This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Bad Lawyer.

The worst lawyer we have ever met.lack of professionalism and ethics.He is very good at convincing people to give him their money but once you pay him he never answers.He is a white collar thief.Does not do his job diligently.Very bad service and at the end of the case , when it is denied he asks you... again for money to do it again.

D O N O T !!!

HE DOES NOT KNOW THE LAW, BAD PROFESSIONAL. ONLY SPEAKS BEAUTIFULLY BEWARE! THIS GUY IS A MONEY PIT. HE IS VERY TALENTED AT CONVINCING YOU TO GIVE HIM MONEY. ONCE YOU PAY HIM IT IS GOING TO BE IMPOSSIBLE TO CONTACT HIM OR ANYBODY AT HIS OFFICE EITHER BY EMAIL OR PHONE AND THEY EVEN WORK FROM HOME MO...ST DAYS SO FORGET TO GO TO THEIR OFFICE. DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND DO NOT EVEN CALL THIS FIRM.

DO NOT HIRE!!!

I consulted Buitrago. He talks beautifully and is very convincing and persuasive, DO NOT FALL in that trap. He and his paralegals are liers. I was very naive and pay lots of money in advance. Now when I try to contact them it is impossible. I paid for a job they never did almost a year ago. Now I am ...losing my case my money and my time. Please red their negative reviews on google and dont believe the other reviews here which I believe are written by themselves.

My citizenship

Ernesto Buitrago and his team are amazing! He worked my case to file for my citizenship because I had some issues and guess what! I'm going in for my oath ceremony!! All the other lawyers told me not to do it and I won't get it and he gave me hope. Thank you so much for all your help! I recommend him...!
