Green card and citizenship

We engaged Luciane to assist us in obtaining a green card for our daughter. We are extremely pleased with her services throughout the entire process.

Highly skilled immigration attorney

Working with Luciane Tavares on my immigration process was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From our first interaction, she was incredibly knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. Luciane guided me through every step with professionalism and clarity, making wh...at could have been a stressful process feel manageable and even empowering. Her expertise in immigration law is truly remarkable, and it was clear throughout our work together that she brings not only years of experience but also a deep commitment to her clients. I always felt supported, informed, and confident that my case was in the best possible hands. I highly recommend Luciane to anyone in need of immigration or business legal services. She is not only an exceptional attorney but also a kind and trustworthy person who truly cares about the people she represents.

Think carefully! Pense Bem!

I hired American Immigration Associates for an EB-1 visa. Luciane Florencio MacArthur Tavares and her partner, Tatiana Kiçula, are the primary responsible for the case. Unfortunately I had several problems and a great loss! In addition to having a poor service and little experience for this type of v...isa, does not answer, does not return, and leave you waiting even at a scheduled time !!! Look, it's easier to do business with the Pope! Never, ever recommend this company in particular this team for any type of service or else the problem is guaranteed! Run away while it's time !!! The service is arrogant and very time consuming, and not enough ... after having made the TOTAL payment of the visa, still managed to make things worse, at last I had to give up the visa for seeing that I could never be approved for the lack of will and support of the American Immigration Associates and Luciane Florencio MacArthur Tavares! Believe me it's very serious !!! Eu contratei a American Immigration Associates para um visto EB-1, Sendo a principal responsável pelo caso a advogada Luciane Florencio MacArthur Tavares e sua parceira Tatiana Kiçula. Infelizmente tive diversos problemas e um grande prejuízo! Além de ter um péssimo atendimento e pouca experiência para esse tipo de visto, não atende, não retorna, e te deixar esperando mesmo com horário marcado!!! Olha é mais fácil fazer negócio com o Papa! Nunca, jamais recomendaria essa empresa em especial essa equipe para qualquer tipo de serviço ou então o problema é garantido! Fuja enquanto é tempo!!! O atendimento é arrogante e muito demorado, e não bastando... depois de ter feito o pagamento TOTAL do visto, ainda conseguiram piorar as coisas, enfim tive que desistir do visto por ver que nunca conseguiria ser aprovado pela falta de vontade e suporte da American Immigration Associates e Luciane Florencio MacArthur Tavares! Acreditem é muito sério!!!

Firstly, I would like to thank you for taking the time to share with us of your experience. It is only through feedback such as yours that we are able to maintain and where necessary, improve upon the service that we provide to our valued clients. I was very disappointed to read your review. While an apology will not alter the outcome of your experience, I kindly ask for you to consider our sincere apologies. Although we understand your frustration, it is important for you and any other person applying for any immigration benefit, to understand that the processing time of any application is based on USCIS case load. Lately, we have noticed some delays across the country. We would like to apologize for the confusion but Ms. Kicula is not a partner of the firm. As we mentioned, we are taking measures to improve. As a result, we embarked together with a software company to create a project to modernize the immigration process, and if implemented, will reduce attorney's timing preparing petitions and will facilitate even more the communication with the clients. Again, please accept our apologies. Kind regards,

Relationship: Co-worker

"I endorse this lawyer. I met Mrs. Tavares on October 2016. Since then, we have worked together. Mrs. Tavares has never curtailed any effort to make her colleagues and client understand that her main objective is to focus on the needs of others. Mrs. Tavares is a person devoted to caring for and helping her family. Mrs. Tavares constantly offers support to the community members through Pro-Bono cases and charity actions. For example, I remember witnessing Mrs. Tavares giving a donation check for the Legal Aid Society of the Orange County Bar Association. Professionally, Mrs. Tavares is a driven, hardworking, innovative and a very thoughtful attorney. She addresses her coworkers and clients under the highest standards of decency and cordiality. Additionally, I have never known anyone quite so gentle even under adverse and stressful circumstances. It has been my pleasure to have the opportunity to work together with Mrs. Tavares."

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.
