"They were super affordable"
I have nothing but good things to say about the Andrade Auld Law group. They are well known for immigration law, but I needed their help with a local code enforcement issue and they were happy to help! They were very knowledgeable, proactive, responsive and kept me well-informed. They do free consultations and after that they were super affordable. Problem is now solved and we owe it all to them! Thank you guys so much!!!

"Jacqueline has made me have faith in immigration lawyers once again"
I want to leave this review for Jacqueline. Jacqueline has made me have faith in immigration lawyers once again coming from bad experience from a well-known lawyer in LA that took our case more than five years to get resolved with no solution and took more than just advantage of us in our situation. Jacqueline worked her magic, and we got a resolution within five months. Since I didn’t get my worked permit in time, she filed my Daca With no additional fees, I received my Daca and within weeks I got my appointment for my green card. She’s a very professional and caring person who works your case like you are her family. This is why I recommend everyone to get an appointment with her. The best lawyer and best human being. Thank you, Jacqueline, for everything you have done for me.

"Thanks to her I have gained hope again"Attorney Jacqueline Andrade hands down has been an amazing attorney; someone who cares about her clients and treats them with love and respect. She is a type of person who you can have the confidence to ask any question you may have. Thanks to her I have gained hope again which I had lost years ago with bad experiences from different attorneys. She has done an exceptional job helping us with my husband’s case. I recommend her 100%- Maria Gonzalez
