A trustworthy lawyer and a smooth process.

We were informed about how the process was going, and the staff and Araneda were honest about the case and the estimate of how long it would take. We are thankful that we chose her.

Excellent immigration Lawyer

When we were told earlier by a lawyer in Arizona that our case is weak. Jorgelina on the other hand said our case is strong and she proved it by getting us our green card. Thank you for a good work done.

EB-2

My experience with Jorgelina Araneda as it relates to legal representation for my EB-2 application was excellent. Her professionalism, exceptional knowledge of the process and effective interactions made the experience an enriching one for me. She is relentless in ensuring her clients obtain a favor...able outcome. I have already recommended her to some of my friends and will continue to do so in the near and distant future. Her administrative support staff are equally effective in providing the much needed assistance to clients. You can certainly count on Jorgelina !

Avvo Rating

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.
