EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I'm very surprised about all this bad reviews! He is an excellent lawyer!!YES VERY BUSY &&HARD TO GET A HOLD OFF BUT THE BEST!!He has helped my family and I AM THANKFUL for that! From dropping false charges, to taking out a brother and law with felony from ICE and list goes on!! I am grateful with Armando for helping family and friends of mine!!! And yes nothing in this world is perfect the secretary he has are not the BEST like him, you do need money, you do need patience!!! It is worth the waits, the holds, even hanging up on you! At the end its all worth it, because he does a GREAT JOB and keeps you from being separated from you're loved ones!!

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

I hired Mr Martinez on February 2012 for my husbands criminal and immigration cases. Mu husband was in jail for 2 false charges of domestic violence against his ex wife which which she falsely accused him of. Mr Martinez took my case paid his criminal bonds and got him released from bexar county and transfered to pearsall ice detetion center because he had an ice hold. Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me. He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.

Terrible! No communication at all. Court is this week. Has not met with my family member to discuss anything. The appointment he had he was out sick. Seems to have abandoned him after bail release. Hope that Armando shows up to court.

My family and I have had the worst possible experience with Armando Martinez from threats from him to report my parents and get them deported to no calls or updates in 5 years to simply his office not knowing anything about immigration or what’s currently going on or knowing when they set up appointments for Armando. His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.

Terrible! No communication at all. Court is this week. Has not met with my family member to discuss anything. The appointment he had he was out sick. Seems to have abandoned him after bail release. Hope that Armando shows up to court.

My family and I have had the worst possible experience with Armando Martinez from threats from him to report my parents and get them deported to no calls or updates in 5 years to simply his office not knowing anything about immigration or what’s currently going on or knowing when they set up appointments for Armando. His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I'm very surprised about all this bad reviews! He is an excellent lawyer!!YES VERY BUSY &&HARD TO GET A HOLD OFF BUT THE BEST!!He has helped my family and I AM THANKFUL for that! From dropping false charges, to taking out a brother and law with felony from ICE and list goes on!! I am grateful with Armando for helping family and friends of mine!!! And yes nothing in this world is perfect the secretary he has are not the BEST like him, you do need money, you do need patience!!! It is worth the waits, the holds, even hanging up on you! At the end its all worth it, because he does a GREAT JOB and keeps you from being separated from you're loved ones!!

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

I hired Mr Martinez on February 2012 for my husbands criminal and immigration cases. Mu husband was in jail for 2 false charges of domestic violence against his ex wife which which she falsely accused him of. Mr Martinez took my case paid his criminal bonds and got him released from bexar county and transfered to pearsall ice detetion center because he had an ice hold. Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me.

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

I hired Mr Martinez on February 2012 for my husbands criminal and immigration cases. Mu husband was in jail for 2 false charges of domestic violence against his ex wife which which she falsely accused him of. Mr Martinez took my case paid his criminal bonds and got him released from bexar county and transfered to pearsall ice detetion center because he had an ice hold. Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me. He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.

Terrible! No communication at all. Court is this week. Has not met with my family member to discuss anything. The appointment he had he was out sick. Seems to have abandoned him after bail release. Hope that Armando shows up to court.

My family and I have had the worst possible experience with Armando Martinez from threats from him to report my parents and get them deported to no calls or updates in 5 years to simply his office not knowing anything about immigration or what’s currently going on or knowing when they set up appointments for Armando. His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.

Terrible! No communication at all. Court is this week. Has not met with my family member to discuss anything. The appointment he had he was out sick. Seems to have abandoned him after bail release. Hope that Armando shows up to court.

My family and I have had the worst possible experience with Armando Martinez from threats from him to report my parents and get them deported to no calls or updates in 5 years to simply his office not knowing anything about immigration or what’s currently going on or knowing when they set up appointments for Armando. His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I'm very surprised about all this bad reviews! He is an excellent lawyer!!YES VERY BUSY &&HARD TO GET A HOLD OFF BUT THE BEST!!He has helped my family and I AM THANKFUL for that! From dropping false charges, to taking out a brother and law with felony from ICE and list goes on!! I am grateful with Armando for helping family and friends of mine!!! And yes nothing in this world is perfect the secretary he has are not the BEST like him, you do need money, you do need patience!!! It is worth the waits, the holds, even hanging up on you! At the end its all worth it, because he does a GREAT JOB and keeps you from being separated from you're loved ones!!

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

I hired Mr Martinez on February 2012 for my husbands criminal and immigration cases. Mu husband was in jail for 2 false charges of domestic violence against his ex wife which which she falsely accused him of. Mr Martinez took my case paid his criminal bonds and got him released from bexar county and transfered to pearsall ice detetion center because he had an ice hold. Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me. He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience.

Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me. He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.

Terrible! No communication at all. Court is this week. Has not met with my family member to discuss anything. The appointment he had he was out sick. Seems to have abandoned him after bail release. Hope that Armando shows up to court.

My family and I have had the worst possible experience with Armando Martinez from threats from him to report my parents and get them deported to no calls or updates in 5 years to simply his office not knowing anything about immigration or what’s currently going on or knowing when they set up appointments for Armando. His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I'm very surprised about all this bad reviews! He is an excellent lawyer!!YES VERY BUSY &&HARD TO GET A HOLD OFF BUT THE BEST!!He has helped my family and I AM THANKFUL for that! From dropping false charges, to taking out a brother and law with felony from ICE and list goes on!! I am grateful with Armando for helping family and friends of mine!!! And yes nothing in this world is perfect the secretary he has are not the BEST like him, you do need money, you do need patience!!! It is worth the waits, the holds, even hanging up on you! At the end its all worth it, because he does a GREAT JOB and keeps you from being separated from you're loved ones!!

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

His paralegals have been telling me for 5 years that my court won’t be scheduled until 2019 but yet I called 3 weeks ago and told me my case had been closed since 2016. Did I receive a call or anything at all to let me know about this? No. I don’t thing his paralegals watch the news at that considering they knew nothing about the current daca situation that’s going on across the country. Since when I said I couldn’t renew due to it being expired they simply said “really? Why not?”. Whatever you do, do not hire Armando Martinez.

This lawyer is working on a current case for me, I have tried calling a billion times and no answer and when you call his office they hang up on you. I Will update this rating once something happens hopefully my relative does not get deported!

EXCELLENT ATTORNEY!! IMMIGRATION SPECIALIST for real! Got our man out in ONE WEEK ON ILLEGAL DETENTION. This man takes an assignment and he gets on it immediately and makes things happen. Trust him. If he's not returning your calls but has taken your case don't worry about it. He has a solo practice and our experience was he wasn't able to answer the phone because he was working the case. Tue morning, 4/9, ICE illegally knocked on door at MCs home in southern Travis County and arrested him. We immed began working the system to find him. I finally spoke with the Austin ICE Cage agent Wednesday morning. She indicated that MC had been a street hookup in Burnet County (on the northern edge of Travis County - Travis County is huge) and he'd been brought to Travis from Burnet County Wed, 4/10, morning. ICE agent was changing narrative of illegal arrest. Mr. Armando Martinez was hired morning MC was detained, WEDNESDAY, 4/10. We were in a panic and not hearing back immediately from Mr. Martinez with updates etc, we went ahead and spoke with another attorney. This other immigration specialist attorney asked for loads of documentation to even begin getting their presentation together. It seemed legitimate enough to us. Unbeknownst to us, Mr. Armando Martinez was making things happen at the South Texas Detention Center in Pearsall, TX, apparently without requiring additional materials from us. On THURSDAY, 4/18, MC WAS RELEASED from the STDC in Pearsall, TX. Thank you soooo much sir. Best Regards, Zan

I'm very surprised about all this bad reviews! He is an excellent lawyer!!YES VERY BUSY &&HARD TO GET A HOLD OFF BUT THE BEST!!He has helped my family and I AM THANKFUL for that! From dropping false charges, to taking out a brother and law with felony from ICE and list goes on!! I am grateful with Armando for helping family and friends of mine!!! And yes nothing in this world is perfect the secretary he has are not the BEST like him, you do need money, you do need patience!!! It is worth the waits, the holds, even hanging up on you! At the end its all worth it, because he does a GREAT JOB and keeps you from being separated from you're loved ones!!

Mr. Martinez took my case for my husband. I was in fear that he was going to get deported. Within a week of visiting him and calling him, he got my husband out safely. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Mr. Martinez has helped my family a lot. My husband got a DWI and was also on immigration hold. Mr. Martinez got him out of county court with no more time in jail and no probation. My husband has his immigration court Tuesday and we will see what happens. His office takes a while to answer emails, but he is Great. If he can't help you, he will tell you right then and there. He won't take your money like other attorneys do.

I hired Mr Martinez on February 2012 for my husbands criminal and immigration cases. Mu husband was in jail for 2 false charges of domestic violence against his ex wife which which she falsely accused him of. Mr Martinez took my case paid his criminal bonds and got him released from bexar county and transfered to pearsall ice detetion center because he had an ice hold. Once there he requested a court date for a bond hearing and received one for $7000.00 I came up with $3000.00 and Mr Martinez put down the other $4000.00 on word that he would received payment from previous ice bond. With in 3 weeks my husband was released. Mr Martinez still help my husband on his criminal cases once released we brought him evidence that all charges were false and he help him fight cases in court and got all criminal cases dismissed. Once his charges were drop Mr Martinez got our I130 in and I received approval one year later... Yes he is very busy attorney and hard to reach at times but overall he is great at what he does..

My family and I hired Mr. Martínez in 2008. We hired him because while incarcerated two different people inside the prisons gave me experiences about him. The people who recommended him did not know each other and they were from different prisons and cities. One in Dayton and another in San Antonio. I had been transfered a few times during my two year incarceration. He was also handling a girl´s case from the San Antonio federal prison ICE detainees where I was in she was not one of the two who recommended Mr. Martinez. He got her bond lowered down to 700 dollars for me was unheard of. I had already payed 100 dollars to one lawyer for counseling done over the phone. He was famous for his radio show in Houston in Spanish and he said that I was lucky I even had a bond since I was a felon. My bond was about 11,000 dollars and you have to pay all of it not 10% like in normal jails. The first lawyer said ¨pay the bond now before they take your bond away in the court hearing and then call me back.¨ I said I wanted to hire him to lower the bond but he said that they would take away my bond. I really had faith that I could get it lowered plus there was no way we could get that money. We are low income. I had studied in the law library and I learnt my case wasn't moral turpitude and I had faith that my bond could be lowered. All I wanted was to see my family even if it was only 6 months before I was deported if need be so I only wanted my bond lowered. I prepared a very detailed letter to Armando asking him to represent me. My mom called him but could never get a hold of him. He never did get to his phone but he showed up last minute to my hearing. I really thought I had no lawyer until that day. I had not payed him a penny yet. He postponed the court for two weeks I think and he said trough the TV because I had TV court. He said he would visit me later and he showed me my letter. He took a few days to see me. He then said that it was posible to lower my bond and that he would go to Houston to pick up the money from my mom. He said he wanted to take a vacation there with his kids anyway. He met my mom in a coffee shop and mom payed him 1,500 dollars. He explained the case to my mom. Later his assistant talked to me about preparing my case. He lowered my bond down to 4,500 dollars. All the ICE officers would say is that I would be deported because of my felony I knew that my felony was not moral turpitude. Armando agreed. I was given Voluntary departure with no bar. After you have departed from the US you are supposed to get your money back for the bond it took alot longer than what was said. I can't remember. Yes, it has always been hard to get a hold of him and yes I got my money back. I just had patience with him and kept calling about it. He said I can be back in the US in 6 months but the only way is if I get married with a US citizen. He said I could visit with his assitance. I am kind of sad about what the others have said here but all I could share is my expereince. Another thing that I liked is that even though once I was released from ICE I waited what seemed to be a while outside ICE. I remember with fondness how one Young ICE agent made fun of me becuase my lawyer hadn't picked me up and I just couldn't believe I was out. I didn't care I was happy. I was picked up by his assistant and she bought me a Sonic Meal and drove me to the grayhound since I lived in Houston she payed my trip and gave me 20 dollars. He interviewed me to see if there was any way to get legalized but I knew there wasn't since I was not in love and in a relationship with anyone. I don't have kids either. I´m here because I wanted to find his phone number again and I saw these stories and I owe it to him to atleast share my experience. I also saw him lower one bond for free for an abandoned Young person in Immigration that had not commited a crime and had finished high school and had not been in Mexico since 6 months old, but she could not pay.

Worst lawyer ever !!!!! Don't waste your time with him he doesn't communicates, you will have chase him to have an update. He will only take your MONEY and he won't do anything with your case..... Later he will ask you for more money. He's a joke and a liar.
