TESTIMONIALS

AILA Attorney: "Andrew: Thanks again for the expert help on this. You always come through. That was very big for them. "

HR Manager: "Andrew, We are so very relieved and pleased to hear the good news. A big thank you to you and all in your office who worked on this case. We know it was a challenge and we appreciate your expertise and professionalism. Thank you again. "

Individual Client: "Andrew you have given a great deal of credibility to the profession you work in. I have nothing but praise for your services. "

Corporate Client: "Andrew Thank you very much for your hard work. Your level of professionalism and relentless efforts are unparalleled. I hired two immigration lawyers prior to joining ________ to work on my Green Card and none of them was successful in three years to accomplish what you did in one. Thanks again I genuinely appreciate you high commitment and dedication to serving your clients. "

Individual Client: "Dear Mr. Wilson: Thanks for all of your help. Your assistant, Andrew Shapiro-Zysk, should also be commended for doing a great job of answering my questions. Even if I called at 6pm, he was there to help. No other immigration law firm would answer calls after 4:30pm. I will always refer you to my friends and family from here on out. "
