“Mrs. Phelps not only took me out of Jail, she is obtaining my permanent residence”

April 1, 2014

I entered this country at the age of 15 as a non-immigrant visitor. As many other aliens, I over stayed the authorized period of admittance and became an illegal alien.

I was protected by the 245 I but one day I left the United States due to an emergency and I was caught at the border. Therefore, I was not longer protected by the 245I, and I became an alien who was not admitted or inspected by an immigration officer.

For many years I live in the United States as many others. I admit having used other identities and to constantly avoid any encounter with immigration. One day I have a dispute with my girlfriend that resulted in an arrest for domestic violence. At the county jail my immigration status came to the attention of ICE and before my family could post a bond for my release, an immigration hold was placed. My family became desperate attempting to find a person who could assist me. Many lawyers told my family that I was going to be removed and that was little or not hope for me, but they will take the case upon payment of thousands of dollars.

My family was not convince with any of the lawyers we visited in the riverside and san Bernardino county areas until somebody referred us to Mrs. Phelps.

From the beginning Mrs.Phelps show my family she knew what she was speaking. She was sincere and took a couple of hours (free of charge) to explain the letter of the law to my sister in law and brother. She explained to them how she pretended to defend me in both actions “criminal and immigration” and she made sense.

We retained Mrs Phelps and during the entire process, both criminal and immigration she was more than a lawyer she was a caring, compassionate and very efficient person., fighting hard for my rights. For her was not time for her, any time my family called her day or night she answered and she was there.

Mrs. Phelps knows very well the criminal and immigration Laws, and represented me in the Criminal case with an complete knowledge of what sentence I could and cold not receive and during the entire time she dealt with the prosecutors until she negotiated a very favorable plea for me.

Mrs. Phelps not only took me out of Jail, she is obtaining my permanent residence, I am now authorized to work in the United States and my immigrant visa interview is coming very soon. I just have one word for Mrs. Phelps : “Thanks”.

I will recommend Mrs. Phelps to any person because she is not just knowledgeable in the immigration and criminal laws but she is a very caring, humane and sensible person who is unique in the profession. I have never met a lawyer who always attend the calls of her clients day and nights and holidays.
