Great Immigration Lawyer

Frances Valdez has helped my entire family with our immigration process. Since our very first consultation, Frances clearly demonstrated her knowledge and experience in this field. She was able to explain the legal framework in a clear and honest language. She then explained all options available wit...h the pros & cons of each one. She quickly answered all of my questions through the process. Her staff was just as impressive. They were able to quickly communicate to me any inquiries or questions they had regarding our cases. She has helped my family with DACA extensions, work permits, residency approvals, and advanced parole. To simply put it, I send anyone with an immigration need to Ms. Valdez. No case is too big or too small for her and her staff, and her work ethic and immigration knowledge is unmatched.
