Knowledgeable Attorney and Great Team!

If you are looking for an experienced, honest, knowledgeable attorney, contact Milla and Associates! Last year my wife and I were looking to adjust our status through a family member. After hours of research and two failed consultations, it seemed like adjusting our status would not be possible at... the moment. Then we met Robert. During the initial consultation, Robert looked at the large amount of documents we took with us that pertained to our case and asked us questions. He was able to quickly tell us what could be done with our cases. After questioning him for a while, it was clear that Robert is a honest, knowledgable, professional attorney. He gave us a price for his services which was very reasonable considering the amount of time and work that goes into these cases. The whole green card process was long and there were many documents that had to be gathered and deadlines that had to be met. Thankfully we had the help of Robert and Eyzuri (paralegal). Whenever we had a question, we would contact Eyzuri and she would promptly respond with a thorough answer. If the answer was complex, Robert would contact us and explain the answer to us and clear up any follow up questions. When the time for an interview came, Robert made sure that we were thoroughly prepared. He told us what the procedure would be and answered all of our questions so we wouldn't be nervous. On the day of, Robert came prepared and the interview went smoothly. Two weeks later we received our green card. Last week, my wife and I returned from traveling to our home country of Mexico - something we hadn't done for more than twenty years. We are forever grateful for how easy Robert and his team made this process for our family. The process was long and stressful, but we had their full support the whole time. If you are looking for an immigration attorney, we strongly recommend Robert and his team. Thank you Robert and Eyzuri!!

Mr.

We want to express our gratitude to Robert Milla for helping in my wife's immigration case. This case was closed with best results for her. The case was not easy and other lawyers we worked on this case before Robert, gave us very low chanses to win. That was a reason to change a lawyer. Even after f...irst consultation with Robert there was a firm hope for a positive resolving our case. Robert started working with us and did his best to reach best result, from possible one. We highly recommend Robert Milla, as he is the best lawyer we ever met. Also Robert is very nice person and it was so pleasant and easy to work with him. Thank you Robert!

Straight to the point

When we first found Mr. Milla on avvo, we were frustrated with the whole immigration process. He was responsive to our questions and had a plan of action which we needed. He seems knowledgeable about the process including common errors that can be made. We will use him again with any immigration need...s.

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
