Holthe Immigration Law

I have been following Mark Holthe for many years, regularly taking guidance from his online blogs, podcasts, and immigration updates. I also had the pleasure of meeting him in person during a National Seminar where he was a guest speaker. Among dozens of speakers, I found Mark to be the most impressive and impactful. Recently, we had the opportunity to engage with Mark in a professional capacity, seeking his assistance as an employer with a Judicial Review for one of our employee’s work permit refusals. I was truly impressed by his professionalism, in-depth knowledge, and straightforward approach. He was very clear about the costs involved and transparent in explaining both the potential benefits and limitations of the Judicial Review process. Mark provided us with fair, balanced, and comprehensive information, allowing us to make an informed decision about how to proceed. His colleague Igor was also present during the consultation, and I found him to be equally knowledgeable and insightful. Together, they made a strong and reassuring team, offering practical advice and demonstrating genuine care for our situation. I highly appreciate Mark’s expertise and the professionalism of his team, and I would confidently recommend them to anyone seeking reliable immigration legal support.

Mark is extremely thorough and a great listener. Obviously, he is extremely knowledgeable and thorough with his area of expertise, and yet very humble and kind. After having considered God knows how many immigration consultants and lawyers both in my home country and in Canada, I really felt I’m in good hands , with Mark. He’s the guy I’d be retaining for all my future applications. Very transparent, ethical, professional and empathetic.

I've been very pleased with Mark's legal services. As a potential immigrant to Canada from the US, I have so many questions about all aspects of a possible move, and didn't know where to start. Mark is warm and helpful and always provides me a copy of his meeting notes promptly after our meetings. Mark is curious and always seems to be learning as the immigration policies in Canada change. I feel I'm in good hands as I contemplate a very complex move, and as Mark and I work together step-by-step to navigate the process.

This team of exceptionally standout lawyers are an INTERNATIONAL TREASURE. Igor came into our case fully competent and compassionate. He was meticulous, pulling out requirement checklists which the IRCC seemed to prefer as secret pitfalls for even the most detail-minded applicant. And he helped us beat absolutely delicate deadlines, which would have altered the course of my family's immigration journey. I recommend the team without reservation. They are candid, competent and compassionate. Aboh

My 30-minute consult with Alicia was fantastic! She was very patient in explaining complex immigration processes in a way that didn't make me feel dumb, and her recommendations showed me that she was genuinely looking out for the best interests of my family and me. Alicia made me feel heard, while delivering facts about the pros and cons to different immigration avenues. I highly recommend Alicia to working families!

I had the pleasure of working with Igor Kyryliuk, and it was a truly positive experience. He’s not only highly knowledgeable in his field but also incredibly approachable and easy to talk to. From the beginning, Igor took the time to clearly explain everything, answer all my questions, and guide me through each step with patience and care. I always felt like I was in good hands, he was organized, responsible, and genuinely committed to helping me. It’s rare to find someone who combines professionalism with such a supportive attitude. I’m very thankful for his help and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a great immigration lawyer.

This firm operates on a level where excellence isn’t the goal—it’s the baseline. We’ve had the privilege of working with Mark Holthe on several immigration matters over the years, and more recently with Igor Kyryliuk from his team. Each time, we’ve trusted them, and they delivered with consistent expertise, care, and professionalism. Mark’s depth of knowledge is remarkable. From the very first conversation, you know you’re in expert hands. What sets him apart isn’t just his expertise, but the way he treats people—with warmth, patience, and compassion. He makes you feel like more than a client—like someone he genuinely wants to help. Igor is phenomenal. He’s sharp, detail-oriented and very knowledgeable. He's very friendly, and clear and thoughtful in his communications. It’s clear that this level of excellence runs deep in the culture of their firm. They don’t just handle paperwork—they handle people, and they do it with care, class, and confidence.
