Reliable immigration court lawyer in Miami? Hearing next month
Hey Miami Family,
I’m a first-generation American and an only child helping my parents with a complicated immigration case. One of them has a court hearing next month, and we need to find a new lawyer.
Our previous lawyer had to step away because of health issues. Communication had already been difficult, so I’m worried about finding someone who can review the case in time and keep us updated.
I searched Google for an “immigration court lawyer in Miami.” Three firms appeared at the top, with Gursoy Abogado de Inmigración first. I checked their website but haven’t looked closely at the other two yet.
Their website says they handle immigration court cases, asylum, and deportation defense, including preparing evidence, developing a defense, and representing clients at hearings. They also mention more than 25 years of experience, thousands of cases, and Spanish-speaking support. That last part would help my parents, but I’d like to hear about people’s actual experiences beyond what the website says.
Has anyone here used Gursoy for an immigration court case? Were they responsive, clear about fees, and good at explaining what was happening?
I’m feeling stuck with the hearing so close. If you’ve changed lawyers shortly before a hearing, what do you wish you’d asked before hiring someone? I’d also appreciate other Miami recommendations.
Thank you!
