Tenacious

Cuando fuimos a ver a Kevin estábamos al límite. Recuerdo que le dije a Kevin que solo queríamos lanzarnos al sistema y terminar de una vez. Kevin tomó nuestra mano y nos guió a través de la bestia que es el sistema de inmigración de los Estados Unidos. Nos ayudó con seis tarjetas verdes y una ciu...dadanía. Su tenacidad, comprensión de la ley y profesionalismo eran insuperables. When we went to see Kevin we were at our wits end. I remember I said to Kevin we just wanna throw ourselves at the system and get it over with. Kevin held our hand and guided us through the beast that is the US immigration system. He assisted us with six green cards and one citizenship. His tenacity, understanding of the law, and professionalism were second to none.

Thank you!

It’s been a long process but Kevin made it happened. He is the one who give me not only comfort but helped me go through the process of getting my citizenship application approved. If not for Kevin, I wouldn’t be where I am now. I am finally truly free. Thank you Kevin.

El milagro

Hola, mi nombre es Jaime. Para mí, es un honor y una gran felicidad el poder escribir y expresar mi experiencia como cliente de uno de los mejores abogados de inmigración de San Francisco. Pues en mi caso de petición de asilo político que ya un juez había negado a causa de un delito que había cometid...o el cual llevaba una felonía agravada la cual me hacia deportable inmediatamente. Pues sin darnos por vencidos se izó una apelación la cual era sobre la decisión del juez de inmigración por negarme mi asilo político. Pero mi caso no era nada fácil para mi abogado Kevin Crabtree. Pues la apelación que se hizo y fue enviada a la corte de Virginia también fue negada por lo delicado en mi caso. Pues yo tenía cargos criminales. Entonces no hubo otra opción que mandar otra apelación a los tribunales del noveno circuito en Nueva York. Fue ahí donde mi abogado Kevin Crabtree trabajo duro y profesionalmente con toda su experiencia para encontrar argumentos que demostraran antes los jueces del noveno circuito que habían errores de parte de los jueces de la corte de la apelaciones de Virginia en la decisión de mi caso. De toda esta experiencia en mi caso, de hoy en día fecha Enero 13 de 2020, yo Jaime puedo decir que estoy más que feliz porque mi abogado Kevin Crabtree hizo un excelente trabajo y más que un comentario, parece una carta. Pero cuatro años en un caso, no es una carta, es una historia. Esa es mi experiencia con mi abogado de inmigración. Mi caso lo gane este pasado 22 de Diciembre de 2019 y ese es mi pequeño comentario para las otras personas que tengan fe y confianza que si existe los milagros. Y él se llama Kevin Crabtree.
