The Expert Savior

Recently Ms. Bertha Zuniga fought and won my asylum claim in the San Antonio Immigration court. Although my case was very complex since I was already in deportation proceedings but she presented my case in a very organized manner with plenty of supporting documents and experts declarations that convi...nced the judge to render decision in our favor. I had dealt with many lawyers before settling for Ms. Bertha to represent me and today I can proudly say I made the right decision by choosing her as my attorney. Her knowledge and professional expertise in immigration and asylum laws are incomparable among her peers and her ability to foresee the most probable outcome in the court of law is a gift. Another thing which I admire most about Ms. Bertha is the fact that she was more focused on winning rather than getting paid. I loved her dedication and sincerity with her clients. I would gladly suggest to acquire her expert services to anybody who are in trouble with immigration or are in court proceedings for deportation. She has been my savior and she can be yours as well. Thank you for the opportunities I now will have access to because of you.

Great job on immigration case

I was highly impressed with Mrs. Zuniga’s job. She was very well prepared for the case and prepared my friend for the case with possible questions. Her case was well presented and left no questions for the judge or district attorney. I would definitely recommend her to anyone who has an immigrati...on case pending. Thank you Mrs. Zuniga for your hard work and dedication.

Ms. Zúñiga will put her whole heart into your case

We had the great pleasure of hiring Ms.Zuñiga after my brother heard from other detainees and guards at the South Texas Detention Center that she was the BEST lawyer to represent anyone and that she will always win her cases. We originally had hired a younger attorney that promised it would be fa...irly easy to get a bond for my brother’s case. The younger lawyer, as it turned out be, had no experience in complicated cases and on my brother’s bond hearing, the judge denied his bond. At this point he had been detained for almost 2 months- His case was definitely complicated- He had 2 DWIs pending at that time and illegally overstated in the country, plus he had already being denied a bond. When we first hired Ms. Zúñiga, we knew right away that there was no comparison with the previous lawyer- Ms. Zúñiga’s personality, attention to detail and complete devotion and involvement to the case was obvious from day one - not to mention her outstanding credentials. She asked of every single piece of paperwork and information that would help fight his case once again. She will think outside of the box and be creative to aggressively fight your case to the end- She even thought of getting copies of my brother’s Uber receipts and tremendous amount of money spent on Uber to prove that his second DWI was a simple bad decision to drive on the day he was detained and not a common thing to do. Ms. Zúñiga put a packet together to defend my brother on his last opportunity when he was granted a bond hearing- We knew it was going to be tough and she had mentioned that - she never ever said it would be easy but that she will fight til the end to get him out. And sure enough, her devotion to the case and her huge talent of being creative and knowing what to say and how to lead with your case finally granted him a bond! She was once and for many years on the other side as an Immigration Judge, so trust me she knows exactly what moves the needle and how to defend your loved one. As family to a person being detained, you are in the hands of your attorney and you put all your faith that she will do the best to get your loved one out of detention. Ms. Zúñiga will answer to EVERY single email at any time, ANY DAY. Even when we visited my brother at the detention center, you will always see her there even on weekends! -that’s how devoted she is! Her work ethic and compassion to the case she’s fighting for is admirable. She WILL PUT HER WHOLE HEART and experience into your case to make sure you are reunited with your family. We have no words that could ever express how grateful we are for all that she did for our family. It is truly a nightmare to be in a situation like this- I promise. But she will always see the light at the end of the tunnel and represent your loved one like no one else would.

Bertha Zuniga

Replied last June 28, 2018

Another complicated asylum case from Afghanistan. This one had to go all the way up to the Board of Immigration Appeals because the Immigration Judge was determined to deny Dr. Fahim's case. Thankfully, justice was done and Dr. Fahim was able to be re-united with his wife and two children. I am thankful that he always had faith in the justice system and in his attorney.

Best Immigration Lawyer

My only regret was not hiring Mrs. Zuniga sooner! Our first lawyer gave us no hope and basically said it was a difficult case and little to do for him. Made us feel like every attorney would say the same. Kept taking our money and ran. Garza law firm would not answer our questions we had and needed t...o know about the case and paperwork. After 9 months when we fired the first attorney, Mrs. Zuniga fought hard with my husband's case and was persistent on his court date and in less than 2 weeks he was out. She is an amazing lawyer, persistent , knowledgeable, and determined. She let us know everything she was doing step by step with his case.
