Mauricio Torres Sanchez

I am an attorney at Gaertner Torres, PLLC. I was born in Cali, Colombia, and graduated from the School of Law at the National University of Colombia. I also earned a Master of Laws (L.L.M.) from the J. Reuben Clark Law School at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. During my time in law school, I spent considerable time volunteering at the Legal Aid Clinic Jaime Pardo Leal in Bogota, Colombia, assisting victims of domestic violence, and helped with employment and child custody cases.

Having gone through several consular interviews and visa applications myself, I understand the difficulties many immigrants face and it allows me to help others navigate through the U.S. immigration system. I devote my practice to family-based immigration, naturalization, motions to reopen and reconsider, appeals, waiver applications, nonimmigrant visas, and USCIS and consular interviews.
