This place is a disaster, hiding behind years of bad habits and an outdated reputation…read more My husband had an extremely disappointing experience with this immigration law firm. Their handling of his citizenship application was unprofessional and disorganized, marked by unnecessary delays, additional fees (including a ludicrous "argument fee" after a particularly concerning interaction with a paralegal who displayed a contemptuous attitude, condescendingly addressing my husband in a manner that was both offensive and unacceptable.) Despite fulfilling all requests, including a costly trip to Ecuador for the required documentation, we faced avoidable complications and disrespectful behavior from staff. Frustrated by this firm's lack of competence, we terminated the contract. While we accepted their unreasonable $400 termination fee, the audacity of adding a further $25 "argument fee" for him simply asserting respect was beyond belief. Latinos: you deserve to be treated with dignity, professionalism, and respect! Save yourself the headache and find a firm that actually values its clients. Do better. They sure as hell won't.

Brunilda quien cuando inicié mi ardua búsqueda de un abogado leal y efectivo me contacto con Sr.Portela y tras esperar por mi cita me garantizo que la espera valdría la pena. En el día Junio 30/2022 gracias a la efectividad, herramientas concernientes a la ley en NY y habilidad del Sr.Portela logramos cerrar un caso entre Landlord-Tenant que se encontraba bastante complicado y desde mi punto de vista ya lo consideraba perdido. Hoy día tenemos la alegria de celebrar un acuerdo justo y real como decimos los hispanos con papeles en mano! El Sr. Manuel nos guió desde un principio, supo guerrear nuestros puntos con el abogado oponente y llegar a un acuerdo sin necesidad de ir a Corte o peor aún llegar a perder lo ya invertido desde hace ya unos años en nuestro establecimiento. Deseo resaltar para los q se den la oportunidad de leer este mensaje... la parte bilingüe del Sr. Portela. Uno de sus lenguajes primarios es Español así que para compatriotas de la comunidad hispana que sientan algun temor o duda de si el "abogado" los entenderá o sabrá entender su necesidad es El una excelente opción. Antes de llegar a Mr.Portela pase por 2 opciones más acá en el área de Jackson Hts, Queens y lo volveremos a elegir a Él en futuras necesidades. Bendiciones y éxitos a Portela Law Firm Bendiciones y éxitos para quien nos lea.

Mr La Salle and Mrs. Cordoba along with all the staff at this office helped me greatly on my…read moreimmigration case. My case was so complicated that many lawyers did not want to take it. However, Richard and Elizabeth Córdoba offered to help me after my second visit to their office. From the beginning they were very clear on how we would proceed, all the fees involved , the timeframe in which they would resolved my case and win it. They also were very understandable when it came down to the payment for both the government and for their services. Moreover, they were always there for me, I would email them about anything and everything in regards to my case and they promptly answered all my questions. Immigration process can be so daunting and stressful but they always were very honest and communicated every detail at every step of my process. I would 100% recommend the services of this office to anyone, I have referred them to all my family members and friends. One of the most important things that speaks to their professionalism is their honesty and the affordable fees of their services along with they payment arrangements. Today I'm finally a permanent resident thanks to their help. Don't be afraid, give them a call, if they can help you they will, otherwise they will be very honest and won't waste your time and money.

Claimed to be able to help my mother, knew everything about her case the first day and still promised results that "no other lawyers" were able to solve.

They promised a lot in beginning and were not able to deliver anything, fake promises all around and a waste of time!!
