Immigration

Having John Colbert at my side for every step of the immigration process gave me the assurance that no other attorney was able to offer. I won’t trust any other attorney to stand in my corner for whatever situation life presents.

Antonio P.Client - John D. Colbert & Associates

My family sought out John Colbert’s legal representation on behalf of my brother who was facing immediate deportation after another law firm had failed to file his asylum application in a timely manner. Mr. Colbert took on the case and within a short period was able to convince the immigration court to accept a newly submitted application, vacate the deportation order and reopen the case. Within a year, Mr. Colbert had tried the case and won my brother asylum in the United States allowing him to get a Green Card. Throughout the entire process, John personally met with us regularly and explained in simple wording the course of the entire process. He is super-efficient, responsible and takes his job very seriously.
