I started my I-140 process in February 2020. I contacted Mr.Asim Jamal regarding my queries and he was prompt to reply all of them. We received our greencard yesterday and we are very thankful to Akhtar and Chavez group for guiding us in all of our steps. It took a very short period of time. Thank you Asim for everything. You have always been helpful to us and we highly recommend Akhtar and Chavez to anyone who are looking for good immigration lawyer.

Attorney Chavez and his partner, Attorney Shabani from Alabama, helped me get my green card after just One year and Two months. All of my friends who started the green card process some time before and at the same time to me are still waiting and worrying about the outcome.
What else can I say for such a high-quality assistant from Chavez and his team?

I can't thank this place enough. They were supportive of me throughout my journey. They did a phenomenal job from the start which was 14 years ago. If there were 100 stars instead of 5 stars, I would use the 100 stars to rate them. I would recommend any immigrant in this country to use their services.

I was working with Asim on my spouse's immigrant visa application. Asim was a tremendous help throughout the entire process. He was very clear and understanding of my concerns. He took the time to explain all questions and concerns I had at any given time. I never felt that my case was pushed aside - it was always a priority in my eyes while working with this office. They take the time to explain everything that's needed in each step of the immigration process. It was less stressful for me with the help of Asim. I would absolutely recommend this firm to anyone. I have already recommended my friends

I was referred to this law firm by friend for getting legal advice.
Initial session was little productive and I was told that they will reach back to me either that day or the next for my concerns which were critical and time sensitive, for which they didn't have an immediate answer. They didn't... and I had followed up the next week and the week after but no response.
Wouldn't recommend them.

I want to take a moment to thank our attorney Mr. Sher Akhtar, and the entire team at Akhtar and Associates for working with me and my wife to get her permanent residency. They were professional, thorough, and exceptionally helpful in working on our case.

Applying for permanent residency is a stressful and anxiety-inducing process, and the complexity of the paperwork and the multiple steps required can be difficult to navigate. Mr. Akhtar made the process simple and straightforward. Whenever there was a potential complication, they let us know and worked with us to solve the problem. In addition
