Do not hire!

This lawyer is extremely unprofessional. He never returns phone calls. I hired Salvador Ortiz to help my husband with his immigration status. Mr. Ortiz filed the DACA for my husband but due to Ortiz's negligence( he failed to submit information requested my the USCIS) his case was denied. This has ...been a very frustrating experience for us. Please spare yourself the misery- hire another lawyer.

Inefficient , unprofessional, and a LIAR of a LAWYER!

I am writing this review as I am waiting to receive my file from Salvador Ortiz himself! I have an appointment at 12pm but his employee let me know that I have to wait for him till 12:30pm! If I could give them NO STARS believe me I would! My husband & I looked for Mr Ortiz help to get our Waiver 601... A to immigration. Reading from other reviews he uses the same charm on all his clients "Your case is already won it's super easy!" Gets you hyped up takes your money & than abandons your case in between the hands of his paralegals filled with empty promises to say the least! When we spoke to him he said the waiver would take 10 months with a monthly payment plan, since my husband & I had been saving for this we had the money & asked if we paid upfront how long would it take, he snapped his fingers & said I'll have it ready for you in 3 Days we said yeah for sure let's do this! It took them two months oh but sure enough they cashed my check that same day! My waiver got approved in Jan & we are in April & guess what my case is on STANDY BY! I call them every day "Oh yes Ms. Plata your case is next I will get to it as soon as I'm done with something for court Mr. Ortiz has to take care of!" Lies !! You call again for an update they don't answer & their mailbox is full I wonder why! His paralegal Gerardo even gave my husband his personal number when my husband texts him he doesn't answer his personal nor the office!! PLEASE RESEARCH your LAWYER before making any decisions! It was my mistake to RESEARCH MR ORTIZ till the end & read all the harm he's done to other people! DONT WASTE YOUR MONEY!! $5000.00 down the drain all because they see you in need of help!!

WORST LAWYER I'VE EVER ENCOUNTERED.

I had an immigration case with him for 3 years and he never helped me throughout those years. If i didn't go to him for help he would never help me, he never let me know or update me on my case. My case was about to close and he DID NOT HELP. He was not helpful whatsoever, if you're looking for an im...migration lawyer i recommend that you DON'T choose this man to help you. GO TO A DIFFERENT LAWYER BECAUSE THIS MAN IS NOT A GOOD LAWYER.
