Рекомендация: перед тем как обращаться к адвокату всегда прочитайте все негативные отзывы (если бы я их видел ранее - никогда бы не нанимал адвоката Романенко)

Я прошла весь путь эмиграции — от самого начала, получения грин-карты и до присяги на гражданство США. И всё это время рядом был мой адвокат Андрей Романенко и его прекрасная команда Ирина и Дарья. Это настоящие профессионалы, которые помогают людям на каждом этапе: объясняют, поддерживают, решают все вопросы и доводят до результата. Благодаря им я сегодня гордо могу сказать: я — гражданин США! 🇺🇸 Искренне благодарю своего адвоката за помощь в получении грин-карты и гражданства. Спасибо за терпение, заботу и знания! С таким адвокатом любой путь становится легче.Если вы ищете надёжного адвоката, который реально помогает, — рекомендую именно Андрея Романенко.

I didn’t know any lawyers personally. I found Andrei through Yelp reviews, and I’m really glad I did.
Thanks to his guidance and professionalism, I won my immigration case.
What I appreciated the most was how professionally and carefully he handled every part of the process.
In addition to my main case, I also asked for help with other documents and everything was always done on the highest level. Clear, efficient, and right on time.
Andrei was always calm, supportive, and clear in communication.
And I also want to say a big thank you to his amazing team the assistants and everyone working with him.
The ladies who helped with documents and communication were incredibly kind and attentive.
Thank you so, so much to Andrei and everyone at the office. You made a very stressful time feel manageable, and I’m deeply grateful.
If you’re looking for real support with your immigration case this is the team you can trust.

Would not recommend
---
Edit: Google doesn't allow to respond to a comment. So I'll edit my review to respond. And attach a pic of the response from owner
In the response to my comment, the first things you will notice are:
1. Owner is not asking why the experience was not good
2. Instead, he is trying to discredit the review
Hopefully, that will help you decide if this is the attorney you want to work with

We only have positive things to say about Attorney Andrei Romanenko and his team!
- Clear about: costs, process, and possible outcomes/decisions.
- Answers promptly to all questions and concerns. Responds in a casual manner, which makes it less intimidating to ask questions and helps clients have a good understanding of the answers.
- Follow up with you if it is needed and if there are any updates.
- Affordable consultation and attentive when you are speaking. Asks proper questions to have a clear understanding of your case.
- Very helpful in filling out the necessary forms, and they make sure that everything is correct before submitting them.
- Do a very great job of keeping all your documents organized and safe.
Choosing an Immigration Attorney is frightening because you are explaining something so private and putting yourself in a vulnerable position. Especially because the outcome of the end of the process could be great or disappointing. It can also result in losing lots of money. Andrei Romanenko and his team are exceptional at what they do! They attentively listen to understand your case and tell you from the beginning what it will take and what could happen. They are also very straightforward about the costs. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for an immigration attorney!

Andrei and his Associates helped me with the E-2 visa process and did a great job. He was clear and efficient,. The forms and requirements are intimidating, but he made it easy. Due to his help, my visa went through smoothly. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is doing the same.

Всем доброго времени суток. По приезду в США через Мексику, считал самым важным это документы. Как только нашел жилье и какую-то работу приступил к поиску адвоката.
Спрашивал знакомых, знакомых знакомых, на просторах интернета( там нашел Андрея Романенко и его статью о том как нужно выбирать адвоката), в телеграмм чатах. Отобрал для себя 5 адвокатов и назначил с ними платные консультации ( каждая стоила от $150 до $200) заранее подготовил список вопросов. Самый четкий разговор и точные инструкции без каких-либо (все будет отлично, это мелочи) были от Андрея. Я еще почитал отзывы и решил остановится на нем.
Как только мы заключили договор, сразу получил задания по почте с инструкциями, и они отправили по всем нужным инстанциям необходимые формы и уведомления.
За все время работы мы разговаривали несколько раз перед судебным слушанием при подготовке. Вся работа велась через электронную почту и документы загружали на Гугл диск. По началу мне не нравился такой формат работы ( так как я привык разговаривать, а тем более заплатил деньги и нет возможности поговорить). Потом я подумал так: ведь все нужные формы и бумаги делаются во время, у адвоката много клиентов и если он будет с каждым разговаривать, то у него будет голова постоянно забита вопросами клиентов и их переживаниями. Этапы у клиентов разные, у кого то в это время слушания, это весьма нервное мероприятие требующее холодной головы, спокойствия и сосредоточенности. Поэтому он отвечает на все вопросы по электронной почте, в течении 2 рабочих дней.
Наше слушание было удаленным, и за 20 мин до слушания звонит Андрей со словами: суд перенесли, звонила помощница судьи и предложила две даты, одну через полтора года, а другую через 10 дней ( но по времени Андрея это было 7 утра не рабочее время), он сказал что принял 7 утра. Позже я написал Андрею что благодарю за принятое неудобное для себя время. Он ответил что для него это 2 часа сна а для нас жить еще полтора года в неизвестности. Я в очередной раз убедился в порядочности этого человека ( ведь мог просто сказать что слушание перенесли на полтора года и я бы никогда не узнал о другой дате).
Судья была с 71% отказов имея прокурорское прошлое. Прокурор был таким как можно представить прокурора. Подготовки к суду проходили на высшем тонком психологическом уровне. Одновременно загружая и не перегружая меня. Таким образом Андрей подвел меня к слушанию в нужном психологическом состоянии. В начале слушания я понял как прокурор несколько раз повторил фразу что кейс составлен идеально и у него нет вопросов по кейсу. Что в очередной раз говорит о профессионализме Андрея.
И вот судья вынесла решение, что одобряет наше убежище!!! Ура!!! Победа!!!
Хочу сказать что Андрей в суде вел себя также уверенно и профессионально.
Андрей Романенко в моих глазах является порядочным человеком и профессионалом своего дела на высшем уровне. Однозначно рекомендую. Мое мнение что это судьбоносные для человека дела, и очень важно чтобы представлял Вас человек ответственный и профессиональный.

Доброго времени суток. Вот мы и получили наши green card. Спустя 3 года 3 месяца с момента заезда на территорию США.
Второй этап после суда, с момента подачи на Грин Кард до получения занял ровно 1 год. Возникли некоторые сложности в связи с нашим отношением к некоторым моментам, но Андрей и его команда благополучно справились, не взяв дополнительную плату за новый объем работы.
Хочу поблагодарить Андрея, Ирину за проделанную качественную, добросовестную работу. Хочу отметить что фокус адвоката направлен именно на конечный результат, все документы подаются своевременно и корректно,что очень важно для людей в похожем положении. Дай Бог вам сохранить те же качества в работе на долгие годы.
Очень рад что в свое время нашел вашу компанию в интернете, читая статью Андрея: как правильно выбрать иммиграционного адвоката.

Exceptional Support for Political Asylum Cases – Andrei Romanenko and His Team
I am incredibly grateful to Andrei Romanenko and his outstanding legal team for their dedication and professionalism in handling my political asylum case. From the very beginning, Andrei showed a deep understanding of the complexities involved and provided me with clear guidance and unwavering support.
Navigating a political asylum case can be an emotionally challenging and stressful process, but Andrei and his team made me feel heard, understood, and protected. They meticulously prepared every detail of my case, ensuring that my story was presented in the strongest and most compelling way possible.
What stood out most was their genuine compassion and personal investment in my case. Andrei went above and beyond to help me feel confident and prepared for every step of the process, from gathering evidence to the final hearing.
Thanks to Andrei’s expertise, strategic approach, and dedication, I felt empowered to seek the justice and protection I needed. I would highly recommend Andrei Romanenko and his team to anyone seeking legal support, especially for political asylum. They are not only highly skilled professionals but also deeply compassionate individuals who truly care about their clients’ futures.

I would like to express my gratitude to attorney Andrey Romanenko and his wonderful team for the successful preparation and final defense of our case in the immigration court in December 2024! I would like to highlight the following aspects of the work:
1/ Quick start of the work. When choosing an attorney, we considered many factors, evaluations, and recommendations. We contacted several attorneys. Andrey Romanenko's feedback was prompt, and during the initial consultation, we discussed the case, Andrey gave an assessment, and outlined the stages of the work in detail.
2/ Availability for questions, consultations, meetings, etc. Our phone calls were always answered, and we could immediately receive responses and feedback to our inquiries. I should note that many issues are resolved not directly with Andrey, but through his assistants. I emphasize this just in case, as some people might prefer discussing everything directly with the attorney. We found the format of working with the team very convenient; we could contact them anytime with even the simplest but unclear questions. More complex issues were always resolved directly with Andrey.
3/ Clear deadlines. These were established from the outset. When and what needed to be gathered for the case, the work stages, readiness, meetings – everything was planned in advance, and everyone followed this plan without delays.
4/ The demanding nature of Andrey Romanenko in preparing the applicant for the hearing. Andrey has high standards when it comes to preparation, knowledge of the entire case material, and the format of responses in court. This is important, and in this case, Andrey checks thoroughly like a strict teacher, which is correct.
5/ The decision to expedite the case review in court. After evaluating our case, Andrey almost immediately suggested going for an expedited process, and thanks to that, our court session was held 1-2 years earlier. As I found out in conversations with my acquaintances who are waiting for their court hearings, many attorneys are unaware of such an option. Many thanks to Andrey for this – we are very happy with the result!

Many thanks to Andrei Romanenko for the work done. My case and the cases of my whole family were approved. My advice to anyone reading this review is to thoroughly vet attorneys on special resources. I came across lawyers not having a license in my state, and promoted on the Internet lawyers turned out to be crooks so even overpriced almost twice. I am very glad that I found Andrei and his team. Andrei is a little wordy and speaks only on the merits, does not intimidate, does not seek to take you more than you should. He gives clear answers and recommendations. Believe me, it is not an easy task to meet a decent and caring immigration lawyer like Andrei Romanenko.
-----------------------------
Большое спасибо Андрею Романенко за проделанную работу. Мой кейс и кейсы всей моей семьи были одобрены. Мой совет всем, кто читает этот отзыв, - тщательно проверяйте адвокатов на специальных ресурсах. Я сталкивался с адвокатами, не имеющими лицензии в моем штате, а раскрученные в интернете адвокаты оказывались мошенниками, так еще и завышали цены почти в два раза. Я очень рад, что нашел Андрея и его команду. Андрей немногословен и говорит только по существу, не запугивает, не стремится взять с вас больше, чем нужно. Он дает четкие ответы и рекомендации. Поверьте, встретить такого порядочного и небезразличного иммиграционного адвоката, как Андрей Романенко, - задача не из легких.
