George and his team followed us through everything. They helped us get our file ready and made sure we would be ready for anything. They answered all of our questions and really reassured us in time of doubt and stress!

I worked with George and Derek with my DV adjustment of status case. My case was a bit special as I had a history. They were so considerate and went through all the details with me throughout this yearlong journey, and I was well prepared by them for the interview as the last step. I was happy to have George with me at the interview, and the interview couldn’t go any better! They got my highest applause.

— Client 09/10/2021

Although our case took 2years George has always been patient and attentive. Beyond his attorney attire, he was also our mental support. This has been the most challenging process we have ever encounter. My husband is actually in the states with me and we are getting ready to go back home for our traditional wedding thanks to George. When looking for attorneys, he was the only one who explained the process, what we need and what's best for us (of course i did a little bit of research before contacting anyone) He even called me on a sunday!!!! If you are looking for an attorney who will not cut corners, honest and straightforward, look no further. I HIGHLY recommend George and co.for any cases you may have. Hope this review will help you in your search

George was recommended to me by a friend who retained him as a lawyer several years ago. I decided to call George and we had a very pleasant call where he explained the good and the bad about my case, the possible outcomes, the process and everything I needed to know. I'm a strong believer that communication is key in every aspect of life and I am more than happy that I received answers to all of my questions. I'd recommend George to everyone who's looking for a knowledgeable, communicative and experienced immigration lawyer.

Words cannot describe how grateful we are for all of George Tenreiro's help. He is an excellent lawyer, but more than that he was a calming presence during a stressful process. My wife is Canadian, so we sought George's help in obtaining her lawful permanent resident status (green card) after our marriage. George explained exactly how each step would work. He was incredibly responsive - quickly returning all of our calls and emails. He answered all of our questions (and we had many!). George also demonstrated incredible patience and never made us feel rushed. In fact, my wife and I have discussed how uncommon it is to come across any professional that is so patient and generous with their time, let alone a busy lawyer. His office staff is also excellent. We always felt well informed, as George and his staff promptly notified us about matters that pertained our case and its status. George was there for us each step of the way and his kind guidance kept the extensive green card process from feeling overwhelming. George came highly recommended to us from one of my wife's colleagues. We highly recommend George as well!

— Client 04/19/2021

George is professional and thorough in the preparation of all documents while also being extremely patient and helpful in explaining the process. He helped us prepare, review, and submit our immigration paperwork.

— Client 03/27/2021

I am using this opportunity to appreciate George and his Pera legal Derek after doing a remarkable job in defending my Asylum Case during this very uncertain and inconvenient time middle of the pandemic. Before hiring George for this very complex asylum process, I had consulted few lawyers but was highly impressed by the way George paid attention to details and keenly listened and addressed my concerns in the 1st meeting itself. I was very stressed and scared concerning my case but George walked me through all the details and made me feel so comfortable, that's why I mentioned " Beacon of hope". Therefore I decided to hire him to represent me defending my Asylum application. Throughout the process, George and Derek were always so professional in arranging all the documents, corresponding to get required paperwork, and timely filing. Within 2 weeks we were scheduled for the Asylum hearing but he made sure we are fully prepared. I was thoroughly impressed by the legal documentation, presentation and research George and his team did on my case to make sure it is presented in a best-given manner were phenomenal. During the interview, George made sure he covered all the bases, highlighted all the valid points to make sure the asylum officer is fully aware and presented me the way that I firmly believe no other lawyer could have done, period! I couldn't dream for a better representation of my case than George already did. This was the reason we left the NY Asylum office with great optimism and positive energy, hoping that we might get good news soon. After a long 2 months delay on the decision due to a pandemic, I finally received my decision a day ago which states that asylum has been granted. I can not imagine this happening with George and Derek's representation and Hard work! I firmly believe he is one of the best Immigration Lawyer in the industry who deserves all the appreciation and credit he truly deserves. Thank you George for all that you did for me and my family. Cheeerrrrss!

— Client 03/06/2021

I could not have a better attorney and I will never forget the great work he did and will recommend his service to anyone that needs a lawyer.

— Client 09/03/2020

George was the only attorney out of 5 prospects that took our case. All others told us our case was impossible and doomed before we ever started. Not George, he graciously told us it would be a journey, but it was not impossible. He advised us accurately on what to expect from the legal process and assured us he would do what he could to help us. And he absolutely did! He was patient, understanding, and forthcoming. We appreciated working with him and trusted him completely. And we were not disappointed. He always followed through and listened to our needs. George never made us feel inferior or judged. He was professional, courteous, and always communicative. Now our family can move forward together all because George said yes. We would highly recommend him to anyone. He is the best person for the job!

George is a nice professional lawyer, he helped us and he give us all the instructions to get my green card. Thank to him and Derek.

— Client 06/25/2020

My green card case was pending for 3.5 years before I met George. Over these years I tried everything, called USCIS at least 100 times, went to info pass 5 times, visited/emailed the senator a dozen times. I hired a lawyer before, but he did not do nothing but sending me bills. But the only response I get is "your case is pending". I was so tired and frustrated. After I hired George, my case started moving, and within 4 months, I got my green card. Finally my long ordeal is over. George is a great immigration lawyer. He is very responsive, and most importantly, he gets things done.

— Client 06/10/2020

I reached out to George Tenreiro (via telephone) 2 years ago with questions about immigration law. He took the time to answer all my questions and offer some valuable suggestions on what steps I can take. I was so pleased with my initial contact with him that one year later I hired him to assist me with helping a family member become legal in the US. He took us step-by-step through the paperwork and the items we would need to build our case. The firm was able to put us on a payment schedule to help with legal costs. He was professional and courteous throughout the entire process. We appreciated his honesty and support with all of our questions. He always followed-up promptly on emails and calls. I would recommend George to someone who needs an immigration lawyer that truly knows his craft. He cares about his clients and tries to do what he can to really help them during this difficult process.

— Client 01/02/2020

George Tenreiro is super excellent, knowledgeable, respectable , patient, honest, and kind. Our F2A case was filed by a local attorney, and has been pending for almost 2 years. When George accepted our case and he guided us through every step and made sure that all our questions were answered, as well as helped file our concurring case in time. Although we are in Texas. We couldn't have asked for better legal representation and would definitely recommend him to anyone who is considering filing immigration, no matter in local or remote.

I highly recommend George and his team.

— Client 08/01/2019

In sum, George Tenreiro is an outstanding advocate and a fantastic client representative. In the beginning we met with several different lawyers about our immigration issues before contracting with George, but my wife gets vibes about people and knew that George was the right lawyer for us. Was she right! Since taking us on as clients George has been extremely hardworking, always accessible, very friendly, and deeply knowledgeable. My wife and I were suffering through the processes of her K1 and residency, but George made the process much easier, consistently answering our questions, putting our concerns to rest, and laughing with us sometimes through tears. We highly recommend him and will do so with our friends and family who need representation with immigration. With something so important, so close to the heart as our visa and residency journey George always acted with that respect in mind. He knows how fundamental this process is and has had deep compassion for us. Funny to say, but we found a lawyer who gives a damn. We have both worked with other lawyers before in other capacities both in the US and internationally yet we still can't get over how great our working relationship with George has been. We wish you, the reader, luck navigating the legal channels of USCIS and with George as your guide you will be successful. Without reservation, we will continue to work with George in the future while we tackle her citizenship. He literally made our dreams come true and we're indebted to him as now we can be together confidently. Thank you, George, for being the compassionate, knowledgeable, and friendly lawyer with the great vibe.

— Client 01/05/2018

George is a great attorney. My case was very difficult, because USCIS denied me the permanent green card ,because they thought that my marriage to my us citizen wife was a sham. They even tried to deport me . USCIS did not understand why certain things happened at certain dates during my marriage. George had to line up all the evidence in chronological order ,for USCIS to finally understand the whole story. He knew exactly what he had to do to get my case approved, due to his tremendous knowledge in immigration law. He made me feel at ease about my case and that definitely minimized my stress. When I would get nervous about my situation, he ALWAYS got back to me asap via his cell phone to reassure me that everything would be ok. He is very intelligent,organized and compassionate. I was able to call him anytime of the day and he would respond back to me asap. It is very rare to find an attorney like this . Most attorneys are ready to grab the money and leave you hanging. He was right by my side at every step of the way. He has a very good heart. God bless his soul. I won my case and now I am so happy. Now he is helping me gain my US citizenship. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone that needs help for their immigration case. Completely outstanding. Give him a try and you will definitely be pleased.

My brother had innocently lost his F-1 international student status in response to an error on the part of his school. This situation left him with without having legal status to remain in the United States so you can imagine his desperation. I worked diligently at trying to reconcile the situation for more than two years but was unable to make any progress whatsoever. However, all that changed when I was advised to seek the legal assistance of attorney George Tenreiro. Upon meeting George my brother and I immediately began to feel more relaxed and reassured, believing that my brother would be able to regain his international student status. George was extremely understanding, patient and clearly very experienced based on how informative he was when speaking with us. George quickly began working on my brother’s appeal and thanks to his expertise, my brother’s international student status was reinstated within a few short months. We are eternally grateful to have met George and cannot say enough about how well he treated us during a very stressful time in our life. Thank you, George!

After my sitdown interview with a USCIS agent for citizenship I was approved but unfortunately a supervisor could not reach a final decision about a prior conviction that occurred over 20 years ago. I was asked to submit certify court documents, dispositions etc. about seven months went by and still a final decision could not have been made. At this point Mr. Tenreiro was hired and within days he crafted what I thought was highly skilled package that was professionally organized with an affidavit and all the supporting documents. A few weeks after being submitted that supervisor made her final decision and now I'm awaiting my oath ceremony.

He guided us through all the steps, always providing lots of information and making sure to collect all of the documents that could possibly be required to have our petition approved. The result could not have been any different: our case was successfully approved! He kept us constantly informed of everything that was happening with our process from beginning to end. Overall we had a fantastic experience having him as our attorney.

— Client 10/29/2015

I had a privilege of having George represent for my LGBT asylum case for the past couple years or so. Not only did George successfully represent my case, but George was such an amazing, caring person and an "all-star" lawyer to work with. He's extremely dedicated to the cause and has a great degree of deep expertise in the realm of LGBT asylum that is simply not comparable to others that I've talked to. Moreover, throughout the lengthy (often painful due to the backlog situation) process, George was always there for me when I needed him, and at absolutely no point I was concerned about putting my life on the line — because I knew George had my back. Because I had George to represent my case, my life has been fundamentally changed. George helped me to completely change the trajectory of my life, and I truly feel like I owe him my life. Because lending an asylum case is such a big deal for many, your relationship with your lawyer transcends a simple client-laywer contract. George's expertise, dedication and caring personality simply compare with no other, and I'm extremely fortunate have George as my counsel as well as my life companion moving forward. I am humbled by the opportunity to work with him, and will be forever grateful for his help. TL; DR: He's the one. Don't even think about it twice.

— Client 08/27/2015

I have had the pleasure of working with George on a number of litigation matters over the years. George is one of the brightest, most articulate and professional attorneys I know.

George was extremely reliable and efficient throughout, and successfully guided me seamless through an immigration process that I'd otherwise expected to be a difficult one. He kept in constant contact whenever there were any updates, was thorough, patient, supportive, and took time to explain any issues that required clarification. I'm extremely grateful for George's service and would recommend him to anyone.

— Client 03/12/2015

I had the pleasure to have George Tenreiro represent me for my immigration case. Always very responsive when I needed some information, as well as very knowledgable and professional. Since the first meeting we had at his office until the day of my interview at the USCIS building about 3 months later. I am very thankful for his service and I would definitely recommend him to friends and family when needed.

George helped my husband and I file for an adjustment of status for my husband. From the start, George was quick to respond, extremely knowledgeable and professional in every way, and we really enjoyed meeting and dealing with him. I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking an adjustment of status, or any other legal matter. He is a true professional.

I read and followed him based upon articles and professional commentary he shared on current immigration events. I never expected to need his services but I actually did. Over the next four months he guided us in collecting and documenting all of the necessary forms and artifacts to support our spousal immigration petition. Leading up to the interview he spent time with us answering our questions and setting expectations. The interview went flawless. The officer noted that in all of her years she had never seen a better prepared spousal immigration case. That is in large part to the guidance and direction of George. And quite unexpectedly we had an immediate positive decision on our petition before we even left the interview. I wholeheartedly recommend George if you need immigration representation or any other area he covers for that matter as I can only imagine he's up to any task.

I am a former client of Mr. Tenreiro. I have heard of him from a very good friend of mine and praise the day I got to know him. He is very knowledgeable and very informative. Even at the times when I lost hope he was beside me in a very positive manner and didn't let me fall. Unbelievable but my asylum case was finalized, with a win, within 4 months I entered to the United States. I owe Mr Tenreiro my new life. I would highly recommend Mr Tenreiro because if you want to win you need a winner like him. Thank you once again.

i initially contacted George because my partner was Palestinian living in Lebanon and i wanted to bring him to the United States to be with me. initial contact was in February of 2013 so at first we considered a refugee visa. later on that summer DOMA was struck down by the Supreme Court so george IMMEDIATELY changed our status to a fiancee visa. that was in late August or 2013, and we already received pre-approval by mid October. George was so efficient in keeping me informed and providing us with all the documentation that was needed. he was extraordinary and everything happened so quickly, we were so amazed. by January of 2014 my partner was here living with me in NYC and 2 months later we were legally married. he has already received his temporary work permit and the green card is the next step in the process. we could not be more pleased with his professionalism and dedication to our case. we were so fortunate to find George and words can't express our gratitude. he is certainly amongst the best in his field, he will not disappoint you in any way.

Mr. Tenreiro is extremely professional, driven, passionate and detailed oriented, he helped me to adjust my immigration status case, from temporary worker to a Green Card holder status, that I am happily proud of. I do highly recommend him as an Attorney due to his capacity to plan, guide and the most important: overcome the most hard and delicate immigration cases, like mine. He is very organized, knowledgeable and patient with his clients and I can say that for sure, due to my language limitations. He also speaks Portuguese and that is a plus because helped me a lot! He always explains in details all the upcoming steps in order to make us secure and confident. Due to his Knowledge I was able to understand better all the steps of my case and how to proceed with all my doubts and paperwork issues. He and his staff are very efficient and they respond all your phones calls or e-mails in a very short time. I am very happy to have had him as a my attorney in the most challenging and hard time of my life. I will always be grateful for everything he has done for me. Thank you Mr. Tenreiro!

George Tenreiro is a capable and meticulous lawyer and attorney. You want someone who guides, counsels and updates you as you remain on your path to American citizenship. George, will do that. He has done it for me.

George took my case personally and created a space of trust between us where I felt safe and vulnerable enough to share my story. From then on, it was a piece of cake because he did all the worrying and I simply felt much lighter. Winning was pretty much a given because of how much better I felt after our first few encounters. He definitely did not disappoint performance wise as well as relationship wise.

It was a serendipitous occasion that I came across George's Facebook web page and contacted him with my immigration questions. From the get-go, George proved extremely knowledgeable and honest about my immigration concerns and the potential for success. I had a rather difficult case, involving a waiver of the two-year residency requirement, and George helped me obtain the waiver by clearly demonstrating to the USCIS and the US Department of State that I am eligible for it. Throughout the case, George was very thorough in preparing materials, advocating on my behalf, and providing guidance and advice whenever I needed his input. We mostly communicated by email and phone and George would respond to my calls and emails within an hour or a day at the most. I would not hesitate to recommend George as an immigration attorney to anyone who is seeking to live and work in the US, regardless of the complexity of your case.

I found about George in the most unlikely place to find a proper attorney--Facebook, but he ended up being someone who realize my dream of having a life in the United States. I came here as a student from China. I'm gay. I encountered George in late 2012. I had graduated from my American university, and have been working on OPT. I had an American boyfriend then, who's now my spouse. Before I turned to George, I had spoken and met with numerous attorneys, who had said no to all my possible options such as work visa, exchange visa, and asylum. Most of them claimed that since I was never physically harmed in China, asylum was out of the question. George, however, specializes in asylum for gay people, and he believed the required "fear for prosecution" of asylum should not only be based on physical harms, life and death. If someone gay can achieve a lot in the U.S., but is not able to in his or her home country because it's extremely conservative, it can be considered as another type of prosecution. That's basically the route we took. We filed my application in late January, 2013, and I was granted asylum in May, 2013 without the involvement of immigration court. Now that Section III of DOMA has been struck down, George is helping me with spousal green card application in California. Why did I hire him again? Think about it, he won me asylum--the most difficult immigration application; you can't find an immigration attorney better than that. Yes he's not well-known like some of the "activist" attorney who tried to charge me $400 for initial consultation, but George is truly confident, sincere and guess what, he gives free consultation. Like every other attorney, he could be a hot mess when he get busy, and sometimes you'd think he doesn't know much about simple stuff like OPT or student visa, but it's all because he actually specializes in something, that's what matters when it comes to finding a good immigration attorney, because every immigration attorney can handle a straight bi-national couple green card petition or a H-1B petition for people with proper degree, but not everyone of them can handle a challenging asylum case.

George provided us a good overview of what to expect at the start of the immigration process and then walked us through each step in a clear and organized manner. He was helpful and understanding when we had questions and when delays arose from USCIS. It is, however, important to keep track of upcoming deadlines and renewals yourself as he did not track them on our behalf (presumably on account of having to divide his time among them and there being long, somewhat unpredictable, delays from USCIS). We did feel his presence during the interview process was invaluable and we were very thankful for his guidance and preparation. It definitely helped the interview process go better. Overall, he was a knowledgeable, professional and easy to work with as an immigration lawyer. We would gladly retain his services again if the need arose.
