Gehi and Associates handled my case and they handled everything so exceptionally. They were able to take care of any and every question I had and put my worries at ease from the moment I walked into their office. I’ve never gone through any legal case before and they took care of all of the paperwork and legalities. I’ve been recommending their office to all of my friends and colleagues for any legal needs. They remained in communication with me at all times. Even when I had a question after office hours, they made themselves available to me. With their help, the outcome of the case was in my favor and I can’t thank them enough. Highly recommend

Gehi & Associates is an excellent and successful immigration attorney firm. Gehi is very knowledgeable, thorough, a great communicator, and truly represents best interests of his clients. Gehi is really hardworking lawyer, he always answered to my calls and emails. He would not take a case without a detailed evaluation of each and every piece of evidence. I trusted him and he brought excellent results. If Gehi takes your case, you can be confident that he’ll do everything and will win it.

I wish I could give them negative stars!!! Extremely horrible and unprofessional bunch of people. We paid them from our immigration case and for 1 month no one contacted us even for our documents!!! when we reached out to them....no one had any clue about the case. Upon requesting a refund, there was no response for months and finally they came back saying they will only give us back less than 50%. funny thing is when asked why they were deducting 5-60% the and proof of any work they did...all the office manager could tell us was 1 paralegal made 1 phone call to find out what the procedure was with NVC (I dont belive they did that either). so 1 paralegal phone call cost me about $1800. I thought you pay lawyers because you think they know the procedures of law!!! I am filing a complain with BBB, NY BAR and consumer protection court.

These people are disgusting. Before they do any work they harass their clients with phone calls to pay up, even if a deposit has already been made. The staff is very uncivil, disrespectful, and openly gossip about people, clearly not experts at customer service. They talk over you and in a condescending manner. They're disorganized, bureaucratic, and their service is subpar. Mr. Gehi, himself, is very unprofessional and not very courteous; he appears to have a temper problem. It's a family practice, they get sentimental about criticism...and really, what can you expect from brown people? Most of the work that I paid for, I had to do myself, so you're literally paying just to use their licenses. Otherwise, they're completely incompetent and useless. Don't trust these people. They'll work on an impossible case just to make money.
