Nelson Smith LLP

"Nicholas Costa is a great lawyer. Eight years ago he fought and won me my green card and as life's luck would have it I have every faith in trusting in his services again. He is such an altruistic person and has a good sense of judgement/ knowledgeable licenced in both Hawai'i and Oregon"

"Just want to take this opportunity to thank John, Johanna and the entire NELSON SMITH team. They worked hard for me and my family. In just little over a year, John and Johanna have worked on my case to adjust my permanent status and how pleased I am with the outcome. I am truly thankful for their support and help through every step of the way. There's no words that can explain how much I truly appreciate you guys! I would highly recommend them to anyone!!!!"

"My son and I hired John Dooney to help us with a 90 day fiance visa. We met at the law offices in Portland. In the first meeting, John clearly explained the process from start to finish and he carefully set our expectations. We went home and set to work on preparing our paperwork and completing our assigned tasks. We did everything that John advised us to do. My future daughter in law arrived in the US Feb.2020. Fast forward.... She now has her green card! We never had anxiety nor unwanted surprises. My daughter in law said that when she met with the embassy Official in her country, she moved through the process smoothly because John and Johanna Rojas, John's paralegal guided her so well on what was needed. She watched other applicants being rejected because clearly their advisors did not provide the same level of expertise and professionalism. We will be forever grateful to John and Johanna for making it possible to bring the most wonderful human being into our family. Truly a gift. Thank you so much John and Johanna. You too were a gift to our family."

"I love my experience with Mr. Costa! He did my case during almost 5 years, Him and his entire team are amazing, and they always were there for every stepand help me with every single thing in my process. Even though it was a really long and complicated process they made everything easy. Today I got my green card, and I am extremely happy and Grateful for such a great experience with them. The whole team work is really caring and passionate with their job. 100% recommended"

"My husband was in the US on an expired visa. We went to Nelson Smith for help in making him legal. We dealt with John Dooney and his assistant Meghan. John was most helpful in explaining the process to us along with a timeline. Total time from start to finish with Green Card in hand, a little less then 11 months. I highly recommend John and his firm."
