Call this lawyer firm was one of my best decisions I have ever made!

If you are looking for qualified and professional representation - Law Firm of Matt Trevena will be your best choice! He helped my husband to become a permanent resident in less than a year. My husband was in US with his F1-Student Visa. Each of his staff members are professionals and were really h...elpful. But, I would highly recommend to work with Janette Flores. As so I know, she has been working with the company for many years and I could not thank her enough for all the work she has done for our family. She always knew the answer on each question I had. She was always polite and patient every time I called (and I called her a lot, because was very nervous about our case). You can trust this people!

Great Man Who Cares

Words will fall sort for the gratitude, kindness and immeasurable respect I have for this law firm. At the beginning my in-laws wanted to help me become a permanent resident. My sister in-law stated to me “If you feel this is not the lawyer for you, we can try another. “ As soon as we spoke to Mr.... Trevena, and disclosed everything, we knew he was the best for us. He is extremely kind with a caring heart that has moral compass that points north. We had a large issue that could have ended it all. Mr. Trevena did not accept what happened and he along with his wonderful staff made sure that this issue would not be tolerated. The day of the interview arrived and I was nervous as one could be. Mr. Trevena would continue to tell me to breathe. My family who has taken me in as one of their own (in-laws) was present on that day for support. Mr. Trevena informed us not long after I was approved to become a permanent resident. Time passed and I wanted become more than a permanent resident, I desired to become a U.S citizen. My wife and I did not even hesitate; we wanted Mr. Trevena by our side. Everyone from the law firm was just amazed and remembered us. Mr. Trevena was overwhelmed on how my wife was looking. She had gotten a kidney transplant after I became a permanent resident. Mr. Trevena, (again so kind and honest) played catch up on how our lives have been. Mr. Trevena was delighted for us and took me on again as a client. We did everything that he asked for us to do, getting pictures taken and filling out some paperwork. Mr. Trevena still had our file and we visited him again to go over everything. He gave us me homework and to learn U.S history. Mr. Trevena knew I enjoyed reading and learning. The interview date was set and we paid one more visit to the law firm. Everyone in this law firm is so kind and professional. Mr. Trevena was by my side during the naturalization Interview, while my family was waiting in the lobby. I walked out and passed, but it still had to wait for a final approval. We got it the final approval and around 2 month later I took the oath and became a citizen of the United States of America. My whole family was at the Naturalization Oath Ceremony. This is one of the biggest days in my life. My family and I want to thank again The Law Firm of Matt Trevena for everything they did and then some. If it’s just to become a permanent resident, citizen or any immigration related matters, a good lawyer such as The Law Firm of Matt Trevena, comes with peace of mind knowing you are in good hands. Immigration is a life changing matter with amount of paperwork and know-how. It is wise to invest to obtain an attorney that knows all these matters and have you prepared. Highly recommend The Law Firm of Matt Trevena

Recommendation

Mr. Treven is a very professional lawyer. Before I got in touch with him, nobody gave me the right support to get my student visa. Every time I needed to talk to him he was always available and ready to give me the best suggestions. He helped me to get my student visa, and I got it. When I arrived in... Austin and I met him and his staff, they were very kind with me. It is a pleasure to give Mr. Trevena my recommendation.

EXCELENT ATTORNEY, VERY PROFESSIONAL STAFF!

Mr.Trevena and staff are awesome professionals. I brought my fiancée to the U.S. and they helped us so much. We are now married and not worrying about permanent residency anymore, which was successfully granted. Mr. Trevena and his assistant Ms. Janette Flores are very friendly, knowledgeable, and pr...ofessional. I will recommend The Law Firm of Matt Trevena to anyone. They know exactly what to do, and the right steps to take. Thank you so much for making our dream come true!

VERY PROFESSIONAL AND THOROUGH LAW FIRM. FRIENDLY AND KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I highly recommend The Law Firm of Matt Trevena. Mr. Trevena and his staff - especially Ms. Janette Flores - are very professional and friendly, and took care of my entire process carefully. After years struggling away from my fiancée, we contacted Mr. Trevena and we could not have made a better cho...ice. Every step of the process was approved, and today I am back to the U.S. I was recently granted my permanent resident status, and most important am happily married. Thank you so much Mr. Trevena and staff!
