The best immigration attorney in Houston

He was excellent! Handled my immigration case honestly and professionally. I recommend him above all the other immigration attorneys I talked to. He has complete understanding of the laws and was exceptional on my asylum. My whole family used him to do all our cases. Talk to him before you hire anyon...e else!

Good Experience

My experience with him was very good. He handled my case very successfully at a time when I had whatsoever no knowledge of lawyers or anything relating to it. I completely trusted him and it paid off.

Relationship: Co-worker

"With over 30 years of experience in immigration law, Jonathan is one of the few attorneys I would trust to represent my own family members. He is a zealous advocate for his clients and is as comfortable in the courtroom as he is in a USCIS interview or his own office. He is particularly skilled in asylum and removal proceedings and has a strong track record of winning difficult cases. He truly cares about his clients and their futures, and it shows in his hard work and loyal customers. I strongly recommend that anyone seeking an immigration lawyer contact Jonathan for a consultation."

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.
