As someone who immigrated to the United States, I know about the needs and struggles of immigrants. Unlike many other immigration lawyers, my office represents clients in all areas of Immigration Law. In addition to being Board Certified by the Florida Bar, as a Business Lawyer and former Prosecutor, I bring a depth of knowldege to cases involving business/investment immigration and to cases involving criminal convictions that many immigration lawyers do not possess.
As a result of my expertise and specialization in immigration matters, I am a frequent speaker at law conferences, I am often consulted by the media, and appear on Fox and Univision as a commentator on matters involving Immigration Law.

Fernando Perez. Excellent Lawyer you can trust in hisexperience and knowledge
We are very happy with the Fernando Perez , his knowledge about inmigration law, help us thru the inmigration process, with a excellent results for our company, and family. We highly recomend his services.
"Fernando is simply exceptional. I learned a lot from him during my days when I worked for him which was almost for 8 years. I think there are few immigration Attorneys who could match his Knowledge."
"I proudly endorse this lawyer. For nearly 20 years, our firm has been referring Mr. Perez immigration cases. He is well-versed and knowledgeable. Many lawyers say they handle immigration cases, but they quite often do not deliver. This is the lawyer you need. Cuado tu necesitas un abogado para immigracion, este es el abogado que tu tienes que llamar."
