Excellent

I only feel compelled to write a review regarding how KNOWLEDGEABLE this lawyer and his associates are. Every single question had an answer, and extra explanation. I am extremely happy and satisfied with how my case was resolved. Now my husband is seeing him for immigration, and again, the office has... been amazing. Also- he is so quick. You don't have to worry about being unnecessarily billed. He bills you for what he does- and my case was extremely difficult. On pricing, he is so transparent. I was never shocked, and he provides a much better and more understanding price than other attorneys.

Total Trust

I trusted Avelino and his associates with my immigration case, which was quite complex about 7 years ago. Every lawyer I had visited had taken my money and left me in the same spot. Avelino was honest, helpful, quick, and incredibly knowledgeable about the process. I reccomend him to everybody who is... in need of a great lawyer.

He Really Does EVERYTHING!

I have been a client of Avelino my whole life, and I have recommended him to multiple friends and family. Everybody comes back with great reviews and recommendations. I feel confident enough to go to him with any issue, knowing he will know just how to approach the problem. He has the best qualities ...a lawyer could hold- he will take it straight to the point and he is HONEST. If your case has no chance, he will tell you. His team is also wonderful. Great lawyer!

Just NO

Let me start off by saying that he does offer a free first time visit/consultation. But that's about it with the positives. Just that first time visit was enough to convince me that this gentleman is anything but professional. I wasted about an hour waiting for him to see me (this would have been acc...eptable if I had actually gotten anything positive out of our meeting), and after I was finally walked to his office I received what can only be described as the most condescending treatment I've ever experienced. He did not stand up to greet me, he did not close the door (as it should have been done, given that I did not wish to share my private matters with his whole office staff and clients waiting outside), and he started the conversation by asking me "so, why are you here?" (no good afternoons, or even a simple hello). Throughout the whole 10-20 min that I was there trying to explain to him the situation that had brought me there, I was being constantly interrupted by his assistants/paralegals; at no point he asked them to please wait outside until we were done, at no point he even apologized to me for the constant interruptions; like my time was obviously NOT valuable to him. Just that treatment alone would put him as the very last attorney I would consider hiring. He has this obnoxious attitude of "I'M doing YOU a favor". Overall, needless to say I would not recommend Avelino Gonzalez to anyone.

Excellent and Professional lawyer

Avelino González is not just an excellent professional but he is also a great and honest guy. He will tell you exactly what you need to know, going straight to the point, without trying to charm his way into your wallet with false promises. The cost of his services are very reasonable compared to the... quality of his work and great customer service. He will always answer your calls and give you a straightforward response, and no matter what time, Avelino is ALWAYS AVAILABLE. I trust Avelino completely, with all my businesses as well as private personal matters, and recommend him 100%.
