Current Employment and Specialization
I am the proud owner of, and sole attorney at, the Law Office of Bruno Gitnacht, P.L.L.C. I founded my firm on one core concept: you. This is a full-service law firm committed to providing each and every client personalized and cost-effective legal representation exclusively in the areas of Immigration Law and Criminal Defense.
Professional and Educational Background
I am a member of the State Bar of Arizona and the American Immigration Lawyers Association. A native from Argentina, I am fluent both in English and Spanish. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice studies from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, in 2005, and my Juris Doctorate degree from the Sandra Day O’Connor College of Law at the Arizona State University in 2009. I was licensed in the State of Arizona to practice law in 2010.
As part of my ethical duty to remain up to date with the ever-changing laws, I do my due diligence in taking the appropriate annual Continuing Legal Education (“CLE”) courses as well as teach in them for other attorneys.
I take great pride in being actively involved with the community. I have worked closely with the Consulate General of Mexico in Phoenix, Chicanos Por La Causa, and other non-profit pro-immigrant organizations to help those in dire need of legal guidance and representation. In addition, I have hosted and presented in several free informational community forums throughout Arizona, discussing relevant and timely legal topics in immigration and criminal law areas. I have participated in numerous “know your rights” presentations. I strive to also make it a point to “pay it forward” by offering pro-bono or low-bono services in workshops or taking on a particular case for full representation.
I limit my practice solely to immigration law and criminal defense.
More about me...
As an non-United States native, I can empathize with many of the trials and tribulations that immigrants face in this country. I moved from Argentina to the United States of America at the age of 14. My background enables me to effectively understand and accommodate the needs of clients seeking immigration legal services.
In addition, I understand the complexities of the legal system and I am a true believer that everyone is entitled to effective legal representation when charged with a criminal offense and their life or liberty is threatened. This is why I have expanded my practice to provide criminal defense representation.
And, yes, I do have a life outside of work…
Granted, I work well over the typical 40-hour-per-week schedule, but I also makes it a priority to balance work with my personal needs: taking care of myself and enjoying life. On my spare time, I like to work out to keep my body and mind apt for work and life’s challenges. I am a long-time martial arts enthusiast who has a well-engrained Kung Fu and Kempo background. For leisure, I consider myself an avid pool/billiards player and a “movie junkie.” Also a family man, I always find the time to share life’s precious moments with my loved ones.
