  • They charge the most fees, while providing the least amount of service! A potential employer of mine selected Bellissimo to draw up the paperwork for a NAFTA visa. I had been looking into immigration lawyers on my own separate from this, and Bellissimo was the worst experience I had. First, Bellissimo charged for the initial consultation, whereas the other immigration lawyers offered it for free. Secondly, Bellissimo wanted about 2.5x the amount of money as the other highly-rated lawyers I spoke with (Other lawyers were $1000 and $1200 total cost, Belissimo wanted $2500 from the employer plus $1500 from me personally, which wasn't even in the same ballpark as any other employer I looked at - this was on top of the fee for the initial consultation). My research indicates it is abnormal to charge the employee a fee for this (with the employer paying the total cost, typically $1000-$1500 total) Third, when I asked about what exactly they were doing for the $1,000 fee I had to personally pay, they were evasive. Best I can tell, this was a money grab and the answer is almost nothing. But the icing on the cake was during the (PAID!) initial consultation I asked the attorney how importing my belongings to Canada worked, the answer I received was "That's a customs question, I'm an immigration attorney" - while that's a technically correct answer, the two things go hand-in-hand, and I felt the message that was delivered was quite rude. My question was very basic (essentially, what do I need to do to bring a moving truck of my belongs across the border). Overall, I got more value out of a free consultation with another lawyer than the paid consultation with Bellissimo, and thankfully ended up doing the NAFTA visa with another law group. Between the high cost, the evasiveness, and the attitude, I would recommend people go elsewhere.
