Houston’s BEST

Immigration proceedings are never something that anyone wants to think about, but when there is a need, Mr. Galaviz and his team are the people to hire! From the initial online contact, Mr. Galaviz personally reached out to me and guided me through the possible outcomes. He gave me real expectations,... and not once made me feel uneasy or discouraged. He was in constant communication with my family and me throughout the entire process, which shows his level of care and love and passion for what he does. His level of knowledge is admirable and 100% recommended. He was able to beat a case that many said was impossible. I will be forever thankful for all his hard work and dedication to keep my family together in a country that is home to us all.

Thank you Abraham!!

Abraham did an Amazing job with my ex husband’s case as he was being detained in Texas for two months. My ex had a past issue that came up while he was flying back from Cabo with our daughter. My sister found Abraham on line sent an email and I was called immediately the following morning. Abraham w...ithout a doubt jumped on this case, was in communication with the family and informed us of updates as to the next steps are. He not once doubted that he could not win the case, he was very professional and clear as to what may happen but fought with us to make sure my ex husband comes home to our daughter and family. I am so grateful for having Abraham front line for us, my ex husband told me there were times when he wanted to give up but Abraham would remind him not to give up, he has a family to go home to. Thank you to Abraham my ex husband is back home as we celebrate his home coming we are thankful for having Abraham on our side and staying strong with us as he would were all fighting for his release on this side of the Bay Area. We truly appreciate Abraham!

Great attorney and firm!

My oath ceremony for US citizenship is tomorrow but I would not have gotten this far if it wasn’t for Mr. Galaviz and his law firm’s team. They are kind, patient and will listen to your concern about your case with respect. My case was very difficult but with the help of Mr. Galaviz and his team we w...ere able to beat the case. I highly recommend anyone who needs immigration relieve or advice to his firm and last but not least I want to say thanks to Mr. Galaviz and his team for all the hard work they put in to my case and I truly appreciate it.

Great Attorney!!

My husband and I were coming back from vacation in Mexico when he was detained at the airport. He is a permanent resident but had a past charge from a couple years ago that was solved with local authorities but not with immigration. We didn't understand at the time that if you are a green card holde...r and have an arrest, you have to resolve it with both local authorities AND immigration. I reached out to several other attorneys but I didn't receive the necessary attention needed to get my husband out as soon as possible. Mr. Galaviz was very attentive and personable. He answered all my questions and was honest with me that it wouldn't be easy but there was a way. He made the whole process easy to understand and does require a lot of paperwork but everything he asked for was helpful in winning my husband's case. Mr. Galaviz gave me the hope I lacked at times and thanks to all his hard work and dedication my husband is now home with us. I would highly recommend this attorney to all those in need.
