Jeff handled the closing for the purchase of my new house and the sale of my existing house…read more During the purchase closing, he discovered a major financing error by my lender that resulted in a significant savings for me. And when a title issue showed up during the sale of my existing home, Jeff went the extra mile to uncover the title insurance policy from when I purchased the property almost 20 years ago. This allowed the sale to proceed with no additional cost to me. It's rare that someone makes you feel like they're dropping everything they're doing just for you, but that's exactly what Jeff did. I cannot recommend him enough.

We wholeheartedly recommend Jeff - he made our somewhat (ahem) "adventurous" home sale as smooth as possible.

Let me take you on a brief journey of my experience with Boston's Immigration attorneys. Aside from…read moreGreg, I won't be using names as I'm not here to bad mouth other lawyers- but I feel sharing my experience with several firms will help illustrate the stark contrast between Greg and others that you can hire. In 2015 (?) I went online to find the 'best' immigration firm Boston has to offer. I had a fiancé in a middle eastern country and we needed a K1 visa. In hindsight, I wish I had hired Greg. In a no-cash hindsight reality, I'd fill out the damn paperwork myself. Why? Because I spent $5500 on a firm that has tons of reviews. I thought 'wow' these reviews and fancy degrees must mean that I'm getting top notch talent and he will be in the country super fast!'. I was super wrong. With this particular firm, I only met the big boy once- when I came by to drop off a check, and spoke with him once on a conference call when he wanted me to file a mandamus (which would cost me another 6k). Aside from that, I had a relatively inexperienced attorney (who I really liked) that didn't coach me for or help during the interview- which was brutal. Then this particular firm misfiled a re-application for the work permit, tried to blame it on the USCIS when in reality, it was because their paralegal screwed up. I was young and excited about many reviews. I've learned since then. Fast forward to 2021. A NOID was issued. If you don't know what this is, consider yourself lucky. Its about as scary as it gets. I hired another lawyer who took another $5500 but started making concerning errors. For instance, all the affidavits were the same but she wanted our friends to fill in 'details'. Literally- the same format and phrases. Then my name was misspelled on my own affidavit and my place of birth was incorrect although a two hour interview covered these kinds of basic things. This lawyer wanted to get information on our lives (read: gossip) that didn't sit well with my husband. She literally said it was just for her, as it wasn't going to be included in the response to the USCIS. When a random man who was working in her firm but I had never heard of, reached out instructing me to notarize a document to keep them as council because she was changing the name of her firm, I finally relented. I was upset that she would change the name of her firm while we are responding to a very scary letter. My husband wanted to fire her long before this point, but I didn't want to change horses mid stream. That and clearly I'm no good at hiring OR firing. Ah yes, and I should mention that her work (affidavits that are all the same and 2 zoom calls) cost - you guessed it! $5500. Yes, every dime I sent her was magically spent on all her legal work. We were denied a refund of any sort. As much as that sucks, we have made some hilarious jokes about it (especially as my husband predicted it!) and its become not only a very good lesson, but its something that we can keep referring to and making jokes about for a very long time. Another lawyer steps in. He was a consultant. He was great and I'll write about him in another review as he was never my actual 'lawyer' just someone I used as a sounding board while getting hosed by other legal professionals. Then finally, we hire Greg. This is a guy who will not be pulling the bait and switch that we felt with the first firm or the host of issues that we encountered with the second.  What interesting about Greg is that every single person- from a senator's office to immigration attorneys- every one of them knows who he is. Not only that, but he is spoken of with reverence. He's the best lawyer we've ever hired. You probably don't know this, but he is the former president of the New England chapter of AILA (American Immigration Lawyers Association). This is no small deal. He won't write your affidavits, but you probably want original, authentic voices anyway. We need all kinds of lawyers for stuff and we are sad that Greg can't just handle all our legal needs. He was cheaper, more professional, available at all hours, and seemed to actually care about what happened to us. I don't know how this guy doesn't have hundreds of reviews on all applicable websites. Within a month of hiring him, my husband's green card arrived. He knows immigration law better than anyone you will come across and you will be sad he doesn't offer more services.

Before finding Greg, I had worked with another attorney on a complicated naturalization case. Unfortunately, I was given bad advice that only made things worse. Finding Greg felt like a turning point. From the start, Greg was not only professional and knowledgeable, but also genuinely kind and understanding. After my difficult experience, that personal connection meant a lot. He walked me through every step of the process, clearly explained what to expect, and laid out all the possible outcomes so I always felt informed and prepared. Greg built my case thoroughly, with attention to details that my previous attorney never even inquired about. The preparation was excellent. I felt confident that everything had been thought through and nothing was overlooked. Greg was amazing in helping me through the USCIS interview. He helped me prepare thoroughly ahead of time, walked me through the key points I needed to be ready for, and made sure I felt confident going in. During the interview itself, he was also able to speak directly to the officer on my behalf, which made the whole process feel completely different. It really took a weight off my shoulders, and I felt so much more at ease knowing he was by my side. I'm incredibly grateful for the support Greg and his team gave me. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone going through a complex immigration process.
