About Paul Choquette

I am intimately familiar with the immigration process from both the client and attorney perspective. I was born and raised in Montreal, Canada and attended college and law school in the United States pursuant to a student visa. As a young immigration attorney, I married an American citizen processing my own applications for conditional and permanent residence. Subsequently, I became a naturalized United States citizen. Since 1992, I have assisted thousands of individuals and companies successfully navigate a complex and rather daunting immigration system. Never forgetting my experience as an immigrant, my primary focus is providing each client with a clear understanding of the immigration steps that lie ahead as well as a realistic assessment of the results that can be achieved. Each client expects and is entitled to an honest evaluation.

Paul was amazing! He is so knowledgeable, responsive and made the whole immigration process so easy for us. He always made sure that we were overprepared & helped us be ready for the worst, which made the process and interview so much easier for us. When we were first going through all of the paperwork, I would have a question almost every day and he was always quick to respond. Will definitely recommend him!

Paul will take up your case ONLY if he's confident that it can be WON! My family has entrusted Paul with all of our Immigration issues for over 20 years and will continue to do so. We have been treated with respect during every case. Paul makes the process so smooth by keeping the lines of communication open, being responsive, and explaining everything along the way. Paul is thorough, he takes no shortcuts and asks for a lot of supporting documents. Following Paul's instructions and directions means WINNING!! My family and I highly recommend Paul as the only Immigration Lawyer in Seattle to go to.

My experience working with Paul Choquette had been excellent. When my wife and I first began our immigration process it was intimidating and stressful going through all the paperwork and entire process on our own having no prior knowledge. We had no idea where we should even start. When Paul took our case, we sent him our information and he took care of everything. All the paperwork, making sure everything was submitted correctly, and also any hiccups along the way. This not only relieved us of the stress but also made the process quick and smooth. When it was time for the interview, he made sure we were overprepared, and reassured us when we were anxious or stressed about anything. Even after the interview he is continuing to help us with the final steps of the process. I would highly recommend Paul Choquette to anyone starting the immigration process.

My husband and I started the process just before covid lock down. Paul and the team were STELLAR with the multitudes of policy changes, form updates, covid setbacks, and all the lagging that ensued. Overall, almsot 2.5 years later we finally were given our interview. Couldn't be happier! Would 1000% recommend him! He is straight talking, honest and very good! We will be working with his team once again when it comes time for us to start the citizenship process!

Paul is very good at what he does. He is very responsive. He knows the process by heart and was able to guide us through the process, answering any questions we had. Great sense of humor as well! We had a very smooth application process thanks to him!! Highly recommend him!

6/5 stars for the best immigration attorney in Washington! I’m American looking to sponsor my wife (born in South Korea). We had a lot of concerns such as her working without authorization, being in America for over 10 years, and overstaying her visa, but Paul addressed these concerns in much detail and reassured us throughout the entire process. We worked with Paul for over 2 years and he was able to get my wife a ten year permanent residency! Paul is a very well spoken attorney and gave us a lot of confidence throughout this entire process. We consulted with a couple other immigration attorneys before meeting Paul but no other attorney seemed to know what they’re doing. Go with Paul, the best of the best, you won’t regret it!!

My spouse was overseas when we started the green card process, so I was very grateful to be able to find a professional and reliable lawyer like Paul. In our first call, he was not only knowledgable but also very funny, which made me immediately feel comfortable to trust him with my stressful process. 
Throughout the process, he was very organized. Paul paid attention to every small details that could help our case. His email replies were always fast and straight to the point. And the best thing was I could pick up my phone and call him anytime with questions, and he would be there for me. When I spouse came back after a year and we all had a call conference, my spouse told me “You picked such a cool lawyer”, and that put a smile on my face :) 
If you are any reluctant (after reading all of the 5-star reviews), just pick up the phone and call him for your first consultation. I’m sure that you will immediately want to work with him, like I did!

I recommend Paul Choquette to every one of my friends and acquaintances that are in need of an immigration lawyer. My husband and I reached out to Paul for a consultation when we were engaged, and thank goodness we did. Paul worked with our timeline, expedited paperwork, coached us, encouraged us and answered every single one of our thousands of questions. We received my husband's green card with months to spare before our wedding (even the immigration officer at our appointment was shocked at how fast in processed). Paul took what should have been an incredibly stressful time in our life and made it memorable, good humored, and dare I say it? Fun! We reached back out to Paul when we were ready to apply for citizenship, and my husband received his American citizenship last August. We owe so much to Paul and to the Choquette Immigration Law Group. If you are in need of a kind, compassionate and professional law group to handle your immigration process, you have found your team!

Working with Paul has been a wonderful 5-star experience. I found Paul's practice after reading all the great reviews on Google and he did not disappoint. While the pandemic slowed down everything, it did not slow down Paul's response for every single question we had. I'm always surprised how fast he responds to every email!! No matter how late it is or over the weekend when I don't expect immediate reply. Does he ever sleep?? I had horrible experiences before with company-sponsored lawyers who never respond to me in time despite I had a crisis with immigration and desperately pleading for a response. So I really appreciate how attentive Paul is to his client throughout the entire process. He understands what makes his clients feel comfortable and at ease and he makes sure they have the optimal support they can get. My interview process was very smooth. It went exactly like how Paul predicted it when we had our prep call, beat by beat. I highly recommend Paul's practice to everyone
