DC was nice but I felt like I wasn’t really talking to a lawyer when we met with him virtually. He was wearing a t-shirt and hoodie and although people are home due to the pandemic, the consultation felt very informal and of unimportance. He gave us somewhat helpful information but I would’ve liked an overall better experience.

My wife and I filed our immigration process with a different lawyer; however, we were lucky enough to be redirected to Drake. What DC has done for us in a week surpasses what the other lawyer did in the last whole year and a half. DC took the extra mile to examine the case and speak with us about it. He is calm, honest, experienced, organized, and most importantly not greedy. He definitely knows exactly what he is talking about. He best prepared us for the interview process, we felt confident, safe and protected. Moreover, he is a lot of fun. Don’t be surprised when you hear a clever funny joke

We got in touch with David after an abysmal treatment by an Attorney. He listened to our case attentively, and advised us on the way forward. When we were ready to proceed, He drafted a pre-engagement contract document for us to read through and explained in details our rights and responsibilities. David guided us to a successful outcome in our case. He is time conscious, relates very personally with occasional humor, responds to emails and call promptly. I recommend him 100% to anybody, just find out and see for yourself.
Extremely friendly and very caring.

We came in Drake office back in 12/2016 with really bad situation in my case. My I-130 was approve but same time I was on deportation with a supervision.
My lawyer was from Chicago IL was keep asking for money but was no progress at all!!! Me and my wife decide to hire Drake. He ask for down payment so he can start work on my case. 6 month later I got my first work authorization and 1/2020 i become a resident of United States 🇺🇸!!!! He’s excellent person with a good communication. He’s like his job and he know what he’s doing!!! I will recommend him to all of my friends with any situation
