Knowledgeable, honest, professional, y se habla español

Over the past several years Ms. Morton has earned an outstanding reputation as a talented and highly professional immigration attorney, which is why my husband and I went to her for assistance through the Consular Process. Working with her was a pleasure - during the past year we were gathering docum...ents (visa application, financial documents, supporting documents) and even though we live overseas, Ms. Morton made the process incredibly clear and straightforward. We held meetings over Skype, gathered original documents, shared files electronically, and despite the distance were able to easily communicate with her office when we wanted to request a call or meeting. For example, just prior to my husband's consular interview we scheduled a final Skype call to go over all the last details, ensure my husband's last minute nerves were calmed, and that we had everything in order. Ms. Morton's ability to speak both English (for me) and Spanish (for my husband) was incredibly helpful and comforting. She answered all of our questions and my husband was able to walk into his consular interview with confidence knowing that every document was in order and with a pretty good idea of what to expect. Ms. Morton made sure we were prepared for the most difficult of scenarios and in the end we were so prepared that the process felt like a breeze. Her assistance has been a blessing for our family and we absolutely recommend her services to anyone in need of immigration legal assistance.

BEST lawyer we've ever came across!

I will start off by saying Margarita is VERY efficient, organized, detailed and a very thorough lawyer. She will view your case and tell you from the start if we have a good case to proceed. If not, she will not waste your time and money. She personally returns phone calls and emails herself, which i... liked. We will forever be Thankful for all her hard work and dedication in my husband's case. He is now a Permanent resident! I highly recommend her to everybody. I can go on and on about Margarita but I will keep it at this. Thank you Margarita!!
