Immigration case

pero su objetivo es sacar provecho del temor para obtener el beneficio de sacar más provecho del cliente . Efectivamente, el Sr. Derek, el asistente paralegal, exhibe un comportamiento altamente irrespetuoso y carece de empatía. Al intentar ejercer mis derechos y solicitar que al menos intente desemp...eñar su labor de manera adecuada en la ultima audiencia el Sr. Derek simplemente me pidió que saliera de su a la oficina. En mi opinión, quienes lean esto con respeto y honestidad deberían tener en cuenta que no deben dejarse engañar por quienes buscan aprovecharse de su dinero y de su miedo a la deportación. Aunque no todos lo hacen, en casos de mi miembro de familia esto ha conducido a la emisión de una orden de deportación. Además, en el caso de mi hermana, se le negó la solicitud de permiso de trabajo al no cumplir con los requisitos establecidos. Sin embargo, cuando ella los cumplió, pudo obtener la Seguridad Social y el permiso de trabajo. Es una completa desilusión y frustración toda esta situación.

Mi Fe en Dios es grande y la esperanza en la abogada Andrea sigue aqui a pesar de los tantos años de espera

Dejare las 5 estrellas hasta el momento en que tenga respuesta de la abogada Andrea, mi caso tiene varios años, mi parte en este tiempo es lo que me ha costado como madre soltera saliendo de traumas poder pagar los mas de 8,000 dolares que me costó contratar sus servicios para un caso federal en la ...corte frente a un juez de inmigración.. y el resto de los años es por que he tenido muchisimos asistentes llevando mi caso por lo que no veo respuesta hasta que llamo y con mucha suerte me regresan la llamada con la sorpresa de que ya tengo oootro nuevo asistente.. lo mas estresante es que al comienzo tenia que enviar documentos a cada uno de ellos, hasta que me vi en la nevesidad de renegar y decirles que no volveria a enviar documentación que ya deberian tener en los files de mi caso en su buffet... envío documentos y nunca se si los recibieron o no, si me falta algo por llenar o enviar porque nunca se comunican, jamas me llega información si alguna ley altera mi caso o no... solo me dicen que mi corte es en enero del 2026, hace como 2 años ya envie un cuestionario o solicitud para una aplicación que el juez me pidio llenar,mi nueva asistente no sabe nada y el encargado de mi caso no a revisado si se envio o no ese cuestionario o si falto algo mas... y si es enserio! Estoy molesta y preocupada porque he gastado lo que no tengo, mi permiso de trabajo esta vencido, pirque segun (uno de mis asistentes) me dijo que no llenaramos la renovacion de mi permiso y esperáramos a llenar la aplicación de vawa y que seria mas rapido arreglar mi situación legal en el pais, moralmente, económicamente y legalmente estoy ahora en el limbo sin saber nada de mi caso. Mis hijos siendo hijos de un ciudadano americano no tienen estatus legal por lo que mas me urge arreglar mi situacion y poder yo ayudarles pues son lo único que tienen! Mi fe en Dios es muy grande ! Y aun esta puesta una parte de mi esperanza en Andrea que se que es una buena abogada

STAY AWAY

Josia Jose and the staff at Manuel Diaz Law Firm are terrible attorneys who are nothing less than scam artists. They will call you for money but will not accept or return a phone call about your case. Emails go unanswered and there is no personal responsibility. Their ineptitude has cost me thousa...nds of dollars and a year of heartache. After months of them not representing me, they still refuse to give me my case file.

Stay away from this firm

Worst experience in my life. For a simple custody modification, ended up losing my child custody! 3 hearings and they don't prepared the case. I gave them all the files and the witness list. Nothing! They don't present any of the witnesses as counselors, teacher, or family doctors. Then after losing ...my son's custody, they said: Well, it is only temporary. You can request in a few years. Of course, all this cost me around $18,000, and even when there was no more custody case and I canceled their services. They still keep charging fees like "review your case".

Wonderful, attentive and caring!

In 2018 I had a legal problem which left me desperate and completely terrified. I did not know what to do or how to even begin to seek help. I was so overwhelmed! A friend of mine referred me to Manuel Diaz, and right away I called. Manuel Díaz not only saw me immediately, but he sat patiently and li...stened to everything that I had to say. He gave me great advice and from there, his assigned lawyer, Jeffery Morrow handled my case with excellent professionalism, kindness and made me feel like I was being listened to, not just another client to rush through. I was able to make a payment plan, and all of the people in the office from the receptionists to the accounts payables were very sweet and helpful. His staff is also bilingual, so it was easy to have Spanish speaking help, which is my preferred language. Without a doubt, I highly recommend the Law Firm of Manuel Diaz!!! En el 2018 tuve un problema legal que me dejó desesperada y completamente aterrada. No supe que hacer ni siquiera como empezar a buscar ayuda. Me sentía totalmente agobiada! Un amigo me refirió a Manuel Díaz, y llamé enseguida. Manuel Díaz, no sólo me vio de inmediato, si no que se sentó y con paciencia escucho todo lo que yo tenía que decir. Me dio excelentes consejos, y de ahí, mi abogado asignado, Jeffery Morrow, manejó mi caso con un excelente profesionalismo y bondad, y me hizo sentir como que realmente me estaba escuchando, no como si fuese otro cliente cualquiera que tenía que apurar. Pude realizar un plan de pagos, y todo el personal de la oficina, desde las recepcionistas, hasta los del departamento de contabilidad fueron muy dulces y serviciales. Su personal, además es bilingüe, así que es muy fácil encontrar asistencia en español, ya que es mi idioma predilecto. Sin duda alguna, definitivamente recomiendo al abogado Manuel Díaz!!!
