Immigration law expert!

Mr. Lacome was incredibly knowledgeable about my complex visa process- EAD/adjustment of status/advanced parole. He gave me very good recommendations and helped to expedite my work authorization. He went above and beyond expectation, and with his assistance I was able to renew my EAD months before ...the regular processing times.

Success!

I hired Mr. Lacome to help my husband back to the U.S. He had been deported and had lived in Tijuana for three years. During that time I consulted three other lawyers about this case. None of them gave me any hope or were too expensive. I met with Joseph and within a short period of time, he had a... solution, a thorough explanation, a timeline of how events would unfold and a price that I felt was fair. What most impressed me was that Mr. Lacome's solution to my husband's immigration problem had not even been suggested by other lawyers in any other consultations I had. Now he will on his way back to the U.S. to be reunited with his family. My husband and I are so grateful for the work Mr. Lacome did on this case.

He got us the results we wanted

Thanks to Joseph, my mother-in-law is now a citizen. He gave us a reasonable price, was always available to take our calls, and produced a very professional correspondence letter justifying our case.

Jack of all trades

Joseph was efficient and knowledgeable helping me on several different occasions. He was consist to get back with me with important information in a timely manner. Another practice of law he demostrated was the start up of my own business. In no time I had my tax id and doors were open f...or business. With his reasonable prices and extensive knowledge of law I would recommend him to anyone .
