I booked Sonia in regards to a petition for an alien relative of a Permanent Resident. She's one of the most knowledgeable, professional, and compassionate lawyers I ever talked to. Being a prior USCIS officer, she has first hand knowledge of how petitions and forms move through the system and how to properly communicate with USCIS. Highly recommend hiring, Sonia.

Sonia is such an exemplary immigration lawyer in Los Angeles. She actually advocates the client's confidence just solely with her presence.
I had consultations with bunch of lawyers in the town - but not many of them have the admirable warmth and preciseness as Sonia does.
I was always stress-free since the day she decided to represent me. I would avidly refer her to anyone who is in the need of an immigration attorney.

Sonia is a very down-to-earth, honest and passionate attorney. She generously gave me an hour of her time and walked me through various scenarios for my particular issue. More so, she was very responsive to emails and additional questions that I had. Great experience.

Sonia made the very stressful ordeal of getting a green card as easy as it can possibly be. Always very prompt to reply to any questions i may have had.
I really liked speaking to someone that knew first hand what things the officers may ask so i could get together the required evidence before the interview. I would recommend Sonia for any Immigration services you may need.

Escoger Sonia como nuestra abogada fue sin duda una de las mejores decisiones que mi esposo y yo pudimos haber tomado, la última vez que vine a los estados unidos marcaron entrada como salida y cuando buscamos abogados para tramitar la green card, muchos me recomendaron regresar a Mexico y hacer todo el trámite desde allá y aun así el proceso duraría de 6 meses a un año, cuando hablamos con Sonia ella nos dijo que era un caso fácil y así fue! Mi green card fue aprobada en menos de 3 meses! Su experiencia como agente de la USCIS nos hizo sentir cómodos al contratar sus servicios. Gracias Sonia!

I found Sonia on Avvo and after going through her reviews I was ready to hire her services.
The first time we met , it was pretty intense because she is really a compassionate lawyer. She does listen a lot... you should be sincere and friendly.
Prior to her I exchanged with some lawyers who were either quite judgmental or pricey. Needless to say , Sonia was none of the above.
She is also pretty affordable. However I strongly advise you to do your homework. Keep track of all your applications with uscis ( keep a copy of everything you file) and help Sonia as much as you can because for what she charges you do not want her to overwork herself. At least that's what I did. I wrote my own detailed affidavit and assisted Sonia all the way.
We overcame an 8 page request for additional evidence. Amazing!
My VAWA petition got approved in few months.
Thank you Sonia. God bless you!

I was dealing with an extremely complex and rare issue regarding immigration. Sonia comforted me in the fact that she was willing to put in the time and effort required in order to find an agreeable solution. Her military background shines through and her experience working for the immigration branch of the government is invaluable. I would highly recommend anyone considering Sonia to follow through on their decision. They won't be disappointed.

My experience with Sonia was excellent ! She always returned my calls and when she didn't or couldn't help me with something she was quick to get a fellow attorney right on it ! She's professional and kind . I will refer her to my friends and family without question !

I contacted Sonia regarding a K-1 visa application after we had a complication that resulted in a refusal of entry into the US on a subsequent B1/B2. She answered every question that I had regarding the process, presented any potential barriers I hadn’t already thought about, and already had thought of creative workarounds to any scenario before I asked it. She is incredibly passionate about immigration. She certainly knows legalese but doesn’t speak it. I definitely recommend her legal expertise and legal reform. She was such a breath of fresh air during a stressful immigration time!

Before I met Sonia Figueroa I was quite disappointed, I met many lawyers and I felt I could not trust any of them, the greed some lawyers have is very overwhelming. Now a days is very hard to find honest people. Sonia is a woman with a strong ethic, and good intention, besides having great knowledge about immigration . She will not lie to you. I was convicted for misdemeanor two years ago and I thought all my chances of fixing my immigration status were over, however, she gave me the right information to get me set and work towards my ultimate goal. She gave me hope and real facts. I really trust her , and I recommend her she is truly the best.

Sonia helped me and my wife and made a really complicated process seem easy and not as scary and overwhelming as we had thought it would be. She was very knowledgeable and professional while also being warm and friendly as she took her time to make sure we were prepared for our process. Highly recommended!!
