I will continue to use her services for anything I need.

  This law firm is absolutely AMAZING. I have worked at A&P for over 6 months now and it has been incredibly worthwhile. The lead attorneys Eddie and Maggie are devoted to achieving the best possible outcome for each and every one of their clients. Representing their clients is more than a career for them. The two of them are committed to advocating for their clients AND impacting the lives of every client that has stepped into this office.

I have witnessed Eddie and Maggie provide their clients with thorough advice and a clear walk-through of the legal process to ensure their clients completely understand everything set out before them. As a product of immigrant parents myself, It is an inspiration to see how hard these two will fight for their clients' rights. No legal fight is deemed impossible for these two. There is no doubt in my mind that the entire staff here at A&P will work hard to ensure your legal needs are met.

  Desde el momento en que mi esposo y yo conocimos a Eduardo y a Maggie supe que estábamos en excelentes manos! Durante 5 años estuvimos luchando con mi proceso inmigratorio para obtener mi residencia, por suerte, gracias a la recomendación de unos amigos pudimos contactar la oficina de Arias and Pereira y así acudir por su ayuda y asesoramiento. Todos los días le doy gracias a la vida por haberlos puesto en nuestro camino, la confianza, el profesionalismo, la seguridad y la buena energía que ellos transmiten a sus clientes es indescriptible! Me sentí muy segura con ellos y el conocimiento que tienen en el area de procesos inmigratorios se nota con sus respuestas y acciones!

Gracias por todo lo que hicieron por nosotros y por mi, ustedes y su equipo de trabajo nos han cambiado la vida para mejor y nos han quitado un gran peso de encima, gracias a ustedes ahora podemos decir que vivimos tranquilos y en paz en este país.

  My wife & I had a difficult immigration situation, also our case had been denied & prolonged by the the pandemic and past administration
We were recommended to Arias & Pereira by a close friend. We were concerned & stressed , when we called the office we were defeated by the process, from the moment the staff answered the phone we were treated with the upmost respect and attention to our case.
Mrs Arias spoke to us on the phone that moment, within one hour I was welcomed at the office I was in a private meeting with Mrs Arias & Mr Pereira and the level of representation from these two highly qualified attorneys shocked me!!!
The staff worked endlessly to gather all that was needed along with the attorneys
Needless to say 5 DAYS later our case was resolved !!
No words can express our gratitude and the level  of professionalism this office provided

  Whenever I am unable to take the case, I tell all prospective clients to head to the compassionate and brilliant legal team at Arias & Pereira.  If you have an immigration matter, Maggie will listen deeply, treat you as if you were family, and use her countless years acquiring expertise to ensure the best possible outcome.  Look no further for your go-to for all immigration solutions.
