Permanent Residence Approved
I liked that attorney Moises was straightforward and clear about the whole process and explained things in a way that was easy to understand. I only wish I would have been informed that my son, who petitioned for me, needed to be present at the adjustment interview. However, it didn't keep my applica...

Replied last August 20, 2015Thank you so much for your comment! It was strange that USCIS told you that your son needed to be present (USCIS usually does not require petitioners to attend the interview unless it was based on marriage). I am so happy your residence was approved!

Trustworthy and Knowledgeable
I needed to renew my DACA this year. Due to a misunderstanding with USCIS, there was an intent to deny my DACA status. I had 33 days to provide evidence that proved my continuous stay in the US. The President of my University referred me to Attorney Barraza and told me that he was known to be very di...

DACA application approved
I am very happy that my DACA application was approved with the help of Attorney Barraza. I was able to ask him any question that I had and get the answers I needed. I would recommend him as an attorney.
