Review: I paid $950 dollars to [redacted] over two years ago to help me file for my wife's visa to be approved and to bring her here to the U.S.. All documents are completed (if completed) with incorrect information and keep getting sent back from the N.V.C., Everytime I call the N.V.C they tell me that there are no actions being taken and that none of the information that was asked for has been reported or turned in at all...... Each days goes by as my wife and I spend time apart from each other and in doing so we are unhappy and not able to live are lives together or start a family. I dont know why [redacted] or his partner [redacted] are not doing there jobs and why they keep getting all information wrong on the papers submitted to the N.V.C.... No call are returned to me [redacted]. I have made several attempts to call text and email him and there are no reposes and nothing is being done about my immigration needs for my wife. I have been left in the dark and time is going by that no one can give me back. I would like to know what I can do to fire him and also get my money back that he charged me or what other legal rights or actions I can take against Smart Paralegal. Please advise me on what I should do.Desired Settlement: All money charged by [redacted] and compensation for time wasted.

Review: Highly upset after I requested my file from my attorney's office and found that my initial assumption were correct. I fired my attorney after I was charged $300 for coming into drop off my credit report and payed $300. That same day the secretary was having a hard time with her machine and charged me for a hour of her time. Her faulty machine cost me $300. Then I go to pick up my file and the credit report was never given to the other attorney. A month later I fired my attorney and several letters were being mailed to him without any documentation to the other party or myself. Now another motion is getting ready to be filed against me. I find documentation. Between the secretary and the attorney but no action filed. My retirement accounts are at stake.Desired Settlement: I don't want to owe them anything. I always pay all my bills and the lack of organization on there part is unacceptable. There was even other files in my account. Huge confidential breach.
