Very Unprofessional, Disorganized, Not Reputable

I requested to speak w/this attorney 3 wks ago and STILL haven't gotten as much as a phone call from his office. I received an email that they would pull my husband's file & get back to me, but that has not happened yet. And, they have my phone number. They call it when they want more money! The oth...er reviews are accurate. This attorney relies on his commercials, name & facial recognition to get his business and then drops the ball once he gets it. He often turns cases over to other attorneys to handle or his staff ( which are very disorganized, unprofessional and sometimes rude). Once they get your money they lose you in the shuffle of all the other cases they have. We started my husband's case 2 yrs ago with this attorney and I have yet to get to speak to the lawyer to get answers to my questions. We have paid hard earned money to him & deserve a phone call. I cannot recommend anyone use his services.

Quede ilegal culpa de el.

El abogado trató muy mal mi caso de lotería de visa al punto de que me dejó ilegal por más de 10 años. No conoce las leyes, no sabe nada. Lo único que sabe es robarle el dinero a la gente. Es pésimo.

Desafortunadamente no podemos localizar sus records en la oficina, por haber hecho el comentario como anónimo. Nuestra oficina NO OFRECE SERVICIOS de lotería de visa. Si tiene alguna duda, favor llamar al (305)443-3900 y con mucho gusto le ayudamos. Un simple recordatorio que nuestra oficina maneja más de 5 mil casos anuales con un porcentaje de aprobaciones de más del 90% y esta es la fórmula de nuestro éxito en ayudar a miles de inmigrantes a lograr su sueno americano!

Good Attorney

I came into the United States in June, 1969 legally. I had a son born in Nicaragua who needed to come into the US legally. I came to the Law Offices of Attorney Jorge Rivera for legal representation, and after much work by his office, my son is in the United States, in a legal status as of this time....

The Best Attorney in immigration! His staff is not the best though.

I visited Maney and Gordon's office 2 years ago and met with another attorney who gave me a mediocre treatment; around 6 months ago I went there again looking for Mr. Rivera because I had heard many good things about him. He treated me with respect and helped me and my wife with all our paperwork. We... are so thankful and we couldn't be happier with his warm personality. He treated us like family. Thanks to him we are now happy, living as USA citizens.

Avvo Rating

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.
