Family law, immigration

He is a professional and compassionate attorney who listens clearly to his clients. He helped me greatly in all my cases and I will give him the highest recommendation ever. Please hire him and you won’t regret it.

Too Laidback & Perfunctory

After denial of my I-130, I had a deadline of Sept 10, 2020 to file an appeal. I paid and submitted all documents requested before the end of July 2020 but Areola submitted my appeal on April 19, 2021 (7 months after deadline). Whenever I called to let him know I did not get receipt from USCIS, he ju...st said 'I sent it'. Coupled with " a brief in support of the appeal" was not filed. Bottomline, after 4 years of delay & time waisted, DHS requests that the Board should dismiss the case
