Great Lawyer! Who put Professionalism and Service First over making a buck

I called Mr Muguzi's office. He answered the phone. Was busy with something else. Yet took the time to listen to me. About a immigration matter. Answered my questions. Alley my fears. Gave me a solution. Most people wanted $150 or more before they would listen to me. Few who listened, wan...ted from $500 - $1500 dollars to fill out a web form. All others carefully withheld information that would have helped me file the paperwork myself. None of them outlined what I needed to do, what I can expect to happen. So Kudos to this man. There are still a few honorable lawyers are left in the world.

Highly recommended, working with Mr. Martin, the service was execeptional

There is really no need to physically going into his office while preparing the paper Work, all the correspondence was done online via his web portal, I would upload the required files to his site, that really made it easy on my part. Also promptly sent me reminders on any upcoming appointments like ...for the biometrics. We filed for my citizenship at the beginning on Feb 2016, on April 26th was my interview where was approved for being a citizen but a few days before that I went to his office to prep so that helped me when I actually went for the interview, highly recommended, thank you for the great service.

Excellent lawyer

Your advice on how to handle the complex process of bringing my family over from Africa especially for my kids and my late brother's kids (adopted) was superb and worked out fast. They joined me in no time!! Thanks to you. Probably, the best decision I made was to hire your law firm from the very beg...inning with my asylum case. Was granted after the first interview and the rest has been success after success... I don't know how you do it, but your team is amazing.

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.
