Success Stories

"We have been helping immigrants for many years and in many ways," says Immigration Law Directing Attorney, Michael J. Ortiz.

"In some cases, success means keeping a family intact by either stopping a deportation, or by simply processing the right paperwork to reunite family members. In other cases it means empowering a battered immigrant woman to the point where she can now take charge of her life: sever the ties to the batterer; obtain her work documents; obtain her green card; breathe freely. And for others, success means negotiating through or removing the barriers that have prevented the immigrant from achieving his or her dream of becoming a US citizen."
