My case testimony
I want to thank Attorney Moises and his team for their excellent service and professional work. I had a deportation order and hired the attorney to resolve my case.

Went with a more emphatic lawyer
I went to see him at his prior location on W Galena Blvd, and he seemed nice, but he mentioned religion several times...

Replied last September 7, 2023Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry that you had this experience, and we genuinely appreciate the opportunity to address your concerns. Our primary commitment is ensuring our clients have the most optimal chance of success by providing comprehensive, high-quality counsel. From experience, we’ve observed that brief, free consultations or quick answers can lead to misconceptions, leaving clients without the full context they need to make informed decisions. Such shortcuts can sometimes inadvertently cause more complications down the line. This is akin to expecting a doctor to make a diagnosis without thorough examination or tests. Through our detailed screening process, we've identified viable legalization pathways for numerous clients who had previously been advised elsewhere that they had no options. We're proud of these success stories and the depth of expertise we bring to each case. We do indeed endeavor to answer basic inquiries at no charge when contacted over the phone. However, for more intricate questions that demand detailed insight, a paid consultation becomes necessary. This ensures that clients receive accurate and comprehensive advice tailored to their unique situations. Once again, we're grateful for your feedback and always strive to improve our services to meet the diverse needs of all who seek our assistance. We are currently working on providing free content that can be accessed through our website, so feel free to check our website in the near future. We also have a national network of vetted pro bono organizations that we can refer you to, if that is what you are looking for. Just keep in mind that pro bono organizations are in high demand and often oversaturated. We wish you the best.
