  • Bob Gottfried is the best immigration lawyer in the business period.  He is kind, compassionate and very very efficient (not qualities normally associated with lawyers). I felt totally safe in his hands and my green card application was seamless and fun.

  • I write you this letter with the greatest of gratitude and appreciation for your legal representation in assisting me in obtaining my permanent residency. As you recall, I have lived in the United States for more than twenty years without proper documentation. Throughout those years I was a productive member of the American society; however I was unable to fulfill my greatest potential in the land of opportunity. Prior to retaining your services, others whom I trusted consistently failed me.
    Your legal expertise and your determination to uphold the American justice system was truly exemplary and has impacted my life in ways that words can never describe. As a result of your representation , my wife and children now live in peace and tranquility that they know I will not be deported from the one and only place I call home. I am grateful that I was able to fulfill my obligation to perform my pilgrimage to the holy city of Mecca, gathering with my brothers and sisters from over twenty five countries around the globe. Once again, I thank you and will always remember you as a fighter for justice and for your zealous representation. My family and I forever thankful.

  • Having been a client of Robert Gottfried has been a great experience from start to the very successful finish. He helped me to obtain a Green Card for myself and my wife based on an extraordinary abilities petition . . . I will never forget the moment he called me that my petition was approved . . . I can only thank Bob for his dedication and his high professional standards. When I recently reentered the US for the first time with my card stating “Permanent Resident” I was thinking of Bob. He helped me to open a new door in my life.

  • Mr. Gottfried’s understanding of the law coupled with his experience and his trusted name has helped one of my employee attain work permit here in the US. Several lawyers gave up or didn’t even want to take the case and Mr. Gottfried saw what the other lawyers had done wrong and helped us properly pursue his case. He has also helped several of my other employees to attain work visas when the lawyers that my employees went to said they couldn’t be helped. Mr. Gottfried has been invaluable to my company and helped me keep workers that have brought my company to where it is today.
