“Provided professional advice”
My wife and I received our green cards last week, and I want to thank Robert's team again. First, they always replied to our emails whenever we had questions, which was very important to me. Second, Robert provided professional advice that helped us make the right decisions. My wife's case was complicated, we feel lucky and blessed to have chosen the right help. Wish everyone luck!- Eric B. -
“Best immigration Lawyer”
Robert is very knowledgeable, kind & approachable as well as his staff. From Sylvia to Daniel, they’re always very nice in answering all my concerns. I had no trouble with my USCIS interview because their team made sure that me & my husband were prepared. Robert was highly recommended to me by a Lawyer i know. I’m glad i took her advice and went to seek Roberts assistance regarding my marriage based green card. Got my approval the same day after the interview. I will be getting his assistance with all my immigration concerns including my childrens petition. I highly recommend Robert! He’s the best! 😊👍🏻- Jen -
“The Best Lawyer”
I would like to take this opportunity to thank Atty. Robert Milla, Ms. Sylvia and the rest of the staff of Milla Law firm. The team was of great help in processing my papers and documents, from the application of my Green Card until the application of my U.S. Citizenship. Not to mention how patient Mr. Robert Milla was when answering my questions and paying attention into knotting all the loose ends to make sure that everything goes well for me to achieve the outcome I was aiming for. I would definitely recommend Robert Milla Law Firm not only for his compassion and empathetic demeanor in relating to his clients but also because of his undeniable skills in handling cases in immigration. His assistants are also commendable for being so helpful and attentive. Until now I'm still overwhelmed that I immediately got the schedule of my Oath Taking Ceremony few days after my interview for the application of my U.S. Citizenship. I have no regrets in seeking legal help and advice from this office, and I will definitely hire their service for the petition of my family.- A.G. -
“Personal immigration lawyer”
Justin is my goto immigration lawyer. I came here as a student and Justin handled my H1B case couple of years ago. Although Trump administration was pushing back on many of the cases with RFEs, Justin gave a strongly worded response back and got me, my H1B. Last year, fortunately I met my now wife and after we got married, Justin handled our green card processing with ease and seamlessly. He has many contacts in the Immigration office, which made even more easier and hospitable for my interview. He was available throughout the interview and even helped on a couple difficult questions in between the interview. Throughout the processing, I found Justin highly organized and great understanding of the domain. He is very current with the news and changes to immigration laws and if he doesn't have answer then, you can expect an email to follow up with answers. I highly recommend Justin as a personal immigration lawyer.- Zak -
