Our track record of successful practice in this area is evidence of the high standard of knowledge and skill brought to bear in respect to all cases that we handle and all instances when we provide advice and representation.
The firm prides itself on its speed of response, dealing with matters efficiently and conscientiously at all times.

We are aware that those consulting us are often in difficult positions, sometimes with urgent or compelling business or personal needs that hinge on their immigration requirements, calling for dependable and confident advice and assistance. Our practical approach is directed at understanding our clients' needs and meeting those needs.
After graduating law school, I pursued my career, focusing on U.S. business immigration law. I assist foreign workers who want to live and work in the United States by understanding their situation, goals and objectives. I obtain the appropriate work and investment visas. My clients range from multi-national companies to mid-sized and small companies, as well as individuals undergoing the U.S. immigration process.
I volunteer with non profit organizations, offering immigration help to indigent applicants. We also take numerous pro bono cases, such as abused spouses cases and cases involving immigrants who are children.
I encourage clients to use the web to learn about immigration and that is why I have created the self-help kit available at www.tnvisaexpert.com.
I do review documents prepared by clients, but we issue the appropriate disclaimers if they wish to continue the case without the lawyer.
It will depend on the case and the immigration issue involved.
I love the mastery of details, both factual and legal. I love shaping a case to my client's maximum advantage. I love the passion inherent in persuading someone of the justice of your cause. I love helping people using all of my skills. I cannot imagine doing anything else.
My international experience having worked and studied in Europe helps me a lot in dealing with Immigration and International matters. I am also educated in both the European and American system and that makes a huge difference to clients.
Much to my astonishment (I originally wanted to be a litigation lawyer), I found that I had a knack for immigration and international law. Immigration is especially interesting because the law is trying to keep up with the speed of political changes in the country. Being an immigrant myself and going through the immigration hoops, I realized that a good immigration lawyer is an asset and I am trying to be one myself. There are always fascinating new issues in immigration law and I have decided to limit my practice to this one area.
I like representing individuals and small businesses as well as the flexibility of having my own firm. I also like having the ability to do this particular kind of work, instead of working in a large law firm and only representing major corporations.
I am fortunate to have established a tight link of legal affiliates that allow me to provide superb service to our clients. My affiliate office in Tijuana provides all the support we need for Mexican business and immigration services. Mr. Rodrigo Hernandez is an experienced immigration lawyer who is heading that office. Mr. David Sheen is my affiliate attorney in Northern California, providing immigration support to international immigration clients. We also work with other lawyers in cases where other areas of law are needed.
Having done hundreds of these cases, I know the importance of the issues and I know the best approach to take. Often, I know the best approach while being able to guarantee the results.
I am confident, dedicated, patient and relentless on these issues.
I have a wife and a baby boy who keep me busy, and I'm very active in international groups in San Diego area. I also practice Tae Kwon Do and other martial arts to help me keep up with the stress and balance life and work.
