Q: How was your experience with Tukki compared to other law firms you’ve worked with?

A: I think there are a couple of things that stand out versus other firms. So one. This sounds really obvious, but no other firm that I’ve worked with, or that my co-founders have worked with get like, set up the email notifications.

So it usually takes them like a week or 5 days to give me an update where, if they would have set up the email notifications, they get it immediately. And I know Tukki, you guys always shared the updates with me immediately.

I also really appreciated the transparency. I know, from like my experience working with other firms, and in general, other people’s experience working with other firms. Sometimes, they get, I don’t know, “Hey? There was a mistake in this document. You need to resubmit it, and the firms don’t tell you; they just go and do it, and you’re never notified.” So I feel like Tukki is also really, really transparent with, like where we are in the process, what’s happening? What can happen? And I really appreciated that.

And then the other. The last thing is communication. So I feel like Tukki is really good at like we received this. This is what’s coming next. This is what you can expect versus going silent, which is what I feel like a lot of other immigration firms like, you know, they’re doing their job, but they don’t communicate well, so I had a really good experience, and I think those are like 3 things that stood out to me a lot versus other firms.

“I feel like [Tukki] is really, really transparent with where we are in the process, what’s happening, what can happen… And then the other [thing] is communication… you guys always shared the updates with me immediately versus going silent, which is what I feel like a lot of other immigration firms do.”

Q: What was your experience with the platform and how did you feel about the speed of the process?

A: I think it was really easy to use intuitive. I think it’s really helpful that you guys have, like all the like tips and tricks and examples of what this should be filled out like. I think that was really helpful.

I logged in a lot to see the progress, and the team moved really fast.

“I really felt like every single person on the team… everything that I was asking, or everything that they were doing, was like their top priority. And it’s so amazing to feel that support for something so important as immigration.”

Q: How would you summarize your experience with Tukki?

A: So I really felt like every single person on the team that I was working with, like everything that I was asking, or everything that they were doing, was like their top priority. And it’s just so comforting. And it’s so amazing to like feel that support for something so important as immigration.

“I logged in a lot to see the progress, and the team moved really fast… very, very good communication… that surprised me positively.”

“I got my O-1 visa approved thanks to the team at Tukki and their lawyers were amazing, a really good process.”
