I was referred to Wilens and baker by a friend on an I130 case that was stuck and I needed help get it moving. When I went there they took me into a small round room and a lady was looking hardly into my eyes and Mr. Wilens/Baker standing at the door. They were both questioning me as if they're going to find me a criminal and not here to get help on an immigration case. The questions were quick and asked in a way to confuse a person. They don't give you time to explain or speak they just ask do you want to do this or not. He stated he guarantees that my wife (back home overseas) will get her visa in two to three months for the price of $3500. He also tried to scare me by stating I guarantee you/how much do bet me your case will be denied otherwise. They asked me where I work, I said at the United Nations and he responded that the UN is a bullshit system and some other negative descriptions I don't remember. I just work there I have nothing to do with politics or anything else. He asked me other questions about how long I've been married and how long I spent with my wife as if he's saying our marriage is one big lie, bogus. He stated that's why it's not going anywhere and you wouldn't come to us if you think everything is ok.
Then he assigned me another attorney and went to his office. He was much nicer and gave me a chance to speak. I told this attorney I didn't expect they would treat me this way and I'm here for an immigration case. What's going on, have I been understood for someone else? He stated their environment is aggressive and that I feel this way because I'm not used to it. He asked for a down payment of $1500 and $500 monthly payments for a total of $3500. The rude attorney Wilens/Baker came back, standing at the door, and asked the assistant attorney: what are you doing, no more discussions, client either pay now or leave. I took off my bank checks book to write a down payment of $1500 but Wilens/Baker said rudely they don't take checks and I have to pay with a debit card. I felt unsafe about this transaction and I told him I don't think I have enough money in the bank. He ordered me rudely to take my file and leave the office. As I was leaving, he yelled at me saying get out of my office don't come here any more, I sized you the moment I saw you. I asked myself what sizing he is talking about, was I found guilty of a crime or what. He said it as if he's confident no body can get to them and I can not do anything about it. I needed to complain but found it hard where to start until I found this website today. It came into my mind that I cannot be the only one and I have to look the web to find other clients complaints and negative comments about this firm. I found this website and felt relieved. Thank you for giving me a chance to get something off of my chest and warn others. Thank you
