Prompt and professional

I had an immigration related question that I sent to 3 different El Paso based attorneys. Mr. Jimenez is the only one who promptly and professionally replied to my inquiry.

The best!!!

We are very grateful we hired Mr. Jimenez to help my husband with his immigration case. My husband needed two waivers: I-212 and the I-601 in order for re-entry into the US, and we couldn't have done it without Mr. Jimenez. He was very helpful and guided us throughout the process. He was always quick... to respond and communicate with us. We trusted his advice and what needed to get done in order for waivers to get approved and he was right on!!! I am glad we took his advice and didn't pressure him because at the end of the day, we knew our case was in good hands! Thank you Gabriel Jimenez for your hard work and dedication!!! My husband/father of my kids can now reunite we us because of you.

Tells you what's best to do clearly.

I asked Gabriel what should I do to get a working holiday Visa and without using complicated words or long sentences he told me what's the best thing to gain it.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
