction under Minnesota was not a Crime Involving Moral Turpitude(CIMT), on October the Board remanded the case back to the IJ and DHS was given an opportunity to provide more evidence to proof that my conviction was a CIMT after a series of hearings, the IJ disregarded the IJ's and ordered my removal again. I once again hired Mr. Chavez to represent me before the Board because I had a lot of faith in him after following his previous arguments before the Board.
On April 28, 2017 the Board of Immigration Appeals agreed with Mr. Chavez's arguments and sustained our appeal and terminated Removal Proceedings, I can assure anybody with any Immigration issue to contact the Law Offices of Valko and Chavez, Mr. Chavez being Certified in Immigration Law knows the ropes when it comes to immigration matters.
I highly recommend this law firm, try them out and you will the real positive results.
Thanks Mr. Chavez and your team for a well done job!!!!!.

Mr. Chavez and his team delevered what they promised and I got my green card way earlier than I anticipated. We first heard about this law firm through a friend who also had a great experience and excellent results. Beatriz, at the Ft Worth office was very friendly, and prompt. She communicated with us regularly and was available to answer our questions along the whole process. We had a great experience and excellent results at Chavez & Valko and definitely would reccomend to a friend.

I love these lawyers... from the beginning they did everything to help my case and were very informative about what I needed it to do. Being from Guatemala I thought it would be very hard but they made it look easy and it was. Just glad I hired them and Beatriz was very helpful. I would recommend them to anyone.

After consulting several lawyers about my case (a little complicated, the truth), none gave me the confidence to put my case in their hands, until I made a consultation with lawyer Chavez, from the beginning he was very kind. On My appointment day he made me feel he understood my case well and how important it was for me, he was like my ally to get out of the complicated situation in which I found myself in. Then my case was passed to Berenice Alcala who was also super professional and super kind, all the questions and doubts that I could have, I had the confidence that she would help me. I really recommend it and if I could give them 10 stars I would. (^_^)

Hoy quiero contar mi historia de como conoci al abogado Nicolas Chavez. Yo lo conoci hace 11 anos y yo escuche sobre el en el consulado salvadoreno. Sin pensarlo hice una cita y en el momento decidimmos comenzar el proceso para traer a mi hijo. Ganando el caso mi hijo tuvo la oportunidad de estar a mi lado.
La historia no terminaria ahi, 11 anos despues espezamos el tramite de mi estate legal en los Estados Unidos. Ambos considimos que mi caso fuese un poco dificil por el dado caso que yo tenia una deportacion. La confienza que ellos me brindaban era tan fuerte que decidimos luchar fuerte para consiguir ese sueno anelado. El abogado Chavez no solamente obtuvo mi perdon legal de parte de las oficinas de imigracion siono que tambien me logro obtener mi residencia legal en Los Estados Unidos. Ahora doy mil gradias a Dios y a el abogado Chavez junto con su equipo quienes jamas perdieron la esperanza y la voluntatad de seguir con el caso.
El motive de esta escritura aparte de ser para contar mi historia tambien es para recomendar a todos los que necesitan ayuda que tansolo hablen con los abogados de Chavez & Valko, LLP y podran ayudarlos de la major manera. Yo he recomendado a los abogados a mis familiars y amigos y ahora quiero traerles mis recomendaciones a todos ustedes tambien.
Mil gracias a los abogados de Chavez & Valko, LLP por toda la yuda brindado por todos estos anos de trabajo fuerte. Gracias a Dios y que Dios los bendiga para que sigan ayudanndo a todas esas personajes que suenan con un dia hacer realidad el sueno Americano.

We hired Nick to represent my husband in obtaining his naturalization since my husband admitted to committing fraud when entering the U.S. and had to submit a fraud waiver. Nick was very kind, professional, and helpful. He made sure we understood the process as well as any possible outcomes. The process went just as he had said and my husband was granted his citizenship. In addition, we hired him for my in-laws immigrant visa process with my husband as the petitioner, both visas which were approved on the spot! The interviewing officer commented that the packets were very well prepared. I would definitely recommend Nick and the Chavez & Valko law firm!

Chávez y Valko son una firma muy profesional y confiable. Han estado colaborando con Cornerstone (organización no lucrativa) dando consultas de cortesía y todos quedan muy satisfechos con sus consultas, algunas de las personas que han ido, ya han contratado sus servicios por la esperanza que les dan en su cambio de estatus. Además cuentan con personal igual de profesional y amable.

Hired Chavez&Valko for 2 cases I-130 and DACA they did a great job with both cases, both of my cases were approved. I always felt like I had an experienced honest team on my side.I then had the opportunity to get employed by this firm and I have to say say that I first hand witnessed the passion Mr.Chavez has for helping people and succeeding the cases that were brought to him. He is involved and always on top and aware of all his cases from the initial consultation to the end . Unlike some other attorneys who you might not even get to meet or charge for a phone call with them. You will get none of that with this law firm. Absolutely the best! I have already and will continue to recommend them!
