Matt and the team at Shaftel Law were great with our case. Timely communication, quick responses to any questions that my husband and I had and all around great experience.

We were always made to feel comfortable and new all risks and benefits before making a decision.

Highly recommended!

I would absolutely recommend Shaftel Law, to anyone who is looking for guidance with their immigration process. I truly believe in all of the hard work that Matt and his team do. The work that they do, they do it selflessly, and with integrity. I have met with other lawyers in the past, and Matt was truly a class act. You need someone with knowledge and someone who is going to take your case serious, and this team truly does that.

Matt, Jessica and Sasha were helpful during the whole way of me applying for permanent Resident Card. It only took us 6 months to get an interview with USCIS and two weeks to get my card in the mail. Knowledgeable and always there to help and answer all the questions I had. And I did have a lot:) definitely recommend them!

Shaftel Law provided excellent legal service. They were personable, professional, and, most importantly, effective in helping me resolve my issues in dealing with the incredibly complicated US immigration system. I am incredibly grateful for Matt Shaftel and his team and would recommend their services to anyone dealing with USCIS.

Matt handled a rather complex citizenship application for my Canadian husband, and we are so pleased with his work. Very reasonable fees, always quick to respond/answer questions, and we really felt like he prioritized any action items needed for the case (getting responses to requests for information handled promptly, not waiting until the deadline). He was very good about checking in with us regularly regarding the status of the case and also giving us insight on how our case was going compared to other recent cases he handled, which was helpful and reassuring in this political climate where changes to immigration law and policy seem to be in the headlines daily!

Matt and his team made my immigration process a breeze. They have been extremely nice, friendly and knowledgeable about immigration law. Every concern I had was explained and resolved immediately. I received my green card in the timely manner as promised with no difficulties whatsoever. I would recommend Shaftel Law to anyone seeking high quality immigration services with no hesitation. They are the best and I am extremely satisfied with their professionalism and hard work. If you need help with any kind of immigration services, don't look any further, Shaftel Law will provide you with everything you need!

I had no idea of the complexity involved in Immigration Law but I can say that this was an extremely easy process because of Shaftel Law. They handled everything from start to finish. Our outcome was positive and my wife is here to stay.

Eu não tinha ideia da complexidade envolvida na Lei de Imigração, mas posso dizer que esse foi um processo extremamente fácil por causa da Lei de Shaftel. Eles lidaram com tudo, do começo ao fim. Nosso resultado foi positivo e minha esposa veio para ficar.

Thank you Matthew for you your great service and brilliant professional experience that helped me a lot to immigrate to the USA. It was really difficult, but you learned my case so profound that you got the main ideas and could highlight every single one in the proper way. I totally recommend Matthew as an attorney, he always does his job for 100% and more!)

I recommend Shaftel Law firm to any one that needs an attorney for immigration purposes. The attorney speaks Spanish. He is very knowledgeable and updated to date on the immigration law changes. He always makes time to get you in if you have questions.

He assisted me with my husband's case to the resolution and until he was able to come back into the states after getting his green card. Truly, he made the process look so easy. From the Gomez-Vargas Family, we want to thank you for your hard work and making this process stress free for the family.

Shaftel Law are a great company. Matt and his team are wonderful. They are honest and truthful something that we love about them. They keep us updated if things changed. If we where in drought Matt and his team reinforced us that are case was good. If we ever had any questions they answered it. We thank Matt and his team for taking good care of us and walking every step with us. We will always recommend Shaftel Law

The Hernandez family thank you !

Matt and his team were great to work with. They always got back to me promptly. They prepared our case extremely well, made sure we had all our questions answered, very friendly, always on top of things. We are very thankful for the great job they did to make our family complete.

Went in for assistance with my naturalization process as I had difficulty with my residency application (stalled) and didn't want any trouble. Matt was great at meeting with us shortly after our request, spent time reviewing our history and then communicating next steps.

It was a very easy and quick transition to getting my paperwork submitted.

Once they received my interview request (even before I had), Matt's team had reached out to meet with me before it. Matt actually attended with me and when a hiccup arose, he was able to jump right in and provide the support needed.

The concern had a quick turn around (about two weeks) and I really believe it was because of his knowledge and advocacy for my rights in the process.

I would strongly recommend any individual going through immigration processes to reach out to Matt and his office.

Matt and his team made the whole process comfortable, worry free. He instilled an invaluable level of confidence and went above and beyond. have already referred 2 other people to him and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Matt was very professional and thorough. Highly recommend Shaftel Law

Shaftel Law Firm helped me with my H1b application process and I can not thank my organization for choosing them.
They were professional and thorough with my paperwork. Their communication skills is very clear and they always answered my questions with patience. I never had issues reaching out to them or getting a response back (usually within a few hours during business hours)!
From the time of application until I received my letter of approval, the team made sure my sponsor and I were informed of all the developments with my case.
I would like to extend my sincere gratitude and appreciation to Matthew, Jessica and Victoria for all their help.
I highly recommend Shaftel Law! :-)
Best,

After having some delays and complications with my citizenship application I knew I needed help from professional. That's when I've hired Shaftel law firm.Matt Shaftel was very helpful and professional and his experience and expertise made me confident that I hired the right person to help me navigate the legal system. Now my case is completed. Thanks!

The whole team at Shaftel law was super helpful! They always got back to me in a very timely manner and were extremely professional when working on our case. They worked together as a team and I very much appreciated how thorough they were in their representation!

The high reviews I see on here don't surprise me - well deserved. We did a fair bit of research before beginning as we had some irregularities, and Matt stood out early on. The consultation phase is overwhelming and it was worth the extra (and expensive) hassle of weeding through other firms to find Shaftel. I respect that Matt includes interview preparation in the fee because it shows commitment to giving clients the best possible scenario - other fee systems seemed opportunistic and less quality-driven. Having been through it, we were very relieved to have had the prep. Our results came faster than expected. Matt and team were very flexible with us regarding our needs. Matt's also a really personable guy with a great staff. Thanks so much for everything!

I was in an urgent situation and needed some visa advice really quick as i was traveling and after calling around , Shaftel Law gave me the best advice and really helped me out! They are so knowledgable /friendly and i cant thank them enough!

My wife and I found ourselves in a precarious situation that required quick and thorough handling. We were recommended Shaftel Law and we reached out to them immediately.

After our first meeting with Jessica and Matthew we felt like we had found representation that was caring and honest. They were up front with the cost and were dedicated to seeing our case through. They were clear with what we needed to provide for evidence and supporting documents. When I ran into difficulties accessing some supporting documents, Jessica was there to assist in obtaining the information.

Our case was submitted timely and with a high level of detail. We were given a decision from USCIS well before the estimated time which was a great surprise. I have no doubt that this was in part due to the great work from Jessica and Matthew. My wife and I are very grateful for the work Shaftel Law did on our case and would recommend them for any immigration issues.

A job superbly done by Shaftel Law...Matt ensured my rather nuanced case was handled flawlessly. I am extremely grateful to have used Shaftel Law, and cannot say enough good things about Matt & Team's professionalism. Apart from being excellent immigration attorneys, these are truly kind people. I highly recommend for immigration matters; I took time to shop around law firms, and could not be more satisfied. Extremely trustworthy firm - I will definitely be back for future needs. Many thanks!

Awesome customer service and very knowledgeable.

My husband and I highly recommend Shaftel Law. They were incredibly thorough, timely, and kept us informed every step of the way. We could not be happier with the ease in which they made this process happen. Thank you so much, we will certainly use you for the next phase.

Matt and his team are great. I had them file the paperwork for both an I-90 renewal, as well as an N-400. I had some special circumstances that I was worried about, and lived in several states. They were able to clarify where it made sense for me to file and declare residency which alleviated a lot of my worries. I was successful in getting citizenship, even though I spent time in Alabama, where I did my biometrics, and ultimately had my interview and oath ceremony in Brooklyn, NYC.

Overall a painless experience.

Matt and his team at Shaftel Law really made our proccess easy and fast.
Within 6 months our proccess was approved. His explained the proccess very well which made it really easy to collect all the proper documantation. My husband and I highly recommend Shaftel Law. From the moment we walk into Matts office I knew we were going to hire his service. A laywer that really takes his job serious and helps others is really hard to find. I will always be thankful for Matt, Jessica and all the staff at Shaftel Law.

A wonderful lawyer, he agreed to help us in a very short time before the interview. Helped competently to collect the necessary documents, rescued in a not easy time for us. Very good person and professional of his business. We will recommend him to everyone who lives in Colorado!

I highly recommend Shaftel Law. Matt came in half way through our immigration process as we decided to part with our first lawyer. Matt got himself up to speed quickly and was extremely reassuring during the whole process while providing us with the possible outcomes. Matt prepared us for our immigration interview and ensured we had everything we needed to ensure a speedy decision. From the first meeting with Matt we could tell he cared about what he did and that he wanted to help us get our case finalized. We will absolutely use Matt again should we ever need legal assistance again. Thank you!

Shafted Law, is a knowledge US immigration of the highest integrity in his profession . They communicate with their clients on a personalized basis, provided realistic feedback. I would have no hesitation in recommend Matt

(Translated by Google) Matthew is an excellent lawyer, he helped my husband and me to obtain my husband's residence and we are very grateful to him. It is good to have someone you trust as he is and also be bilingual so that the process is better.

(Original)
Matthew es un excelente abogado, nos ayudó a mi esposo y a mi a obtener la residencia de mi esposo y estamos muy agradecidos con él. Es bueno tener a alguien de confianza como es él y que además sea bilingüe para que el proceso sea mejor.

Shaftel Law has unparalleled expertise on the legal side, but what separates their team is their ability to see each case as a combination of human and legal interests that must intersect for the best overall outcome. They may be legal experts, but their sensitivity to business and personal concerns is the reason we now use them for 100% of our immigration work.

For the last 3 years and counting, we've relied on SHAFTEL LAW for all of our employment immigration needs. As a fast growth technology start-up, we require quick and rapid responses to ensure that we can hire the best and brightest. Not only does SHAFTEL LAW help us quickly transfer new employees on nonimmigrant visas, but they also provide our employees with piece of mind by expertly navigating the green card process. SHAFTEL LAW has the expertise of large national firms, but still provides these service at a very reasonable price point.

Matthew is a very knowledgeable and thoughtful attorney.

I came to the United States, entered "legally" with a passport when I was six years old, and just this year I was able to obtain my permanent residence, I am now 33years old! Have had lawyer after lawyer, and it seemed as if I was wasting my hard-earned dollars with them! After over Ten Grand from one lawyer, almost another five thousand $ with another. I began to look for different options. I have a clean record so I thought, "how hard could it be to do it on my own?" ...to my surprise it was very hard!
I was fortunate enough to have found Matt, by just doing my research. I chose Matt because he was very friendly over the phone, very helpful right off the bat. I could not be more happy to have chosen Matt to represent me. My case wasn't so difficult, so I didn't understand why other lawyers could not help me.With less than one year Matt helped me receive a work permit then my green card :) Something that my parents and I had worked so hard to get for many many years.
Matt is a very knowledgeable lawyer, very humble individual. He takes the time to fully explain every situation and scenario, to help his clients understand each and every process.He did not come off as being just about the money, he does what he does because he loves to help individuals, and is about doing the right" thing.
My family and I are very grateful for all of Matt's help. With Trump being in office now, we were terrified of being separated. Me having to go to a country I've hardly lived in, and worse being away from my kids. Now we can continue our lives more at ease.
i would recommend Matt to anyone going through any immigration issues. He is by far one of the best immigration lawyers I have came across! ( & there have been plenty) ;)
Thank you Matt :)

The experienced immigration team at SHAFTEL LAW helped me obtain an approved I-140 in the EB-1 (person of extraordinary ability) category. From the start of my case, his team carefully evaluated my credentials to determine if I was a good EB-1 Extraordinary Ability candidate. They were able to identify some areas of my case that I could improve upon, namely, finishing some additional journal reviews and finishing an additional scholarly publication. Once they determined that my case was ready to be filed, we filed with premium processing and my case was approved in less than a week. SHAFTEL LAW is always available to answer your questions and they are truly experts in the EB-1 categories.
