About Jessica
Biography
Our firm serves clients in many states and throughout the world. Our original office is still in Fresno, California in the historic downtown area close to the courts and immigration agencies. We also maintain offices in San Francisco, Oakland and Los Angeles, California. We have the capacity to meet with and handle cases in other jurisdictions such as New York, Chicago, Denver, Phoenix and Boston.
Due to her practice of 18 years and strong record of success in handling cases, Jessica regularly travels to jurisdictions throughout the United States to assist clients with their immigration needs. Since our firm is global, we can assist with visa and entry requirements to global work and travel destinations such as Canada, the United Kingdom and other countries throughout the world.
Citizenship and nationality in the modern world are fluid concepts. We seek to constantly evolve our practice to meet the needs of a changing world where families and businesses alike are often part of an increasingly interconnected world.
We as a firm pride ourselves in assisting people from all countries of origin, walks of life, language groups and careers. The community surrounding our office in Fresno, California is located blocks away from the area where Jessica’s paternal grandparents made their home after arriving in the United States as refugees following the Armenian Genocide.
Immigration is professional to us but it is also personal. We hope to assist you and your family or business in all areas of immigration law.
We sincerely wish you the best in your immigration process and would appreciate the ability to develop a strong relationship with you.

DO NOT HIRE!!
Absolutely the worst mistake I could have made. Her staff never return phone calls, they make excuses for why she can't meet with the client and after you sign the contract she steals your money and you never see her again, only a 2 cent legal assistant to give you "advice" will answer your questions...
Jessica Smith Bobadilla
Replied last October 28, 2016I am sorry you had an experience with our firm that seems to be less than desirable. I would have to dispute that I have no evidence of legal knowledge as I was a professor, director of a recognized immigration non-profit and have a very high rate of success with our cases.. If you are an actual client I would be happy to meet with you and see what your specific concerns are regarding your legal issue. Please give us the opportunity for a free consultation.
Jessica Smith Bobadilla's Lawyer Endorsements
"I endorse this lawyer. Jessica is a great person and an excellent attorney. She has a lot of experience and is very trustworthy. I'd have no hesitation to call her and ask her for advice."
"I cannot endorse this lawyer enough! Jessica is a living, breathing immigration encyclopedia combined with a passion for helping those that cannot help themselves. She has won at the trial level, the appeals level and even in several (not just one) Federal Circuit Courts of Appeal. Very few lawyers can say this. If there is an answer to your immigration or asylum question, she will find it."
"Jessica is a conscientious attorney, who is very knowledgeable and experienced. I have referred her clients and each and every one of them had nothing but the best to say about Jessica; and all of them obtained excellent results. I would recommend Jessica to others, without hesitation."
"I have known Jessica for over ten years. Jessica cares about her clients, has integrity, while having the ability to come up with creative solutions for her clients. She frequently speaks about immigration issues and has extensive removal experience. Her legal acumen is illustrated by the fact that she is currently an immigration professor at a University."
