You might think that all visas are the same, or that it should be easy to obtain a visa or you might just not know under what visa to apply for. There are two categories of U.S. Visas: Immigrant Visa and Nonimmigrant Visa.
A visa is for a citizen of a foreign country (not the U.S.) and it's important to remember that the visa simply indicates that your application has been reviewed by an U.S. consular officer at an American embassy or consulate and the consular officer has determined that you're eligible to enter the U.S. for a specific purpose.The Consular affairs are the responsibility of the U.S. Department of State.

Immigration is a very complicated process. My case was stuck at USCIS for more than 2 years despite my calls and emails to them asking for a decision. Mr. Yaniv field a mandamus action against them and within 2 months I received an interview and my case was approved. I am very grateful for all the help I received from your firm. I will definitely recommend you to many of my friends and family.

From our first consultation to receiving the green card from USCIS, Yaniv and his team handled our case with plenty of care and attention despite the challenges presented during the COVID pandemic. Yaniv is a great partner to have on your side for the green card application process. He will swiftly answer any questions or concerns you may have, and he’s a highly knowledgeable immigration attorney. His fees are also very reasonable for the services that you receive. Also, his staff attorney, Stephanie, was a great asset when we visited USCIS for the final decision on our case. I’d highly recommend

Professional and very efficient lawyer with an amazing staff who prioritizes clients and handle cases the best way possible to obtain positive outcomes. Just a few months after I took my immigration case to Mr Lavy it was approved and I was able to get the EAD or work permit and now I'm a step closer to obtaining my green card. Thanks Feiner & Lavy attorneys.

Atty Yaniv And his staff help me from the very start of my immigration process..Carla is amazing. She prefers all my documents for USCIS. And she briefs me all the time about all the necessary steps. It was so tedious but at the end I got my GC as expected. Atty Yaniv prepairs us for the interview. He made sure we are doing it right. He reviews all our documents. For almost 3 years being with them, the only thing I did is submit the documents they need from me and they will do the rest..Atty Yaniv is one of the finest and excellent immigration lawyer we have in NY..their services deserve 5 star

This law firm helped me so much!!! These people give their heart and all they can to the clients and i know a few people that are extremely happy with the service they have received from this Attorney. I am talking about Yaniv Lavy, they had one goal in mind and it was to get me what i wanted. Along the way, things got more complicated and they kept working hard for me and the get the goal without even charging me extra. I am really recommending him and before people are writing bad reviews, they should try the service or the free consultation, because that's where i realized i want to use

I came here panicking , I emailed 4 other firms and they got back to me first. I didn't know what to do last year during xmas. My husband just proposed and I just got out of college. I am Canadian but we wanted to stay together in the us because he had a good paying stable job. At the time I was on opt expired on June and had no idea where to even start. It was extremely stressful because I didn't want to go back to canada and have to get a K1 visa again. I went to the office and Gadi. helped us and they told me not to worry since our case was relatively easy.
They showed me a chart

I decided to apply for an N600 since I qualified and generally wanted an American passport. From the beginning of the process these people were very professional and competent. I felt at ease throughout the process and Jihan was awesome!! She's very caring and is really ahead of our time in getting things done.

My journey was very tough and long. I was in process in front of uscis for 3 long yeas. I lost hope several times. I had 2 previous attorneys that get me no where!!!! lots of promises and money spent with absolutely no results.
when I first got the recommendation from my co worker to contact Yaniv Lavy I was very skeptical. the price seemed to be high, but he gave me back the faith.
throughout the journey Greg Pearl is super nice and talented and he has responded to EVERY single email or phone call and made me super informed along the way.
After less than a year I got my GREEN CARD.

I came to Mr. Lavy after I got a lot of recommendation about his professional and dedicated work.
I'm a jewelry designer who needed O-1 visa so I can work and live in NYC.
O-1 Visa is considered to be one of the toughest visas to get, especially in these times.
But thanks to Mr. Lavy and he's devoted staff, we've managed to succeed and now I'm a proud owner of an O-1 visa!!
I want to thank Mr. Lavy and he dedicated staff, especially Jihan and Greg, for a great, professional and quick work and I'm happy to give them five stars!
