Steven Tanijo

When my boyfriend (now husband) was facing possible deportation, Steven Tanijo was the one who prevented that from happening. I was recommended to Steve Tanijo by a different law firm who didn't think they could help us in our case; however, Steve was more than willing to take us on as clients. I s...pent hours on the phone with Steve explaining to him the details of my husband's illegal status in this country. He was extremely determined to gather all of the information necessary in order to avoid deportation. He asked me questions that none of the other attorney's I had spoken to previously had asked me. I felt he took his time with learning all of the details of our situation, which led him to discover certain key points in our case that would ultimately save us. I knew right away that Steven Tanijo was the right attorney for us and that everything was going to be okay. I was living in Miami at the time while my husband was being held in an immigration detention center in Tacoma, WA. I had to fly to Washington to meet with Steve and he was right there to greet me as soon as my flight landed. This was an extremely difficult time for me, yet his presence and sympathy towards our situation really made me feel like I was not alone in this. Through all of the drama, Steve always remained very calm, professional, well-informed and knowledgeable. He seems very passionate about the people that he is helping and the lives he's making a difference in. When I returned back to Miami and was awaiting my husband's bond hearing, Steve was there for me every step of the way. He was always readily available to me via email or through his answering service anytime I had a little question about anything. He would always include me in any minor changes that happened in the case, and he even performed our marriage ceremony the day before my husband's bond hearing. He told us that my husband would be released the same day as the hearing and he was completely right. Since he did such an amazing job at the bond hearing, we hired Steve again to help us with the residency which also went very smoothly. I have nothing but positive feedback for Steven Tanijo. He is clearly great at what he does and I would highly recommend him to anyone else who may find themselves in a situation similar to ours. Thanks again for everything, Steve!

I first sought out the legal assistance of Steve Tanijo in 2012 and finally had success of obtaining residency for my spouse in 2015. Despite Steve’s hard work it took 3 years for my husband to adjust his status due to difficulty with serious legal charges he was facing and an overload of cases at th...e U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Steve offers affordable costs for the exceptional legal services he provides. He offers a one- time fee with payment options available which is really convenient. He does not charge for phone calls or additional questions unlike other attorneys. He provides guidance and attends necessary appointments. He is available to reach on his personal cell phone, by email, and he even drove an hour to our home to obtain important documents. He is transparent and upfront with the case information and client. From the beginning he advises if it was probable for the client to adjust their status successfully and the obstacles that may arise.

I can wholeheartedly tell you that Steve is by far the most honest, friendly, and up-front lawyer. We received immediate and professional attention when we contacted him. Meeting him was a huge blessing and relief for me and my partner. From our first meeting with Steve, we knew we were in good hands.... He handled our issues with professionalism, directness, and explained everything very clearly. We would not go anywhere else for legal immigration counsel. All this year, we engaged his service even for minor immigration issues because we know he cares and very efficient We highly recommend Steve Tanijo!!
