Kerosky Purves & Bogue

Total waste of time and money. When my husband and I arrived for our appointment, we were informed that Mr Kerosky was ‘running late’. It turned out that he wanted coffee so he popped out to starbucks, leaving us waiting for 10/​15min, which he did not make up at the end of our scheduled time slot. His lack of apology wasnt appreciated either!
During our meeting, we were asking information on several visas and ways to work out our situation. throughout the appointment he provided little information and wasnt very resourceful in regards to coming up with solutions– in fact when i suggested options he agreed that these were useful pathways and good suggestions– like COME ON! im supposed to be paying you for your knowledge not vice versa.
His lack of enthusiam and interest meant that our session was rendered useless within 30 minutes, and we still had to pay for the full hour (with no mention of his unexpected coffee break during our session!)
would NOT recommend

My adventure with Kerosky & Associates started in April 2008. We were done on March 31^st 2009.
My husband and I went to Christopher for a relatively simple case of family based green card.
As soon as we met him he made a very good impression: friendly, nice and not that «lawyerish».I’m saying this as a compliment: i don’t like lawyers, i don’t think that anybody that is not a lawyer actually likes lawyers, but i have to admit that Christopher and his staff are very likable, friendly and more important in their job, knowledgeable.
I think the best thing about Kerosky & Associates are his assistants: Ewa was great and both my husband and I think that Pawel is pretty much the best thing that happened to us since our immigration adventure started: he was great, responsive and honest, he was telling us what he could do for us and what he couldn’t without false promises and i can’t repeat enough that he was actually responsive, which, let’s be honest here, is not one of Christopher best qualities.
Why four stars instead of five?
1) sometimes you would write to Christopher and no answer for like a week, but i would turn to Pawel and in a couple of hours i would have my piece of advice.
2)i had a tiny problem after my adjustment of status, not at all Christopher’s fault, just crazy bureaucracy. I needed and additional paperwork to get my passport stamped and leave the country. I turned to Christopher for help, it was a Wednesday and he told me to let him know if i wouldn’t have received this piece of paper by Monday, because he could help. Well… I call him on Monday and he told me that he can’t actually do anything and we have just to wait. Which it would have been totally fine if he didn’t tell me that he could help us in the first place.Bummer.
Overall good/​great experience. The prices are reasonable, at least in our case. ($ 2,500 for a green card based on marriage green card.2 rates $ 1250 each) The office is super central, on Market in the City, cool place, cool people, I will use Christopher’s team again. Plus I discovered that there is a magazine called Super Lawyers, priceless.

Christopher Kerosky came into our lives about two years ago… He has helped my husband and I tremendously!!! We were near giving up hope about our situation with immigration and Christopher did the unthinkable, my husband was in a deportation process because of a student visa situation when this all started and we did not think that this was going to work out for us and With Chris’s help now my husband is about to get his green card.
When I think of Lawyers I usually think of them as scammers or folks who are just after your money. Christopher is/​was far from that he is truly genuine and helped us through this painful and uncertain time in our life… He was persistent and instead of us worrying about our case he/​Yelena did all the work they emailed and called us to update us on any new information and took care of all of the paper work.
I have Christopher and his awesome staff (Yalena) to thank for giving my husband a chance to have an opportunity in this country and to save my marriage and stay with my true love. Thank you Thank you Thank you sooooo much Christopher, you’re awesome!!!
Thank you Christopher for all you have done… God Bless you.
