An excellent lawyer! Very knowledgeable. He helped my father get his citizenship in the least stressful way possible. Every step of the process was carefully explained so he understood what was happening and what to expect. When the big day came, Gallardo Law Group was there to make sure everything went smoothly.

I am proud to say my parents are now able to travel to their home country! Attorney Gallardo has been helpful throughout the process! He helped my parents obtain their residency in less than two years. His front office staff were always nice when answering the phone. They were professional and had everything organized. The office itself was always organized and clean. For the most part it was a smooth process! Thank you.

Today was the best day ever that Carlos Gallardo was able to get my husbands work permit. The wait was worth it. He’s the best immigration attorney in the whole world. My husband had a very difficult case Carlos was able to win it.
Don’t hesitate to give him a call. You will be in good hands. FYI this day will be marked for ever he celebrated a birthday and a man walked with a smile in he’s face for ever. God bless you Carlos for helping. Keep up the good work.
