Fantastic immigration lawyer!

We were extremely happy with and would highly recommend Zulma for immigration visa applications. She is very friendly and knowledgeable. She made us feel very comfortable as a same-sex couple and was able to deal with the extra complexity of us being based outside the USA and needing a co-sponsor. Sh...e answered all our questions promptly, provided expert guidance and even moral support through the process. We appreciated the fact that the fees were upfront, with no surprises. Best of all, our application was successful, and we look forward to relocating to the US in the near future! Thanks Zulma!

Thank You Attorney Zuma Lopez

Attorney Zuma Lopez of Lopez Immigration is absolutely amazing. Attorney Lopez from the start took on our case and made us feel like family. Being a part of the LGBTQ community, my wife and I were nervous at first when we were looking for representation regarding our immigration process, but Attorne...y Lopez made us feel comfortable, she assured us we would be ok, and she walked through the whole process with us, never leaving us alone. She is very knowledgeable about the process and kept us informed. Needless to say, we were successful and very happy. Definitely money well spent. We are so very grateful to her and reccomend her to anyone, no matter your status or orientation, you will not be sorry. Thank you so much Attorney Zuma Lopez.

A Marriage Immigration Success Story

The whole process of marriage immigration is nerve wracking, complicated and confusing. Working with Zulma as she guided us through the entire process step by step made this seemingly daunting process go smoothly as she guided along the way. She was always available for every question we had and th...orough with her responses. Her calm and reassuring approach helped us through what could be a very stressful situation. Zulma truly made what seemed like the impossible become a reality for us, and for that we're ever grateful. We look forward to continuing to work with her on our situation as needed in the future. Thank you Zulma!

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.
