I would recommend Ms. Solimar Mercado-Spencer

I have talked to a few attorneys in the last several months but did not get any results. My friend told me about Ms. Solimar Mercado about a month ago and I made an appointment to talk to her. It only took me a few minutes to realize this was the person I should have gone to in the beginning. I ha...ve never met someone so compassionate and honest at what they do. She sat down with me and asked me questions and I felt she was really listening to me. I have to be honest, my case is just beginning, but I have never felt better about my case. She communicates with me (just doing that is more than the last 2 guys) on a constant bases. When I leave her a voice mail or send an e-mail, she has responded 100% of the time. I trust her and know she will do everything she can to help me. If you are reading this review, do yourself a favor and give her a call. I am putting a link to her website to help you find her. http://www.mercadospencerlaw.com

Immigration lawyer | Apr 04

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am an immigration practitioner defending individuals in removal proceedings. I learned about Ms. Mercado-Spencer from opposing counsel representing the Department of Homeland Security. I was representing an individual who needed a very specialized type of visa. The assistant chief counsel on the case gave me Ms. Mercado-Spencer's name as a reference to someone who had done an amazing job on the client's behalf. He was very impressed with her work and dedication. After I had a chance to speak with her, I too was able to gage her high level on professionalism and dedication and can only say thanks Solimar for all your help! I could not have done it without your help."
