Great and outstanding lawyer and Law Firm.
After a long battle and waiting, I received my permanent residence status. The Urbina Law Firm is one of the best. They treated me as a person and not just a case. They had my interest at heart. They went an extra mile to make sure my case didn't delay longer than necessary. They are very organized and know what they are doing, so when I went to the court, my case was very short and easy. I strongly and confidently recommend Mr Michael Urbina and his law firm.

GREAT LAWYER
Fate put me suddenly in an awkward situation where I lost all hope. Luckily I got in touch with Urbina Law Firm. After years of hard work they were able to achieve what I longed for. Finally I got my green card. This law firm really deserves to be praised because my case was difficult and complicated. Through this long journey of waiting they always gave me hope and good service. Always let me know when there was something for me. However, I must mention that the office staff is amazing. The Paralegal is very knowledgeable and sincerely had my interest at heart. I am indebted to Urbina Law Firm for standing beside me during my dark days and holding my hand all the way to victory. Thank you URBINA LAW FIRM.

STOPPED MY DEPORTATION!!!
This attorney took my case and got me out of deportation court. I couldn't be happier with his representation. He was sharp, punctual and always told me what would happen and it always came out just like he said. He is your guy for deportation cases.

Michael is the lawyer that I was looking for...
During the first meeting Michael took the time to explain the whole process, step by step and how we should present our claim for U.S. citizenship. After the first meeting we agreed to hired Michael's services to take our immigration case because, before to talk with Michael, we talked to two immigration lawyers and they said our case was not that simple. We are really happy with the results. We highly recommend Michael. He is a seasoned professional with the experience you are looking for to take your case. By the way, we already are citizens of U.S. (Español) Durante la primera reunión de Michael tomó el tiempo para explicarnos todo el proceso, paso a paso y cómo deberiamos presentar nuestro reclamo de la ciudadanía estadounidense. Después de la primera reunión acordamos contratar los servicios de Michael para tomar nuestro caso de inmigración, ya que, antes de hablar con Michael, hablamos con dos abogados de inmigración y nos dijeron que nuestro caso no era tan simple. Estamos muy contentos con los resultados. Recomendamos altamente Michael. Él es un profesional con la experiencia que busca para llevar su caso. Por cierto, ya somos ciudadanos de EE.UU.

Thank you for your service!
I highly recommend Michael Urbina whom I have known for 2 years, as an hacquaintance and as a client. He is not just a great lawyer but a admirable person, he walked me step by step on my case. Michael has great attention to detail, I am beyond grateful for his service and will continue to recommend him to family and friends.

Good and trustworthy lawyer!
My family hired Mr Urbina when I was arrested and detained by ICE. They've wanted to deport me based on an old case I had with them in FL. They reopened that case and marked me as an Arriving Alien which took away pure much all the hope I had that I can stay in the US. On the top of that I was in Stewart Detention center which has the worst Immigration Court in the US, 98.8% of the people who goes to that court get's deported. Altough I wasn't even eligible for voluntary departure Mr Urbina after a few courtdates,managed to get me that. Which allows me to return to the US soon, and even though it wasn't the outcome I was looking for under the circumstances it was the best he could do. He also came to see me many times while in detention got me ready what to expect before courtdates. I recommend Mr Urbina to anyone with Immigration issues.

Great Immigration Attorney!
I hired Attorney Urbina to represent me in an immigration matter. Other attorneys had told me that there was no hope for my case. He reviewed my situation with a lot of care and empathy. He explained me my options in detail. He was honest and knowledgeable. He kept me very well informed through the case. I am very happy to report that I have my work permit and I am working!
