Regis Fernandez - Best lawyer in NJ.

Regis Fernandez is very professional, knowledgable and experienced lawyer in immigration. He helped my parents get a permanent resident status without any issues. I met Mr. Regis Fernandez in Oct 2016 and discussed my case with him for my parents. Our case was really a difficult and complicated one,... where other lawyers were not confident about the case, but after discussing our case with Mr. Regis, he reviewed our case details and accepted the case with confidence. He did tell us that the case is difficult one but not an impossible case. We have chances. Not only that, he gave us the confidence and trust that “we will succeed” in this case. He explained us in details on what basis we will be submitting the petitions and the chances of it to getting approved….and our petitions did get APPROVED. Thank you so much!! If he would not have accepted the case, our lives would be completely in different situation. It was all his dedication, professionalism and expertise that made the difference between - what at first seemed an impossible one and into a reality now. So once again, we deeply thank you Mr. Regis and his superb team for doing such a excellent job!  We would highly, highly recommend him, to anyone seeking help in immigration process without hesitation. We wish him all the best for the future endeavors. Thank you and god bless you and your family!!

AMAZING ATTORNEY AND STAFF

MY CASE WAS A TOUGH ONE. I HAD ONE, IF NOT BOTH FEET OUT OF THIS COUNTRY. SOMEONE RECOMMENDED ME TO REGIS FERNANDEZ AND FROM THE VERY BEGINNING HE WAS VERY HONEST ABOUT MY SITUATION. HE TOLD ME THAT MY CASE WAS VERY DIFFICULT, BUT NOT AN IMPOSSIBLE CASE. AS HE HAD SAID, MY CASE WASN'T EASY, BUT TODA...Y I AM PROUD AND VERY HAPPY TO SAY THAT I'M A PERMANENT RESIDENT AND FUTURE CITIZEN OF THIS BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY. I'M ETERNALLY GREATFUL TO MR. REGIS AND HIS FANTASTIC WORK TEAM. ALL OF THEM DID AN EXCELLENT JOB, VERY PROFESSIONAL, AND MOST IMPORTANT, THEY LISTEN AND CARE ABOUT THE PERSON. THAT, NOT ONLY MAKES HIM A GOOD ATTORNEY, IT MAKES HIM A GREAT ATTORNEY.

Amazing

The most difficult immigration case is easy for Mr Regis, didn't rush my case, didn't discourage me, did an amazing job keeping me home with my family. Attorney who showed my family support, knows he most get paid but money seems to be his last worrisome. An amazing immigration attorney.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
