Уважаемые Елена, Катерина и все работники вашего офиса, хотим от всего сердца поблагодарить вас за помощь в оформлении грин-карты. Уже на первой консультации, мы приняли решение, что работать будем только с Еленой и её командой, так как она грамотно и четко ответила на все наши вопросы, построила план наших совместных действий, а самое главное с оптимизмом, присущем ей, уверила нас в успешном достижении результата. Наш путь не был простым, но несмотря на неожиданные вызовы и сложности дела, а также многократные изменения в миграционном законодательстве вы проявили стойкость и профессионализм, вы терпеливо умели нас успокоить и реагировать на возникшие кризисы и помогли нам преодолеть все препятствия. Мы очень ценим, что в самые стрессовые моменты вы, уважаемые Елена и Катерина, оставались на связи, предоставляли моральную поддержку и довели наше дело до победного конца. Спасибо за вашу работу, которая изменила нашу жизнь к лучшему, за ваши неравнодушные и добрые сердца. Желаем вам успехов в вашей важной работе. Всем рекомендуем этих замечательных специалистов.

I would like to express my sincere gratitude to attorney Elena and her assistant Katerina for their excellent work throughout my Green Card process. They were always friendly, attentive, and quick to respond to any questions I had. Many times during the process, I realized how glad I was that I chose not to handle everything on my own and instead trusted professionals. Of course, anyone applying for a Green Card should be prepared for the fact that the process requires a lot of effort on your side as well — gathering documents and providing information is something no one can do for you. But when it comes to everything else, you can truly feel at ease because Elena’s team handles their part of the work exceptionally well. I really appreciate their professionalism, support, and attention to detail. I will definitely recommend Elena to my friends and acquaintances. Wishing them many more successful and approved cases!

Top-notch immigration attorney with well organized client-oriented business. I started with consultation on one hypothesis that after the thorough study of my case by Olena was taken down and replaced with the alternate strategy that other attorneys would not consider successful. Olena and her team executed the case further to approval. The team is awesome. The highest level of proficiency combined with excellent customer service, regular communication, clear instructions, alignment to committed timeline - not a typical combination for immigration law firms. Certainly recommend!

Questions About Divorce?

An uncontested divorce means that both spouses agree on all major terms of the divorce. This may include the grounds for divorce, property division, child custody, child support, and spousal support, if applicable. When there are no disputes to resolve, the process is generally more efficient and does not require court appearances.
The timeline depends on several factors, including how quickly documents are completed, signed, and accepted by the court. In uncontested cases, divorces can often be finalized within a few months, though court processing times may vary. Contested cases typically take longer due to negotiations or court involvement.
Yes. When retirement accounts are part of the marital assets, we assist with properly addressing their division as part of the divorce agreement. In certain cases, additional documents, such as Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs), may be required. We will explain what applies to your situation and guide you through the process.
In many cases, existing Family Court orders related to custody, visitation, or support can be incorporated into a divorce judgment. We review the existing order and determine whether it can be included as-is or whether modifications may be necessary.
Documents are typically shared electronically for review. You will be guided through the signing process and given clear instructions for completing any required signatures or notarization in accordance with New York court requirements.
Yes. All divorce documents are prepared and filed by a licensed attorney. We handle the court filing process on your behalf and monitor the case through final judgment.
