  In 1981 at the age of 13, I arrived in the US as a refugee and received my green card shortly thereafter. In my youth, I committed multiple offenses, one of which was serious enough to be considered an "aggravated felony" for immigration purposes. However, despite of my record, I still wanted to become a citizen so that I could travel internationally without having to worry if I would clear immigration and customs upon returning. I also knew that my case would be complex and that I needed a good and experienced attorney to help me. My search started in 2010 (by this time I have been living in the US as a green card holder for almost 30 years). I contacted multiple highly rated immigration attorneys and felt the most comfortable with Mr. Chavez. The process began with the office conducting a comprehensive review of my background and obtaining certified copies of court records. The work was impressive as they did not miss anything, and I know for certain that I couldn't have done it myself. After carefully reviewing my record, Mr. Chavez recommended that, for now, I should not apply for citizenship because the risk was too high that USCIS could start removal proceeding against me. His strategy was for me to continue to follow the law, volunteer my time, and wait until the law is more favorable to my case before applying. I was devastated with this news because to me it meant to forget about ever becoming a citizen and this was the end of the road. However, I didn't give up and neither did Mr. Chavez. I set a reminder to send an email to Mr. Chavez every few months just to check if there are any changes to the law that would benefit me. Then six years later (2016), Mr. Chavez contacted me to let me know that there is a pending case with the Supreme Court that could help me. (The case is Mathis v. United States). After determining that Mathis v. United States helped my situation, Mr. Chavez recommended that I apply for citizenship. With renewed confidence (on my part), and with the help of the office, we submitted my N-400 application in December 2016. On 03/22/2018, I had my interview with USCIS. After the interview, the Officer stated that because my case was complicated, he needed more time to review (this usually means a long delay). Then on 03/30/2018, I received a phone call from the Officer (who was great) to inform me that my case was finally approved. Wooohooo, this was one of the best news I have received in a long time!!!! After taking the Oath and receiving my certificate of naturalization on 04/17/2018, I feel as if I have been reborn, and I am forever grateful for the work done by Mr. Chavez and the support staff. So if you need help with any immigration matter, don’t hesitate to contact the office of Mr. Chavez and Valko.

  Mr. Chavez and Mrs. Boe thank you so much for helping my husband get his green card! It was a GREAT SUCCESS! After my husband and I got married, we were very skeptical about the I-130 petition process. My husband is Italian and is on a rotational job in the Middle East. The process seemed tedious, time-consuming and complicated. However, after we met with Mr. Chavez, he walked us through the process and made it very simple. Mr. Chavez and Mrs. Boe advised us what documents to collect and assisted us in filling out the I-130 forms in the fall of 2016. Within a few weeks, the application was filled with the USCIS. They answered all our questions (even on the weekends!) and went beyond and above to give us all the information needed. By winter of 2017, the I-130 petition was approved and my husband received his green card. We are a very happy couple and will be forever be thankful for their guidance through the immigration process.

  My case was not a complicated however; it was suppose to be expedited from the start. There were a few set back but all and all I feel like what finally got my case going smoothly was getting a paralegal that listen to me and put action into her words. Christine was a blessing to work with and she definite made the difference in our situation. We are so happy and after 4 years of marriage my husband and I are just now being able to begin a normal life together. Christine thank you so much for hanging in there with us til the very end!! Blessing, LeGranta Walker

  I had a very unique case involving a waiver and from the start to finish the attorneys were clear and very helpful with their responses. That's what made me decide to go ahead and hire them and that turned to be the best decision of my life as it changed my life forever. I am forever grateful to Mr. Lee, Beatrice and Christine for not taking for granted any piece of information that we had to present for the waiver. After 18 years my struggle has come to an end and i can finally breathe.....a big weight has lifted of my shoulder and that's all due to their hard work and diligence. You know very well from the start that they are experts on immigration issues and you definitely want to hire the best for your case and speaking on my personal experience having had a positive outcome they are the best there is. You will definitely not regret hiring them as your attorneys. I will forever be grateful to them and their hard work. Thank you to everyone who made my case a winning one,
