    Happy with our lawyers .Thanks Dr. Keith V. E – United States

  • FANTASTIC!!! Thank you so much, Francisco! Thank you and Magali for all your diligence, commitment and encouraging words! I’m over the moon!" K. and J. – Puerto Rico

  • I highly recommend .My husband and I had particularly bad luck with a previous lawyer, who caused us to have a 1 year delay in our paperwork. Our case was not straight forward, and she had to do a lot of work on our case. He was extremely patient with all my emails, and he was always able to contact the necessary people. He responds very quickly to emails, and explains the process as it goes along. He was able to get my husband here in much less time anticipated because of her attention to detail. We are so happy and lucky to have found Francisco. I highly recommend immigrationvisa247.com for any immigration needs!!" Theresa K – United States
