Cheers to the New Year!

It has been some time since I last posted any comments on this blog. Since the last time I posted anything, I have had some interesting experiences in immigration practice and in family law. My firm focuses primarily on deportation defense; however, having the title “immigration lawyer” implies you can handle other areas in immigration law….right? Well, let me start by saying that I have handled money forfeiture cases with customs, removal of conditional resident status, citizen interviews, federal criminal consulting, state criminal plea consulting, family visas, waivers and board of immigration appeal briefs. Throughout this time I have met some wonderful people with amazing stories. They call themselves “clients.” These are the people that feed my enthusiasm for the law and make me love it each day. I have saved many people from removal from the United States and have assisted many others obtain their visas. My clients have impacted my life with their amazing stories more than they can ever imagine. My office has witnessed many emotions, tears, hugs, and family meltdowns; all along the way my clients have left their mark and I always, must remain professional. Immigration law is very black and white. There is some gray room but it is a very small percentage. Most of the time you must deliver bad news to clients, but it is the delivery of these news what makes the attorney-client relationships stronger. For now, this post is dedicated to all my clients and all the stories I carry as part of my own personal and professional foundation!
