Great defense in immigration court

I hired Atty. Luening to defend me in immigration court. I had an old criminal conviction that made me unable to get out on bond from immigration custody. Attorney Luening used his super knowledge of the criminal justice system to reopen and eventually get dismissed my old conviction. I could then... get out on bond from Immigration Court. I would not be here in the United States if Attorney Luening had not agreed to take my case. He was a little expensive, but he really worked a miracle!! Well worth it!

Mateo won my son's asylum case!!

My son came to the US by himself, fleeing danger in Central America. We went and saw Atty. Mateo to help because they picked my son up at the border. Atty. Mateo took the case, charged us a very reasonable fee, and began working immediately on the case. We had my son's interview in January and tod...ay we received news that the case had been won!! My family is very grateful to Atty. Mateo for all of his hard work and dedication to my son's case. He very skillfully and masterfully navigated the law and the procedure to get us perfect results!!

SCAM

Hired him for my immigration case. Almost granted, I would be able to say in the US. After paying him 2200 dollar he stoped answering my and my families calls, voicemassages, and texts. Missed various court dates and was late once. Was giving arguments to courts with laws that were out of date and ou...t of practice. Gave me hope but no results sat in an ICE detention facility for 10 moths and got deported. Stole my money freedom and time.

review

I went in to consult with matt regarding my immigration status,waited 45 min to talk to matt and gave him $1100 as an advance to the amount we agreed on,i called and tried to get a hold of him about 10 times with no luck,i left a couple voicemails and bunch of messages with the receptionist as well. ...My circumstances changed and his services weren't needed anymore so i asked for a refund but never got a return call or heard from anyone there. I have yet to file a complaint with the state bar association,. No work was done by matt regarding my case to be clear,all we did when i went in is talk about what i needed to bring to get started.
