Petition for father

I'm very glad I was recommended to Raul. He help me with my fathers petition. He would explain everything with our case as many times as we needed he is very well knowledge of what he is doing. He also has translators that work in his office to help if you don't understand English. I'm extremely happ...y that everything was very easy to follow and successful. I would definitely recommend him to anyone else who needs to file a petition. His attitude is great as well.

Professional legal services with care

Raul helped me with my naturalization process. He was very experienced and knowledgeable about the process. He provided me with professional, efficient, and thoughtful support from beginning to end. During my first consultation with him, he explained clearly what I need to prepare and sent me a nice ...follow up email with very specific instruction. He always answered my questions through email or phone promptly and nicely so that I didn’t have to worry anything about the process. Thanks to him, I was able to get my U.S. citizenship within few months. I am very happy that I was able to find Raul. I would recommend him to anyone who needs help for naturalization/immigration process.

Deportation Case

I was going through deportation and Raul was referred to me by a friend that he had help successfully within the same case. I hear great things about Raul and so contacted him for help. He had guided me thoroughly throughout the 3 years of court battling for my stay here in the U.S. Not only was he p...atience but he was understanding for the hardship that I've encounter since the case. He put out the extra time and effort to help me. I would have to say my case was a rare. At times I've given up on myself because of the many court fails. After many years of battling it finally came to an end and I was granted my green card. I cannot describe how thankful I am to have found an attorney like Raul Armando Ray. Amazing job and excellent!!!
