A little more than a year ago, we hired Gabriel to help my Brazilian wife get her permanent residency in the US after we got married. While it's possible to do the process yourself, we felt substantially more comfortable knowing that an attorney who has been doing this for years would be able to help us. The fee is a negligible price to pay for peace of mind. When you hire Gabriel, the process requires almost no work on your end. He is competent, straightforward, honest, and able to intelligently answer questions. Derek, assistant to Gabriel, is similarly kind, thoughtful, and -- most importantly -- great at his job. Thankfully, my wife received her permanent residency status (also known as a "green card"), and I owe gratitude to Gabriel and Derek for assisting us with this.
