“The legal representation provided by Peter was honestly exceptional and tailored precisely for my complex situation. My immigration hurdles began in 2010 and did not conclude until 2021. During that lengthy period I had retained the services of about four other attorneys. The service, professionalism, and dedication displayed by Peter was by far the most rewarding and satisfying. He is very responsive to emails and calls directly, sometimes even after usual business hours. The personalized experience is what sealed the deal for me, this guy actually cares and does not go off the radar after being retained. You are the man Peter!”
