Byron was heaven sent

In 2008, my brother was placed in INS detention and removal proceedings at Eloy Arizona for a 1986 conviction. The INS claimed that his felony conviction was an aggravated felony and that he was no longer eligibile to maintain his lawful permanent residency status. Byron Aldana investigated my brothe...r's case and discovered that my brother was not advised of the immigration consequences at the time he entered his plea. Thanks to Mr. Aldana's efforts, my brother's conviction was vacated and he was released from INS custody at Eloy detention center, and more importantly he was able to retain his lawful permanent residency.

Professional & Honest

Byron Aldana helped me remove my aggravated felony conviction, Assault with a Deadly weapon by filing a motion to withdraw my plea based on the court's failure to advise me of the immigration consequences. I was originally sentenced to 2 years state prison. Thanks to his efforts, I was able to enter... a new plea to a misdemeanor assault and a new sentence of 179 days county jail. As a result I am now able to retain my lawful permanent residency.

Great Service

The Law Office of Byron Aldana helped me remove my solicitation of prostitution conviction, a crime of moral turpitude, and changed it to simple trespass, a non-crime of moral turpitude. As a result I was able to retain my lawful permanent residency and I am now in the process of becoming a U.S. citi...zen.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
