Excelente abogado
Contratar a Gustavo para que llevara mi caso de Ajuste de Estatus por Matrimonio fue una excelente decisión! Gustavo es una persona muy responsable, atenta, confiable y sabe lo que está haciendo. Durante mi proceso siempre fue muy claro y transparente con todos los pasos a seguir , el tramite duró exactamente lo que al principio él nos dijo que se iba a tardar ,siempre tuvimos muy buena comunicación y yo personalmente me sentí muy cómoda con sus servicios . Habla perfectamente inglés y español y se nota la gran experiencia laboral con la que cuenta. Definitivamente volvería a contratarlo en el futuro !

Excelente service
I have been working with Cueva the last couple of years for my work permit renewal. Prior to hiring Mr. Cueva we had a consultation to see if we be the right match for my case. He took the time to answered my every concern and question. We decided to move forward and hire him. My process have been non complicated. He has always kept in touch with me with through the entire legal process. He has handled my case even after moving out of Wa. His rate has stayed the same since day 1 and no hidden fees. Great lawyer that I would recommend. I will continue to work with Mr. Cueva. -DLM.

Beyond Grateful for Gustavo
Gustavo Cueva is an amazing immigration lawyer. My husband and I found him on Google after his first application was denied. We had been working on the first for many years on our own, and were feeling hopeless. Gustavo was very kind and got us in quickly. He reviewed the information from our prior case and gave us a few options of how to proceed. We ended up filing a new application through our marriage. Gustavo went over the timeline and had a list of documents and things that we needed to gather. He made it very easy and was quick to answer all of our questions. When the state tried to push back, he didn't hesitate to reach out and explain next steps. He fought hard for us and our family and finally, we got an email from him letting us know my husband was approved for his green card. I cried tears of happiness and relief as I read that email. I immediately called my husband and read the email to him. That made our whole week!! Gustavo is great at communicating and making sure that you understand the process and what to expect. He speaks English and Spanish fluently and has so much expierence with this from his own personal story as well. He made it happen and will do all that he can for you if you decide to work with him. He also has payment plans if you are not able to pay in full. He is truly a wonderful person and I am forever grateful that we found him. Thank you Gustavo!!

Best Lawyer We Could Have Worked With!
I had a very specific and troublesome case that had taken me 12 years and kept getting pushed off and denied. With Gustavo, my case was approved in about a year. I know everyone's situation is different, but I truly believe without Gustavo I couldn't have done it. Thank you thank you thank you so much!! Hire this man, he's very honest, transparent, nice, professional, and fights for you!

Exceptional & Trustworthy
It has been such a pleasure working with Gustavo, he is reliable, trustworthy, kind and respectful. After working with many immigrations lawyers, Gustavo is really like no other. Before charging you, he will make sure he can actually help you and he will take the time to make sure he understands your situation. It is tough to find someone as honest and reliable as him. I look forward to continue working with him, it has been an honor!

A lot of help in a confusing process.
Feeling overwhelmed looking at immigration paperwork, our friend referred us to Mr. Cueva, so after calling and scheduling a meeting we decided to hire him, and it was such a relief! He was friendly, knowledgeable, and helped us fly through this process with confidence. Any question we had, he was quick to answer. It’s very comforting knowing someone like Gustavo was there for us every step of the way. My husband and I fully recommend his services to anyone.
