  Atty. Sakata has been a great help with my green card application. He was there every step of the way from preparation, submission of our documents, up until our case was APPROVED. My husband and I are grateful that we were able to connect with him after searching for the best immigration lawyer in our location. I highly recommend his services on any immigration related concerns as he is highly knowledgeable, professional, and easy to work with.

  I had a great experience with Atty. Cliff. He had helped me soo much getting my green card while I was in the Philippines. Everything was processed electronically while I was waiting for my papers to get back to the USA. Communication was outstanding! Very responsive and very patience with my queries. He also assisted me with Naturalization. Atty Clifford Sakata is very knowledgeable, and very experienced in his field. Highly recommended, the best Immigration lawyer! 😊

  Cliff is highly regarded in our immigration community as he is known for representing many local community organizations and individuals. He is experienced in handling immigration challenges faced by his clientele, and is able to empathize with the stresses and uncertainty clients face while going through the process. I had the opportunity to go over a possible case with him about a complicated matter, and he had a lot of good insight into case strategy and issues to be aware of. I wouldn't hesitate to call Clifford Sakata for help with an immigration matter.

  I honestly couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to help me with my green card. From the start, he always kept my husband and I updated with every step and every piece of news, which made me feel so much more at ease. He explained everything in a way I could understand and really reassured us that the whole process was going to go smoothly and it actually did! The thing I appreciated the most is how fast and organized he was. What seemed like such a scary and stressful process ended up being way easier than I thought, because he took the time to guide me through everything and make sure it was all done right. I'm super thankful for all his help and would recommend him to anyone, especially if you want someone who actually cares, keeps you in the loop, and gets things done quickly.

  Working with Cliff was the best decision for our immigration case. He kept us calm and confident, walking us through everything—from preparing our documents to the interview itself. He responded quickly to our emails and was happy to schedule video calls whenever we had questions. We couldn't be happier with his professionalism and the quality of his service. Highly recommend!

  I don't believe I can write a review that adequately details how positive our experience working with Cliff was. Cliff successfully helped my wife get a visa twice. Once in 2017 and again this year. When I engaged him for the second visa June last year, he remembered everything about us from the first time which is mind blowing. He clearly walked us through the process of applying for the visa and clearly set expectations for what should be expected at each step. We also had multiple check-in calls and Zooms throughout. He is extremely prompt in replying to queries via email, always there when I called, and proactively let's you know when he will be out of the office to ensure anything time sensitive is done prior. Cliff also speaks Japanese, which really helped my wife understand everything clearly and took the burden off of me to translate. From start to finish on BOTH occasions, Cliff was exceptional. My wife and I could not recommend him higher.

  Cliff has helped me through two major immigration matters—first with my own U.S. citizenship and most recently with my wife and stepchildren's green card cases. We just completed their immigrant visa process successfully, and I'm extremely grateful for his help throughout the entire process. What I appreciate most about Cliff is that he genuinely cares about his clients. Whenever I had questions or concerns, he was always responsive and usually got back to me within just a few hours. Immigration can be a stressful process, and having an attorney who is knowledgeable, dependable, and easy to reach made a huge difference for our family. My wife and stepchildren plan to apply for U.S. citizenship when they become eligible in a few years, and I will definitely be going back to Cliff. I highly recommend him and his firm.
