Immigration Granted

I had a case regarding my immigration status. And my case was just recently been granted. We are so greatfull with the our attorney, Mr. Eric Lorenza who had been so thoroughly handling our case from the beginning until the approval of our case which took place for many years. His dedication to this ...matter is beyond words can explain.

Superb Lawyer

Eric is a top notch immigration lawyer. He made every effort to ensure that we comply with all legal matters pertaining to our EB5 petition. Excellent communication skills. All phone calls and emails answered promptly. So why should you believe what I'm saying. Well, my whole family is now in the US ...with permanent resident status (green card holders). If you ever decide to hire an immigration lawyer put Eric's name at the top of your list. Highly recommended.

Highly recommended

Eric Lorenzo is a very knowledgeable professional. I first used him for my immigration needs when I was applying for my citizenship. I later recommended him to my now wife to assist her with her very sensitive immigration case. On all times he has been extremely professional and knowledgeable. He goe...s above and beyond to ensure a smooth case review while maintaining his clients calm. My wife and I I have been able to obtain our citizenship thanks to his great work. I highly recommend him to any individual seeking to permanently stay in this country. -Marcos M

Mr. Lorenzo is a genuinely great person who cares about his clients & their outcomes

Mr. Lorenzo helped me with my citizenship application. Getting my permanent residency was an extremely complicated & lengthy process & I was very fearful that the citizenship process would be just as unnerving. Mr. Lorenzo is incredibly knowledgeable & competent & was very understanding of my concern...s. He held my hand (which I needed) & was very reassuring throughout. He went above & beyond to quell any fears I had & took much time to prepare me. I feel like he is one of my angels here on earth. I would highly recommend him to friends & family.

Green Card

We worked with and/or consulted two or three lawyers before we met Eric Lorenzo. I am an American citizen and my husband is from Mexico. We have been married over 10 years. With the previous lawyer we hired we waited 7 years and nothing ever happened. With Eric Lorenzo in about two years we had t...he green card. Eric was always very helpful with our questions. Always took extra time in his busy schedule. He is very straight forward and to the point... leaving no unexpected surprises. We have nothing but good things to say about Mr. Lorenzo... our only regret is we didn't find him sooner!

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.
