More than a lawyer, a friend.

My case was not a simple one. It solution depended on knowledge and commitment. That was what Hans and Magaly did. And after two very difficult years they found the favorable solution. In my case they were good lawyers, but more than lawyers they were friends

The best.

Hans and his team of professionales are knowledgable and show passion for what they do. The icing on the cake was that they proved to be trully compassionate and respectul with us, the customers. I would recommend Hans to any friend or relative if needed.

He is excellent in the immigration field, for me and my friends, the best.

Recently he work in an inmigration case of a friend, and he was excellent, the passion he shows with the case only comes from a genuine belief in what you do.

A knowledgeable lawyer of integrity

Since I retired from the F.B.I. in 2002 my company has worked for a number of lawyers on cases ranging from immigration to corporate fraud and criminal defense. As an F.B.I. agent, I also knew Hans when he was an immigration prosecutor. Of all the lawyers I've worked with, Hans stands out in his know...ledge of immigration law, his integrity, and his commitment to his clients. As a P.I. I'm frequently asked for lawyer recommendations. The only immigration lawyer I recommend is Hans.

Honesty and Integrity

When I met Hans Burgos, I was going thru one of the toughest times in my life. Along with personal problems, I was carrying the burden of a tough immigration case, which could potentially cause me to have to leave the US. As soon as I went into his office, I realized that I was dealing with a diff...erent firm. Unlike some lawyers offices, Hans and his team of professionals proved to be caring, respectfull and knowledgable all the way thru the entire process. At the end, it was Hans' dedication and attention to detail that granted mi case's successful outcome. The best immigration firm, hands down.

  • 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.
