Unsatisfied

My wife and I had a consultation with Mr. Walker and then we did hire him to work on our case. He informed us what we had to do and about the steps we had to take to fix our problem. We decided to do the first step with him. He told us how much it cost, but would never tell us how much the other s...teps would be. He kept saying "Let's just focus on this first step and if it gets approved, we'll talk about the next." We would've liked to know estimates of how much money we were looking at. The travel distance and money were an issue so we didn't continue with him. We did get an approval letter from Immigration about the first step he worked on. We noticed there was a mistake on the letter. The mistake was made either by him or Immigration. I called him up to see if he could make a phone call to immigration to find out if they made the mistake or if he did. He said, "Why would I further expand my work with you if you got a new attorney?" It's not further expanding his work with us. It's fixing a mistake that was made when he worked on our case that we already paid for. It's one phone call to see where the error was made. We already paid for the first step to get done right. We did get a new attorney closer to home, but Mr. Walker won't fix it for us because we aren't paying him anymore.

Unsatisfied.

My wife and I were greatly dissapointed with the service we received from Mr. Walker. We were let down by the service we received after our initial consultation, where he informed us how knowledgeable and professional he was. On multiple occasions he would explain the situation and upon our next meet...ing the explanation would significantly differ. After our k-1 visa was denied, due to lack of substantiation, he then informed us that his fees would be substantially higher than were originally quoted. When I emailed him about my concerns and wanted to set up a day to discuss these changes his response was that his fees would not change so why waste each other's time. I sent a long email following that, explaining in great detail why I was having issues of trust. He responded that no one had ever accused him of inferior service and he would review my files and communications, that was 2 months ago and I still haven't heard from him.

Poor service

I hired him for my case. I paid him five thousand dollars in advance and also paid for his flight and hotel expenses. After getting the money he emailed me one day and said that nothing can be done for my case. Without even filing it he said it got refused and didn’t give me my money back.initially h...e said he will get my case approved.He just took the money and did nothing. So I would recommend everybody to stay away from him.

Mislead and lied to

I hired Ronald Walker when my father was detained by immigration. He was very reassuring and branded himself extremely well. We hired him to help us get our father out of jail and represent him in immigration court. My father was deported very quickly and never went to court. Mr. Walker kept the $5,0...00 we paid him upfront because he visited my father once and spoke to Border Patrol and ICE ONCE! We were taken advantage of at a vulnerable time by a very unethical and dishonest person! I wish I would’ve done more research! The only thing Mr. Walker did was sent a request to ICE to release him where he misspelled my father’s name 4 times and our last name 6 times. This clearly indicated he is extremely careless! I certain the fees are excessive and down right unethical! Save yourself the heartache and pain of being lied to in your time of need!
