Reviewers credit this Passaic firm with stopping foreclosures through loan modifications that lowered rates and payments, and with navigating short sales to minimize credit damage. Staff answered calls promptly, explained options clearly, and walked clients through each decision without pressure.

Reviewers consistently praise quick wins in immigration work, especially habeas corpus petitions and ICE removals. Staff member Yamilky is named repeatedly as trustworthy and helpful. One month-old complaint details phone staff (Miranda and Leslie) as unprofessional, dismissive, and hard to reach, with contradictory information about case details. The firm claims over 15 years in practice and lists bankruptcy alongside immigration services. Most reviews focus on immigration outcomes rather than foreclosure or bankruptcy work. The vast majority of reviews are five-star, though phone access and front-desk communication stand out as a real friction point for at least one recent customer.

Most clients report smooth, fast closings with lawyers who answer questions fully and keep deadlines. Frank Martone, Dennis Uhlmann, and staff member Jahaira stand out for responsiveness and clear explanations. One landlord-tenant case involved poor communication and an attorney not appearing in court as expected.
