A complex journey, a dedicated advocate
I've had the privilege of working with Ms. Trillos Ballerini for over six years, a period that spanned my H1B visa application and subsequent Green Card process. While her fees are on the higher end, her dedication and expertise have proven invaluable. Ms. Trillos Ballerini is a true professional ...

Not helpful
We went to see her for a consultation about an immigration situation. She was not really through with the options. She talked about them as we brought them up. That decreased my confidence in her. We asked her about EB3 options and she told us that’s a greencard route despite we gave her a clear goal...

Replied last October 29, 2024Please note we take your comment and posting very seriously. It is unfortunate that you feel that the initial consultation did not provide you with a solution to your immigration situation. Immigration and Nationality law in the United States is very complex. There is no one size fits all and we must be honest with you if we determine during the initial meeting that an individual does not qualify for an immigration benefit. It is of the utmost importance that we speak with you immediately. Please call our office tomorrow Wednesday October 30th (713)739-7272.
