About Steve
Biography
I was born in Argentina, and was brough to the US as a child. My family came from Hungary, Italy, Spain, Cuba and Argentina. I went through the immigration process and felt what it was like to not belong. I also learned that this country offered lmitless possibilities, as long as you were willing to work very hard for them. This is what got me where I am, through Stuyvesant High School, UNC Chapel Hill and Georgetown Law, and what propeled me to launch my own law firm in 2004.
My goal is to help good people realize their unique versions of the American Dream, just as I have been able to do.

.A great immigration attorney :-)
Steve was brilliant! He took me through the whole process of obtaining a Green Card. His attention to detail was great and he was very thorough, Even though it can be stressful dealing with Government departments Steve made the process as simple as possible. I would highly recommend him.

He helped me make my dreams come true.
I tried to apply to come to America in 3 different opportunities and was always denied, I was giving up when I met Steve and in less than a year I got my green card. He helped me like no one else did before. I live in Florida now and I am so happy. Thank you Steve!
