I have reached Paul 3 time for 3 different cases, I was still here in the US because of Paul Szeto thank you so much for helping me Paul Szeto. 1) In my first case it was delayed by 8 months, Once I reach out Paul Szeto my case was just approved with In 2 weeks. 2) Second case it was almost as my first case I reached out Paul Szeto I got approval quickly not taken much time for approval. 3) Third case I got most probably 18 pages of RFE, I was so upset and depressed, I reached out Paul Szeto, he motivated me and said nothing to worried about and he took up my case, followed up every single day about all the documents and finally my case was approved. Thank You Paul Szeto and his staff especially Alice for their hard work, dedication.
We met Paul when my wife and two kids I539 was in the denied state, We have availed their services for filing an I-539 application to extend/change nonimmigrant status through Nunc-Pro-Tunc, for my wife and two kids and the experience was exceptionally smooth. Attorney Paul Szeto is very conversant about the most recent advancements in immigration practices. We were extremely comfortable and at ease the entire time of the immigration process because of his organized and detailed work which results in the USCIS approved our case. Thanks again for Paul and his Team’s great work. We recommend his services to anyone who is looking for immigration assistance.
I sincerely appreciate Paul’s and his staff’s service helping me getting the green card. Different from other reviews, I just listed some bullet points I still remember. 1) Paul submitted my case during the weekend. 2) Paul always called back within the same day, as little as less than one hour. 3) Paul has successfully handled some not easy situation in my case. 4) Paul charged less than other lawyers I know from friends for accompanying green card interview. Though Paul provided excellent service, I would still recommend applicants spending enough time on being familiar with schedule, policy, proofreading, etc. It is your case at the end of day!
I don’t know where to start. We received our green cards today in the mail and the feeling is beyond words. I’d like to thank Paul Szeto and his staff especially Alice for their hard work, dedication and professional knowledge. Without them I would not be able to obtain my green card. I have a complex case that seems to be going on forever. There were many issues to deal with. Sometimes I was ready to give up but Paul and his staff kept on providing encouragement and support to me throughout the process. They care about their clients. If something doesn’t work, they will tell you about it. I highly recommend Paul Szeto and his law office to others!
