Excellent and smooth process

Atty. Dean was able to facilitate hassle-free process of my immigration application. My employer introduced me to Atty. Dean and able to instruct me completely and timely with the immigration process. He was there to guide me each and every step and able to clarify and address completely with my con...cerns. I am very satisfied with the professional and caring approach that he did. I highly recommend his legal services.

Reliable, Excellent Lawyer

Atty Gerardo Dean was recommended to me by a friend. My tourist visa already expired,Im about to become an illegal and my only resort was to go back to my country and process my immigration there. After a phone consultation, I realized that it is wise to retain him as my lawyer. He responded right a...way and let me know what he could do. He helped me find a sponsor and a job for me. He applied for my visa and I am greatly satisfied because it only took 1 year and four months for me to get my greencard from the first day of our consultation. Proffesional, efficient, knowledgeable and reliable. I appreciate everything that he has done for me. The rapport and guidance was outstanding at all times, prompt, timely and open for calls and quick updates and worked through all of the questions and issues regarding my case. He went above and beyond and did everything he could to ensure a great outcome. I highly recommend Atty. Gerardo Dean for his excellent job Please do not hesitate to contact him in any legal matters you might need in the future.

Services of Atty Gerardo Lara Dean

I availed of Atty Dean's services for a couple of times, Visitor's Visa Extension, Working Visa, Renewal of Working Visa and latest is Immigrant Visa, they were all approved. The Immigrant Visa is a bit difficult, it requires my petitioner to get approval for alien worker. It was not easy because i...t needs justification that there is no available person in US to fill up the job offered to me. Atty Dean help me a lot. Big thanks Atty Dean!

We were lucky to know Atty Dean. He helped me and my husband get our green cards. I had a complicated situation with my previous employer, but he managed to get us through it. Forever thankful to him.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
