Hired Leiva Law Firm for a straightforward N-400 naturalization application. It was one of the…read moreworst professional experiences I've had. The attorney, Scarlett Leiva, demonstrated alarming incompetence on basic immigration law. She could not distinguish between a routine traffic citation (a parking ticket or speeding infraction) and a citation issued by a law enforcement officer -- a fundamental distinction that any immigration attorney handling naturalization cases should know without hesitation. This confusion caused months of unnecessary delays on what should have been a simple application, while I was left chasing clarification on something my $2,000 was supposed to cover. When I finally received the draft application packet, it was riddled with errors. The form referenced "see addendum" but the addendum pages were missing. My employment history was wrong. After I terminated representation and hired competent counsel, my new attorney immediately identified numerous standard supporting documents that Leiva's team never requested or included -- items like spouse proof of citizenship, tax documentation, and ID copies that any competent immigration firm includes as a matter of course. When I followed up on the sluggish timeline, instead of accountability I got a condescending lecture that "frequent follow-up emails do not expedite the review process and can actually slow things down." They also tried to upsell me on an expedited service fee when I expressed urgency about my own case. After termination, with nothing filed, nothing submitted to USCIS, and a draft full of errors, the firm claimed the entire $2,000 flat fee was "fully earned" and refused any refund. Save yourself the money, the stress, and the months of wasted time. Find a lawyer who knows the basics of what they're filing.

My wife and I consulted with multiple Bay Area firms before deciding to go with Kolomejec Law PC,…read moreand we definitely made the right decision in the end. Richard, Neven, and Ana were super helpful, clear, and supportive throughout the whole process of my wife's green card application, and we felt like we could put our trust in the them from the get-go. We didn't feel like we were being talked down to, or that we were being taken advantage of, which is more than can be said about some of the other firms we consulted with prior to landing with Kolomejec Law PC. The whole process took only a few months from first consult-to-interview-to-green card in the mail, and it would have definitely been shorter if it weren't for an income issue on my end. Anyway, long story short, my wife and I fully recommend Kolomejec Law PC to you and our friends/family for any immigration law-related processes. Sending a big thanks and lots of love to this wonderful team.

Fast forward to 2025, i reached back to start the process to apply for my green card. We applied end of August 2025 and green card approved Nov 11th 2025. Just about less than 3 months!! The whole process was very straight forward and quick. Richard and Neven are both extremely knowledgeable and available to answer any questions you may have at any time. I would have a response within the hour and sometimes even on weekends. Richard is very honest and straight forward and says it how it is, which reassured me and my husband. What would've been a very overwhelming process, ended up being very structured and with minimal stress, thanks to his guidance. Even during the interview, he was on call with us, which gave us a peace of mind. His fees are very reasonable for the quality of service you receive, and even now if i have any questions or concerns, he remains available. We will definitely be going back to him in the future and will be recommending him to friends and family as well!

Fuerza Immigration Lawyers- Knowledgeable, Professional, Honest, and Hardworking Team!…read more My dad and I had the pleasure of working with Erika Goncalves, one of the law firm partners at Fuerza. From our first meeting, she presented herself as professional, honest, and knowledgeable about the immigration process. She and her team quickly processed and secured my dad's green card. Moreover, her team regularly communicated with us about my dad's application status and responded promptly to all follow-up inquiries. The investment was reasonable and worth every cent. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Fuerza Law Firm.

I want to start off by saying that we completed two cases with this these people. The first one was…read moregreat and we had no problems. The second one we've had a multitude of problems including them giving us false information, withholding important information regarding our case that should've been known from the very beginning and the fact that our case has been tossed around to different attorneys since we started, which turns to another problem when they get our information mixed up and we have to correct them constantly. Another problem is their attitude of their workers, the job feels rushed and feels like they don't want to help us based on the way they choose to speak to us or that they are judging and speaking down to us. After paying around 15k for this service, it seems they are trying to find any excuse to not move on and they present themselves as a scam. Moreover, as another review stated, you have to chase them. They make phone appointments but then cancel or simply don't call, we've had to call them for scheduled appointments just to get a 5 min phone call with hardly any information. We've had scheduled in person appointments where the worker wasn't even present at the office and we've had to get on a zoom call with them, which defeats the whole purpose of our traveling to the office. After they take your money, they like to waste your time and blame it on you.

I was encouraged to continue working with him and was told he was highly regarded, so I gave the relationship another chance. Unfortunately, I continued to feel excluded from important decisions in my own case. At one point, I was informed after the fact that discussions were moving toward settlement and that trial or pretrial preparation would not be necessary because opposing counsel had a settlement agreement prepared. I did not feel adequately consulted during that process. Ultimately, I decided to terminate representation and proceed on my own. I later successfully prevailed in the case without that attorney's assistance. I appreciate the mission of the organization and understand legal aid offices are often overwhelmed, but my personal experience left me feeling unheard and unsupported during a very stressful time. I also acknowledge that others may have very different experiences than mine. This review reflects only my personal experience. I would encourage anyone seeking representation to know their rights, ask questions, and explore multiple legal options before deciding who to work with.
