If you hire Suzanne, you couldn't possibly be in better hands.

A coworker recommended Suzanne Vazquez as the best immigration attorney in Florida. Mine was a very straightforward case of adjusting status after marrying a U.S. citizen but, oh boy, am I pleased and relieved that we hired Suzanne nonetheless. Suzanne and her team are knowledgeable, diligent, capabl...e, and professional. They always addressed our questions or concerns in a timely manner, especially Lucila Gonzalez. All of this was exactly what we needed when USCIS somehow lost my medical records and sent a letter rejecting the case. It was a terrifying and devastating moment for my husband and I, who had done everything right but got blamed for a mistake we didn't make. We contacted Suzanne and Lucila immediately and they started working on our case that same day. Suzanne rectified the situation with USCIS and got the doctor to see me again and issue a new documentation the very next day! Thanks to Suzanne the case got reopened and approved! In less than a month after the incident I had my green card in my hands. We were already set on hiring Suzanne for the next steps of my immigration process, but after this, there is no way we could ever even think of trusting anybody else with keeping our family together.

Professional and honest attorneys

We want to thank Suzanne Vazquez for her professionalism. We also greatly appreciate Daniela's attention, she is incredible. They helped us get the E-2 visa. When we had the first meeting with Suzanne, she was honest, so we appreciate it. Then during the Visa process, Suzanne and Daniela always answ...ered all of our questions and helped us with whatever we needed. We sincerely recommend Suzanne Vazquez and her team, Daniela Alvarado and Norelis Caldera, because they are excellent professionals.

Best immigration attorney

after 16 months of long wait on an immigration family based case, i contacted Ms suzanne vasquez and explained the case . She went straight to the point and explained me exactly what to expect. 16 months with no advancement in my case , and soon as i hired suzanne , my case moved forward and i receiv...ed my i130 approval for my spouse after being stuck in uscis. Suzanne told me back in may 2020 when i hired her that i can get reunited with my wife in september or october max. And yes , that s exactly what happenned , my wife obtained her IV on wednessay 14th of october , the whole staff were very professional and very responsive through emails qnd phone calls. After 16 months of stress , suzanne was the relief . Peace of mind and positive thinking. Me and my wife we appreciate her and her staff for everything they did for us . And by the way suzanne was my attorney also back in 2009 that helped me with my status adjustment on a very complicated iv case back then and used her aga8n in 2020 for my wife and will use her again for my wife n400 when it s time. Brief , she was my life saver . I recommend her 1000% , best attorney with over 20 years of experience in imm. Law . Big thank you also to her stuff especially Ayleen and norelis that were there for me everytime i called and suzanne was in court or at the immigratiin office. Peace of mind after lla lkng wait. Thank you suzanne for everything you did . Prices are very reasonable and payments on monrhly base were offered . Number 1 attorney best of the best!

"I do not practice immigration law. As a result I have referred clients to immigration attorneys for years. The work that has been performed for the clients I have referred has generally been satisfactory but not exceptional. That changed when I began referring cases to Suzanne. The results that she has achieved have been outstanding. Suzanne is the only immigration attorney that I now refer clients to and I highly recommend her to anyone with immigration problems."
