Dream Achiever

Maria and her whole staff have been amazing. I sought her help so I could apply for Adjustment of Status about 3 years about, she was kind, knowledge, understanding and simply a nice person. We didn't actually decide to go through with the process since I was not emotionally ready for what was about ...to come. Finally a year ago we decided to pull the plug and hired her to assist my husband and I. Every meeting we had she always gave me the facts straight but with an air of positivity that this kind of situations should have. Long story short, she kindly and professionally held our hands throughout the whole process and long behold our goal was achieved. We had gone to different lawyers before her and they always made me feel like they only care about how much money they could get our of me and made our case seem like Mission Impossible. We could not have achieved our goal without her. It should also be noted that the whole staff was always nice, professional. From the receptionist to Ashly her legal aid on our case they always made us feel at ease. I would definitely recommend her to anyone that needs an immigration lawyer, and I will for sure come asking for help again 3 years from now when I can apply for my citizenship!

the go to immigration lawyer in DFW!

Maria has helped me with 2 applications. The first time I met her was to change my status to a U visa. Since our first meeting she was very empathetic and understanding of my options. She answered all my questions and the process went smoothly. This past year I went to her again to handle my green c...ard application. Again Maria and her staff did not disappoint. They were helpful, attentive, kind and were always available to answer my questions. If you are looking for someone who is knowledgeable, professional and kind go to Maria!!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • 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.
