“I paid $6,000 for representation in my family case. After six months, I received a court notification directly from the court without my attorneys informing me. They only notified me one day before the hearing and demanded an additional $1,000 to represent me. I later realized that little to no work had been done on my case during those six months, and I was told that my funds were already exhausted without receiving a proper explanation or detailed billing statement. On the day of the hearing, I was asked to make another payment in order for them to continue representing me. After that, they began requesting weekly payments of $500 to $600. I am very disappointed with the lack of communication, transparency, and professionalism. I trusted them with my case and my money, and I did not receive the level of service I expected. I would not recommend this firm based on my experience.”

“I want to recognize Mary Soto, the paralegal who attended and supported my case. If you choose Gallardo Law Firm, I only recommend them if you have the chance to work with her. Mary was the only person consistently following up, supporting me, calling me, and truly communicating with me as a client. She was attentive, compassionate, and extremely professional throughout the entire process. Gallardo should be proud and grateful to have someone like her on their team. She truly is the best.”

“Working with this immigration attorney specially with the attorney Mara, was one of the best decisions I made. They were attentive, responsive, and very knowledgeable about my case. They prepared everything thoroughly and represented me with confidence in court. Thanks to them, my case was approved, and I am beyond grateful. I highly recommend their services to anyone going through an immigration process.”

“IF YOURE READING THIS GO GET ANOTHER LAWYER!!! I honestly regret working with Gallardo Lawyers. Their billing is completely out of control. Be prepared to be charged for literally every single phone call even those you can't even pick up! They will own your time and charge you for it. There was zero transparency, and every time I saw a new charge it made less and less sense. How do you justify charging a client for calls where nothing even happens. It really felt like I was being taken advantage of. Instead of helping me. Do yourself a favor and think twice before hiring them. RUUUUN AWAYYYY FROM THIS PEOPLE!”

“I am a Jamaican national, 30 years old. I hired Gallardo Law Firm to help me with my Immigration Case where I had been detained. They were attentive, helpful and supportive every step of the way. Today I am able to personally write a testimony because Gallardo handled my case and we emerged victorious. A special thank you to Cinthya Gomez, Paralegal, Annerys Reyes, Paralegal, and Attorney Marinagely Mercado, Esq) who worked directly with and for me. My family and friends called the law firm continuous and were met with professionalism, respect and honesty even when the call was for "stupid" questions. When dealing with any immigration or any legal matter it is important to have people who have your back and will do everything in their power to assist. This law firm are those people.”

“This law firm is a rare and special kind--they treat you like a human being, and with urgency. For these reasons, even though I didn't choose representation for my second case, everything they've exemplified is deserving of another 5-star review. Please keep up the good work. The second time around, Atty. Sal and paralegal Patricia had helped me with my potential case.”

“I cannot say enough amazing things about Mary Soto. She has been nothing short of extraordinary as the paralegal handling my husband Juan's case. From day one, Mary has shown a level of dedication, professionalism, and compassion that goes far beyond what we ever expected. Mary is not just detail oriented and incredibly organized, she is deeply committed to ensuring that every single document, motion, and request is handled accurately and on time. Her communication is exceptional: she answers questions clearly, patiently, and always makes sure we fully understand each step of the legal process. What makes Mary truly special is the human touch she brings to her work. She treats our case as if it were her own family's case. Her empathy, kindness, and encouragement have given us strength during some of the most stressful moments of this process. We also want to give a special thanks to Attorney Jonathan, whose guidance and expertise have been invaluable. Together, Jonathan and Mary make an extraordinary team. they are organized, responsive, and truly fight for their clients. Because of Mary and Jonathan, we feel supported and hopeful, knowing that our case is in the best hands possible. We are deeply grateful for their dedication and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a legal team that combines skill, professionalism, and genuine compassion.”

“Deeply Disappointed - Gallardo Law Firm Turned Their Back When It Mattered Most I went to Gallardo Law Firm seeking help and justice for my 7-year-old daughter (6 at the time), who had gone through serious emotional trauma while visiting her mother. I brought videos and recorded calls -- all admissible in court -- showing exactly what my daughter experienced, including being left alone multiple times and exposed to highly inappropriate behavior between her mother and her partner. At first, the attorneys acted shocked and genuinely concerned. Weeks later, everything changed. They suddenly told me they "didn't have a case" and gave me weak excuses for refusing to represent me -- completely ignoring the evidence they had already seen. It was clear something shifted behind the scenes, as if they'd been influenced or discouraged by the opposing side. Meanwhile, the real victim -- my daughter -- was left unprotected. To make matters worse, they tried to charge me over $1,500 extra beyond the credit I already had, and when I questioned it, they used the same excuse I've seen in other reviews -- claiming they had "notified" me. It's obvious this firm only takes easy, profitable cases and drops the ones that require real work or courage. Gallardo Law Firm starts by sweet-talking you and showing false empathy, but when your situation becomes serious, they retreat, make excuses, and walk away. What they did was not just unprofessional -- it was unethical, especially when a child's safety was involved. If you truly care about justice, integrity, and doing what's right, avoid Gallardo Law Firm. They failed me, and more importantly, they failed to stand up for an innocent child who needed protection.”
