My personal experience with Daniel Celaya

First and foremost, I wanted to give a big thank you to Daniel Celaya for helping us through my husband through his immigration issues. First Daniel was very attentive with my husband’s case from the begging to the end. Daniel would always keep us updated with any issue that we were going on with i...mmigration. Daniel would call and/or email us. He responded promptly and professionally. He would also remind us when we had to renew my husband work permit through this 3-year process to make sure it came in on time so that my husband would not lose his job. Daniel worked very hard on our appeal in the immigration court and at the end, all his hard work showed. We won our final court! I will always be grateful to him and with his hard work. I strongly recommend him to anyone that is going through similar situation. Once again thank you so much Daniel you helped keep my family together!

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.
