Sobel David L

"I gave him money for doing immigration paper for my husband and I waited around a year and husband turn is due and he did nothing and ha has bad employees such as his secretary she was very rude with me and finally I did my husband paper by my self And he took 4000 $ for nothing and I took over all paperwork only one who helped the immigrantion department those they are very good employees I want to share my story that for you not to be like me I am sorry to find people like those in USA"

"Well, I started workin with Mr. David Sobel since Oct-Nov 2019 on my Adjustment of Status since I married an American Citizen, and so far all I can say are positive things from him and his team; starting from the receptionist (Nancy) to his paralegal (Irene Bustos). First they made me feel safe and that they were going to have everything under control which so far they have. My process with USCIS is going really great, moving at a good pace thank God, some other cases don't go as fast as mine (if you do some research, it is never your attoney's fault to go slow, that is something no one can predict, but Mr. Sobel and Associates have been working as far as they can). Price with Mr. Sobel was fair. Before him I made some more research and previous attoneys were around the same fee for what my process is about, plus he's given me the chance to work on my payments due to the COVID-19 situation we are all experiencing at this current moment. Very satiafied with him and his team. David Cibrian"

"Paid and want more money to go farther did not recover a dime for me. Brag to me about his good review, Here a bad review to help keep you honest. When there man contact he refuse to call the other side back but want to bloom the case to court for he get my money."

"David Sobel is by far the worst lawyer I've ever dealt with. His assistant has nothing to do with the situation. I contacted Sobel because my wife and our stepchildren had been summoned to a second interview with USCIS. I did 98% of the case on my own, not too hard. If sobel was as smart as he think he his, let me emphasize. (He makes you feel like dirt and like you know nothing about what your talking about.) He would have realized that I only needed him as a puppet for the second interview. USCIS respects more a case when there's a lawyer involved, connect the dots. Early January of 2018 sobel suggest we reschedule the interview date because he wanted O.U. to go the championship. Yes, your reading it right. He insisted and insisted and shielded himself by blaming me how he wasn't ready for the case. So i gave him his way and rescheduled before though he needed $1,500 to go to the interview with me, NOW! I gave him the money. Gathered more documents like he asked to, O.K. i understand that. February no notice, March no notice, April no notice, May finally something in the mail. We received a notice in the mail to appear at the office with additional documentation the 9th of May, 2018. Had everything done in a matter of days.. on our way to the interview and get a strange call from his office saying the interview was cancelled. I was never able to do additional investigation on that, near impossible. Days later USCIS sends us REFS for documentation, so i make the dumb move and give it to him, thinking he was an actual lawyer. We later ask the office, "has the documentation been sent" their reply, "i didn't know anything about it." We asked for the documentation and a week later my wife and kids receive their green cards. While sobel sits $1,500 richer and did nothing. Absolutely nothing. So i asked could i get half of it back? No response. He sits behind his wooden desk hiding from customers, never helping a customer, yes its a business not a service. To my fellow immigrants, do your research, read reviews, and ask around."

"I hired David Sobel's office for my DACA renewal off of a referral to for Cathrine Coulter, who i later found out was his assistant so he would be handling my case. My first impression of Mr. Sobel is that maybe he had the right intentions to help me with my case. he went over a lot of "usual" information with me as lawyers do to present a sense of knowledge in his work and we agreed to have him represent me for an agreed upon price. He called me into his office the next day to go over some information with me and to have me pay the retention fee and thats when the first issue i had with him occured. He tried to raise the price up stating that he didn't remember he quoted me a price the day before. The difference was a whopping 500$ extra that he tried to attain from me knowing that i was distressed with this issue. I should have walked out but i was on a time crunch and he knew it. I refused and told him we had a gentleman's agreement yesterday for a price and that I do not like scare tactics. Either he take my case for the agreed price or not at all. Knowing that i would not be scared into paying more he took the case and stated that he will have his assistant do some of the work to make up the cost difference, i told him it matters not who does it but the result and as long as he does his job im ok with it. I got a notice in the mail a little later on and realized it was from USCIS asking for more documentation from me. When i called Mr. Sobel to inquire on it he mentioned that he got the same letter and that he will need an extra 750$ for his troubles to get those documents. I asked him if getting those few documents requested was included in taking the case in the first place and he quickly reminded me that I had "gotten a deal earlier and he retains the right to request more cash for more work"( his own words), I told him i thought i was getting ripped off and he then stated that he will let USCIS know that he will know longer be my attorney if i do not pay him the 750$ he requested. I told him no because I rather pay another person more than to continue to use someone like him, He is only interested in your cash so if you want to throw it away then use David Sobel, other wise i recommend that no one use his services, specially if he knows you are desperate. On final note, i managed to get those documents myself for a total cost of 16.85$ total, which includes shipping it to me. Oh and this is not in reflection to Cathrine Coulter (the assistant) because she was helpful and i felt she actually cared. I hope she finds a better place to work because i will never use him again. Oh and if i could give a negative star i would rate David Sobel -5 stars"
