Bernardo Merino

When my husband and I met with Bernardo, we were in a very difficult situation and constantly on an emotional rollercoaster. We had been dealing with the Immigration Court system for 5 1/2 years and my husband had already signed a voluntary deportation, because that had been the only choice our curre...nt lawyer had given us. Bernardo was very thorough with his interview and in digging into my husbands past, was able to give us a fighting chance. A chance no other attorney had given us. After an appeal, two separate court dates, and many research hours, on Bernardo and his assistants part , my husband was able to obtain his permanent residency. We had great confidence in his representation and were always thoroughly informed of all the possible outcomes. We wish Bernardo had been our first choice, then we might have avoided all those lost years of living in uncertainty and constant fear that our loved could be ripped from our side.
