My experience with Dr. Nicola was very positive. She was very patient and kind with me, so I had time to clarify my doubts about my immigration issue.

Nicola helped with filling out my second half of the process as I already had submitted the I-130 form myself. During the process, if I hadn’t reached out to her myself I would have barely ever heard back. My process took about 2 years and within those almost 2 years all my answers were answered in a very dry manner. I asked her to find out why it was taking so long and all she would tell me is that it’s within processing times. I had called USCIS myself and followed up with my case because she wasn’t giving me the answers I was asking for, or just brushing me off. When we first started everything with her I was told $400 in the beginning and $400 for when I would prepare for the interview. I did not have an interview. I received my green card in the mail and because I got a new phone I lost all information. She texts me today asking for the additional 400 and since I guess I miss understood the agreement. I told her I thought the additional 400 was for preparing me for the interview but I didn’t get an interview. She responded back to me being extremely rude and demanding the payment saying I am going to come up with a whole bunch of excuses. First of all no excuses were given and I said payment is not an issue. I asked a simple question and repeatedly asked for the signed payment agreement or any payment agreement made to be sent to my email, and instead of doing that she tells me to look for it myself. I received the so called signed agreement that I never seen, sent to be 45 minutes after my last message with her. In that agreement my name is typed in as my now legal name when at the time my name was different. I never signed that agreement. I paid the invoice because I don’t want to deal with her messaging me non stop and being rude. But I am leaving this review here for you guys to be aware. Keep in mind IF YOU WANT TO WORK WITH SOMEONE, PLEASE MAKE SURE THEY ARE PROFESSIONAL, POLITE AND RESPECTFUL . ALSO, MAKE SURE THEY WONT ACCUSE YOU OF TRYING TO STEAL FROM THEM. If I could leave no stars I would.

Amanda, I'm glad your green card was approved. However, you are a very dishonest individual. I've been working with you for over two years on your Adjustment of Status application. Every correspondence you received from USCIS, you reached out to me the very minute you received it. However, I do find it ironic that you received notice from USCIS over a month ago regarding your green card being approved, and you said nothing to me. Why is that? Very simple, you knew that the second half of the payment for my services was due once you either received your green card interview date or the green card was approved. Whichever occured first!!!! The mere fact that I had to go on USCIS' website to find out your green card was approved speaks volumes about your intent. You wanted something for nothing. Very dishonest!!! YOU signed a payment agreement, and you knew what your responsibilities were. You were just trying to pull a fast one. Of course, your Adjustment of Staus application took almost two years. You did not file concurrently with the I130, USCIS was dealing with the COVID-19 backlog, and your case got transferred to a new office for processing. This was explained to you. I'm not sure how that is my fault!!!!! There is nothing I hate more than dishonest people. If you couldn't afford to pay the fee, you could have simply asked for an extension.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I work 100% remotely and I don't have a clerk so my overhead is relatively low. From these savings I am able to pass on deep discounts to my clients. My prices are about a half sometimes a third of what an attorney would charge.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I typically ask probing questions when I meet a new client so that I can totally understand what they need done. Depending on the client I set up a video chat so they can see who they are working with and feel more comfortable. Once I'm hired I send over an intake form to gather data to fill out the immigration documents. I normally give the client an idea of when I expect to be finished. If I'm running behind schedule I also keep them updated.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have significant training in preparing family based immigration forms. I have done countless amounts without pay. I feel like this is something I can do in my sleep now. I prepare all these forms myself, I don't have a clerk as an attorney does that assist them. This hands on experience has equipped me with a wealth of knowledge that allows me to assist people.
