Client Reviews & Commendations

Excellent. Extremely Capable and Knowledgeable
AB (Current Client) on Oct. 27, 2019

We hired Stuart based on the extremely high recommendations that he had received from others. He was absolutely amazing to work with and helped us understand and navigate the process. He was extremely attentive and very responsive to any questions we had or any clarifications that we needed. He is very knowledgeable and experienced and made the process so much smoother and easier for us. Definitely the best and we consider ourselves to be very lucky to have him. Very highly recommended!

Highly recommended
Artem Nosulchik (Former Client) on Jan. 9, 2020

We hired Stuart by recommendation from my friend who confidently claimed that Stu is the best immigration lawyer he ever worked with. And now I can confirm it from my own experience — Stuart J. Reich is a very professional, detail-oriented and highly experienced immigration attorney. We had a chance to work with him regarding RFE we got from UCSIS for our case and we never regret it. He always responded timely and provided honest replies to our questions regarding our case, process and possible outcomes. Looking forward to work with Stuart in the future. Highly recommended. Thank you.

Excellent!
Ana Petroni (Current Client) on Jan. 16, 2020

A friend of mine recommended me to get in touch with Stuart and I’m so glad I did. He was very responsive to all my questions through the whole processes witch it was very much appreciated given how stressful it was, he knew how to answer my questions in a compassionate yet realistic way. I’d 100% recommend him to anyone who needs legal advice related to immigration. Thanks again Stuart!

Excellent Legal Service!
Ankit S (Former Client) on Mar. 4, 2020

This is the second time we engaged Stu, this time for permanent residency sponsorship of my parents. Because my parents were living outside the US it required a thorough application and close coordination at every phase of the process, especially in the lead up to the counselor interview. Stu was meticulous throughout the process! He was always responsive, detailed oriented and never hesitated to elaborate or discuss any topic at length. He patiently responded to all our questions and came up with options whenever we hit a wall, especially when gathering documents for the I130. Our application period also coincided with some uncertainty due to policy changes under the Trump administration. Stu was up-to-date with immigration policy changes and made sure we over-prepare for any potential implications to our application process. Closer to the interview, his office set up a conference call with my parents and I to walk us through the process, what to expect during the interview, watch outs and key information that we needed to prepare ourselves with. Great experience overall and I highly recommend him for any immigration related services.

Trustworthy, kind, responsive, patient. Best attorney ever!
Ana O (Current Client) on Jun. 17, 2020

I would highly recommend Mr. Stuart Reich for his law services. When I first came to him I though I have a difficult case for obtaining a permanent Green Card but he calmed me down immediately and assured me there is nothing to worry about. He made the application process very easy where he was always on point with the paperwork he needs from me, responding emails in short time, giving explanatory answers to every question, as well as filing on time. When USCIS asked for additional paperwork he handled that with ease as well and with all his help I obtained my Permanent Green Card even earlier than expected. What mattered to me the most were his words from our firrst meeting how despite of my difficult case I will end up obtaining it so I kept repeating that while I was waiting. In other words he gave me confidence by being trustworthy, very kind and on the other hand very responsive and professional. Thank you so much Mr. Reich.
