Mr Hanes did a great job in resolving a trade name dispute for my company. Very professional, affordable, and great communication.

I seriously thought about leaving a review but I think it's necessary and people should know.
My name is Jennifer.
My husband Pedro and myself had a Consultation appointment on May 2018 and Amber was the one that we saw.
My husband's final Immigration Court was coming on August the 1st and we brought to the appointment all the evidence that we had gathered for it.
She barely looked at the evidence and told us that there was no hope at all, and that she was pretty sure my husband was going to be deported. My kids have ptsd and she said that PTSD was not enough to prove extreme hardship on the case; she even said that 99 % of chances were my husband was going to lose the case. We were shocked and discouraged! I asked her for different options like appeals, prosecutorial discretions etc and I remember that she laughed at my face and said that in these times with this President prosecutorial discretions were things from the past.
Thank God friends from us told us not to give up and get a second opinion, but we were so sad and discouraged thinking: An immigration lawyer just told us there's no hope! We wanted to give up and we were so sad and scared.
We listened to our friends and we hire DMCA Causa Immigration Law Firm we had our Court and we won the case! I will never forget the words of the Judge when she said " This family has suffered a lot, specially those kids" and think about when Amber said that PTSD was not enough.
I have read good reviews about her, but those reviews are about applications like ( citizenships, green cards etc) and that requires filling up paperwork and sending them to immigration, that's just a process that a paralegal could do; it doesn't involved litigation or defending clients; in my opinion that's what a real Lawyer should be reviewed about.
I hope she can read this review and think about what she could have caused to us if we would have listened to her.
There's a difference in giving your opinion as a Lawyer after you see the evidence than to almost predict an outcome without even seeing all the evidence and talk lightly about an issue so serious like PTSD without knowing.
Amber said that PTSD was not enough and that there was a 99% of probabilities my husband was going to be deported. Again we won the case and PTSD was the reason why my husband was able to stay.

My husband and I were struggling with the paperwork and knowing what to file. They took over the process and everything went smoothly! Best decision we made was hiring them to represent us. We would probably still be waiting for a green card without them!

Finally getting around to getting my citizenship application sorted. I had the N-400 completed and asked Hanes and Bartel to look it over. Brenda Bartels referred me to Amber, their immigration Lawyer, who was great. She noticed a quite a few issues with my form, and hopefully has stopped any delays in processing the application.
Would def recommend , and use again.

I was lucky to have found Brenda during a battle with a business partner. We were a family new to Colorado who had put all of our hard earned money into a small business with an individual who ended up being dishonest and unethical. I called around and I felt like no one wanted to help. Not sure if it's because it was too small of a case or they didn't understand the issue.
Brenda was the light at the end of the tunnel when we were distraught, alone, and highly concerned for our livelihood.She not only expressed anger for what was being done to us by this individual but she fought with intensity and dedication as well. She listened, made us feel at ease, and instilled utmost trust. I cannot thank her enough for all she did during this difficult time in our lives. We, absolutely and without hesitation, highly recommend her!
