Immigration

Mr. Millan is an excellent lawyer. We came to him with my husband's immigration situation and he was able to take my husband and I through the entire process. He answered any questions we had. In our visits to his office, he was always there and sat with us to explain what was to come. He never left ...our case unattended. With his help and his everyday effort towards helping my family stay together, my husband got his residency in the U.S. And for that, we truly thank Mr. Millan.

Awesome lawyer!

I originally sought Mr. Millan upon recommendation from a close friend. It was a difficult time in my life, but from the initial meeting with Mr. Millan he assured me everything was going to be okay. I was confident in him and his work. Mr. Millan initially helped me with my residency. Six years late...r, he helped with my citizenship. I noticed it was taking longer than usual for the next step of the process to happen. A quick phone call was all it took. Mr Millan proceeded in the best and quickest way to get the process going. He is extremely dedicated and prepares extensively: from keeping me updated, reviewing all documents, making sure I was prepared for the interview, to attending it with me! I am extremely satisfied with the friendly and dedicated service I received from Mr. Millan and his associates. I strongly recommend Mr. Millan to anyone who needs the services of an excellent immigration lawyer.

More than GRATEFUL!!!!!

I am more than thankful with Mr. Felipe Millan and staff for assisting my husband and I with our immigration case. It is a fact that in the immigration system you find Immigration Attorney's in every corner you drive nevertheless it is also known that many are charlatans only over promising, taking a...dvantage and emptying your pockets with lies. I thank God for our wisdom and also the tools out there like this one to actually research and not be mislead. Not only was he recommended to me by someone from church but as well as someone in our BNI (Business Network International) meeting. They are many outstanding attributes I could say regarding Mr. Millan yet If I could highlight some they would be: HONESTY, TRANSPARENCY, INTEGRITY, PROFESSIONALISM, ETHICAL, RESPECTFUL & outmost passionate about what he does, and what he does he does with kindness and compassionate heart for keeping families together. I am very very thankful because he was an instrument of God that assisted us into keeping our family together and after a very long journey my husband was able to obtained his Residency.

Aida Hernandez - Asylum Applicant

I first hired Mr. Felipe Millan after being detained at the International Port of Entry bridge of the Americas in El Paso, TX, for seeking Political Asylum and taken to the ICE Detention Center for being a victim of crime in my own country. Since Mr. Millan's first visit to the detention center for ...my first interview, I noticed his interest in helping me get out of the situation I was in. After several denials of release from the detention center, Mr. Millan was able to convince the Immigration Judge to release me. It has been seven years since my release and my biggest fear was to go back to my country, however Mr. Millan has always found a way to help me stay in the U.S. He processed my Employment Authorization, which was first denied but after Mr. Millan's persistence, I finally received approval to work in the United Stated. Being a single mother of three U.S. Citizens, it is very important for me to be employed. Mr. Millan recently requested Prosecutorial Discretion on my case, and on July 30th, 2015 Administrative Closure was granted. I could not be happier, and thankful for Mr. Millan. Felipe D.J. Millan is by far the best Immigration Lawyer there is. Not only is he an amazing Attorney but also a caring human being who takes his client's cases very seriously and to a personal level, which makes me as a client feel safe and confident that whatever decision he takes for me would definitively be the best one for me and my family.
