Tulio Gerardo Suarez

Working with Attorney Tulio has been an exceptional experience. From the very beginning, he guided me through what can often be a complex and stressful process. Mr. Suarez was consistently professional, responsive, and incredibly patient. He took the time to explain each step clearly, answered all... of my questions thoroughly, and provided reassurance when it was most needed. His confidence and calm approach were a great source of comfort and helped me stay focused and hopeful throughout. I am truly grateful for his dedication and support. Thanks to his expertise and attention to detail, everything went as anticipated, and the outcome was exactly what we had hoped for. I highly recommend Mr. Suarez to anyone seeking knowledgeable and compassionate immigration counsel.

I cannot fully express my gratitude for the extremely high quality legal service afforded to my family and myself in order to achieve our goal in becoming the proud citizens of this great country. These last several years have been difficult and stressful with the multiple procedures and fomalitie...s needed, and through all this Mr. Tulio Suarez has done an amazing job, going above and beyond, to make sure that we were right on track for all the finer aspects of our case, at times difficult and confused to say the least. He has been simply amazing in having our backs at all times and getting the best possible results, and he even devoted the time to fly out several times from Florida to Texas to accompany us for the various appointments scheduled, with a great amount of patience, encouragement and cheerfulness. Having hired several lawyers in the course of my life I can certainly certify that he is the very best that I have had up to now, and my family and I have been totally satisfied by his services. I would certainly recommend Mr. Suarez each and every single time for his level of professionalism and success, resulting in total client satisfaction and content.

Apologies in advance for all the detail and for any suspicions about USCIS that may come through in this review. Let me say clearly, without Attorney Tulio Suarez guiding me every step of the way through a process that likely would have been an immediate falure under many many other attorneys, my un...happiness would not have turned into the BIG SMILE I am wearing today. Here is my story: In 2019 I my application for US citizenship was denied after a 4-year process beginning with my marriage to a US ciitzen. Denial was based on an erroneous claim by the officer that I had not spent sufficient time on US soil. BOGUS since my Passport stamps, my airline records AND USCIS internal records showed otherwise. Based on multiple unfounded and unsupported accusations by the officer during my final interview that I had married for a green card, this appeared to be a clear case of bias. Ridiculous accusations since my husband and had been together for EIGHT years before getting married. Suspiciously, a denial letter was never sent to me, unlike all other USCIS correspondence in previous years. And by the time I was able to discover the denial decision, the 33-day window for appeal had closed. I was even more angry than I was devastated. Worse, I was told by USCIS I would have to wait at least 2 years and as long a 4 years before starting the Naturalization process again! I was living in Nevada at the time and thus began a nationwide search for an attorney who could help. I was politely turned down by several who pointed to standard wording in a typical denial letter referencing the long wait. Finally, I was referred to Tulio Suarez by a friend of my husband. Tulio offered no guarantees but felt the "2 - 4 year wait" was boilerplate wording and possibly not legally defensible. My husband and I immediately relocated to Miami in early 2020 to establish Florida residency. Covid hit literally that same month. Government agencies and private industry slowed to a crawl. But we loved South Florida and decided to stick it out. Tulio skillfully sheparded my new application thru the process and it was not questioned or rejected. On December 28, 2020 just 10 months after our Miami arrival and in spite of Covid, I was called in for my "second" final interview. Tulio accompanied me. It went beautifully unlike my "first" final interview. The officer told me I passed and in fact tried to administer the "Oath of Allegiance" on the spot". But here things suddenly turned suspicious. She was unable to log into the system which apparently is used for the "Oath". I say suspicious because this is exactly the same story three different girlfriends have to told me regarding their 10-year green card interviews. Told they passed, the officer could not log on to the system, they were assured they would receive something in writing within a week, then SILENCE. Nothing. I experienced the same thing. I was handed a letter telling me I passed the interview and was being recommended for citizenship. And was told I would receive a letter within a week telling me where and when to report for my "Oath". But nothing. Weeks passed. Then months. Tulio doggedly attempted to get an explanation. USCIS makes it impossible to talk to a real person even if you are a well known attorney. But he percervered.with letters and attempts via the USCIS online system. After more than a year I authorized him to file a lawsuit against USCIS. But before filing, USCIS suddenly responded saying my case was under extended review. Tulio, after thorough research, fired off an detailed response setting forth the law and the facts of my case. Meanwhile, not having seen my family or my dog except for video calls to him :-) for more than two years, I got on a plane for the Philippines. But within a week, USCIS emailed me congratulating me on being approved for US citizenship! I raced back to the US and took my Oath of Allegiance on April 28. Blue Passport coming soon! TULIO ROCKS!

First I would like to say that prior to hiring Mr. Suarez my wife and I interviewed several local attorneys here in Fort Myers, FL. Several attorneys did not listen to our specific needs and had a predetermined approach of handling our situation. This type of approach I knew was not an option for o...ur circumstances. At a previous time my wife had hired shady attorneys in past and we wanted to be certain that this time we were going to do this right! Upon meeting Mr. Suarez and discussing our specific options and circumstances we decided, he was the one that would take us down this long journey of combating the immigration system. Mr. Suarez was and continued to be extremely thorough with the entire process from start to finish. At times I thought to myself "why is he asking me for documents that did not seem to have any relevancy" . It turned out it did and we were thankful as this allowed us to go thru the process with little requests for evidence. Mr. Suarez also has a "online portal" that makes it easy upload documents he is requesting, review documents that he has completed, see any updates from USCIS that he has received, and communicate thru email. "SUPER EASY"! For any veterans or active military be sure to advise him or your status. This information was critical in my wife obtaining her green card. It was an additional step however considering the alternative it was well worth it!!!!!!!! If you are seeking legal assistance for your immigration needs, Mr Suarez should be the only one you should be considering. Locality is not an issue due to the online portal discussed above. Sincerely and Thankfully Bret
