My second chance

In 2007 after my criminal case I met mac when I was desperate looking for a way to keep my residence and stay with my kids, Mac started my case with open arms he always gave me the confidence that he will get my citizenship, in 2008 I was missing one paper for my citizenship. It took me some years b...ut , now after some tears and time, Mac and his team was able to proved that I am a USA citizen since I was 15. Mac was my angel his dedication hard work and knowledge gave me a second chance to be with my kids, there is not a date that I do not thank Mac for being just a great attorney and for having a big heart, he is the best and he will never give up on a client, because he treats you like a friend not just a client. Thank you Mac Nayeri from the bottom of my heart , may god bless you and your family.

Asylum from Mexico won at the Phoenix, Arizona Immgiration Court" 

I would like to thank Attorney Mac Nayeri and his assistant Veronica Villasenor, who, thanks to them, our case for asylum in the United States was approved it was a difficult process, the lawyer worked hard so we could win our case since my family and I fled Mexico's drug trafficking violence and so ...it was then when we asked for asylum here in the United States and Attorney Nayeri helped us and  thanks to him we are safe here, our lives are not in danger,  and we are also not at risk of  deportation because we ended up winning our case at the immigration court.  He truly is beyond compare, and  I recommend him to people who are living in fear in Mexico because of how dangerous it has gotten, that they can also turn to Attorney Nayeri to help you. He is the best I am grateful to him and his assistant Miss Veronica Villasenor for helping us win our asylum case.

Do not live fear Asylum from Mexico is possible

First I want to thank lawyer Attorney Mac Nayeri and his assistant Veronica Villasenor because they fought to win our case. In Mexico, we had a problem and it wasn’t safe for us, the lawyer helped us apply for Asylum and we won! I recommend Attorney Mac Nayeri and his assistant Veronica Villasenor s...ince they are very good people and help you present the best case. At the beginning when we arrived in this country, the United States we were scared of getting deported to Mexico but now as time has gone by, and because the lawyer won our case, we are not scared anymore. For these reasons I recommend Attorney Mac Nayeri and his assistant Veronica Villasenor since they will fight for your case as they did with mine and my family’s and also because they are good people and the lawyer will do what he can to win yours. And to the people out there who are in the same situation that we were in, do not fear and contact the lawyer to fight your case.

"I endorse this lawyer. I was first referred to Mac by a prominent Phoenix immigration lawyer to help a refugee who was going through criminal prosecution and needed immigration law advice on the immigration consequences of a plea deal. I returned to Mac to represent a relative in obtaining citizenship. We were thrilled to attend the citizenship ceremony. Mac does a great job and works hard. He is also amazingly fast, responsive, helpful and respectful. He genuinely cares about the people he helps and understands that immigration issues are vitally important to their lives and well being. I recommend him highly."
