Good lawyer handle deportation very well!!!

My mom had hired Kim Trupiano to represent me in removal proceedings. Whenever my parents needed Kim advice on my case, Kim returned the calls and made herself available as much as she could. In the first meeting with my parents Kimberly discussed the case defense strategy in detail. The defense stra...tegies were very impressive to my parents and me; they believed Kim will win the immigration deportation case. Thanks to her hard work, Kim was successful in cancel the deportation proceedings against me. Currently, Kim Trupiano is helping me with some other criminal charges to try to avoid more immigration consequences that would cause me to be deported. I am very happy to recommend attorney Kim Trupiano for whoever needs an experienced criminal and immigration attorney. Kimberly has experience in both immigration and criminal defense fields; that is what makes it so she can be so successful in immigration cases with criminal history problems.

Thank you Kim!

I hired Trupiano Law to file an application to remove the condition on my green card. I am very pleased with the case outcome. The application had been submitted with sufficient evidence in the first place. No Request For Evidence from USCIS. Kim also submitted her legal argument to convince USCIS to... approve my case. I’m happy with Kim worked hard on my case and finally I received the new green card good for 10 years.

It is a...ttorneys and staff like you that really make a difference.

Thanks Kim so much!

“Today Fernando's "Green Card" came in the mail!!!!!! Five years ago we sat in your office, and discussed a complicated case involving so many things, we were so scared and unsure of the outcome. The one thing we had decided is that we would take a chance on a female rookie attorney who had passed... the bar exam a year before. But, the most important thing was she said that she could get Fernando's paperwork finalized. There were times when we never thought this day would come, and through the shed of tears, and all of our up and downs our attorney's game plan paid off. So much has changed in this last five years, and as Fernando said a week ago this is finally ending the chapter in this portion of our book. Everything is more then we could have imagined and so unbelievable, we feel very blessed, thanks to you, and your paralegals who have worked hard for all of this to happen. We don't even know if thank you is enough or even the correct words to use considering how much work and how many tears have been shed in the last 14+ years to get to this moment. So, now that the outcome is good in every way possible, and that we can make a better future for our family, we are sad to tell you that we will no longer need your services but will recommend you highly to anyone who needs a attorney that can do the job. Thanks again KIM!!!!! thank you for all your work we are so happy....

Experienced immigration lawyer!

I feel relieved today. It was a long immigration journey I have been going through and finally it was over with the GREAT victory. I hired Kimberly Trupiano representing me in applying for asylum and we got approval from the immigration judge. The Department of Homeland Security attorney appealed to... the Board of Immigration Appeals, but Kimberly was also able to win. How amazing!!!! I remained an asylee for a while and USCIS has granted me green card few days ago. Eventually I will be eligible to apply for US citizenship. Thanks Kim and Thanks God! It is no doubt Kimberly is very good handling the toughest immigration cases. She is very knowledgeable, aggressive and has a lot of experience practicing immigration law. She tried her best to get the most positive outcome for my case. I highly recommend Kim for whoever needs a good lawyer. You will be in a good hand. Kim also discounted the legal fees a lot to help me out. She offered me small monthly payments to pay off the case. She really helped me out in the most difficult situation in my life.
