About

Charles Medina is a member of the New York, Washington State, and Philippine Bars, with a law practice that spans over 10 years. In the Seattle Area, we offer legal services mainly in immigration, estate planning and divorce. In other states, we offer exclusive legal services in immigration.1.   ImmigrationImmigration services often involve either relief from removal or application for benefits. If you are in removal proceedings, we will help you fight removal by finding the best relief available to you. Our attorney, Charles Medina, litigates complex immigration cases before Immigration Courts across the U.S., the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Charles defends individuals who face removal due to past criminal offenses, immigration fraud, visa violations and other unlawful conduct.If you are not in removal proceedings, we can help you apply for benefits with USCIS such as waivers of inadmissibility, reinstatement of student visa status, reinstatement of revoked petitions, and visas or green cards for investors, aliens of extraordinary ability, skilled workers, battered spouses, or family members.2.   Estate PlanningEstate planning is concerned with one main problem: what happens to one’s properties when one dies? Will there be taxes that need to be paid when these properties are transferred to the heirs or beneficiaries after a person dies? How does one minimize, or if possible, eliminate, taxes and probate costs so that their heirs will get the maximum value of these assets? How does one protect one’s assets from creditors? How does one protect the assets if the heirs have reckless spending habits? How does one make sure that one’s hard earned assets will be enjoyed by the one’s heirs and the next generation after?Once you have identified your concerns, we will help you achieve your goals in the most effective way possible within the limits provided by law. We will examine with you all your options and help you understand which options would accomplish your objectives and why some options would not.3.   DivorceDivorce is often something that no one planned or anticipated but when it becomes inevitable, divorce should be managed thoughtfully and carefully so that all parties involved can move on with their new lives. Sometimes, divorce is amicable and that makes the process easy for everyone.However, when divorce is contested, you would need all the help you can get. We will help you navigate a complex process so that you can protect your rights and interests. When you do it alone, sometimes strong emotions prevent you from making thoughtful decisions. We will provide you with the objective and rational advice you need so that you can get the best possible outcome under your particular circumstances. When we represent you, we give you peace of mind and the confidence to survive a difficult process.

Attorney Medina was referred to me by a friend when I was in a pinch and needed a lawyer to step in the middle of my divorce. he handled the details and difficulties in a professional and caring manner. I wish I could say that the divorce was easy - it was not - but with their legal guidance, I got the outcome I wanted.

I found Charles online, and was impressed with his candor, professionalism, and pragmatic approach in our initial consultation. While going through a challenging life event, the last thing I wanted was more drama or disappointment. Charles was reliable and honest, which made what could have been an expensive and miserable experience far more manageable. His timely updates and gentle reminders made it easy for me to carrying out my daily routine, knowing what is needed for the next steps and when those steps need to happen. His fees were pleasantly reasonable, and he honored his commitment throughout the process. Thank you, Charles, for being a trusted source of legal advice and for helping me go through a difficult situation with dignity. I wish you much success!

Had a relatively complicated issue with my prior conviction and needed to fix it before I move forward with my green card application. Mr. Medina explained how immigration law applies to it. Very smooth experience, glad I got a chance to work with him on this!

Charles did a great job putting together the green card application for me. He was really responsive and was able to turn everything around within a few weeks, even though it was around the holidays. I liked that he was upfront about outlining the fees, so I knew that there wouldn't be any surprises later. Would recommend if you need immigration help!

Excellent immigration attorney! They made me feel confident that they would take care of everything. Indeed, they kept me updated throughout my case and they have made sure I understood the process. Mr. Medina is very straight forward and I like that about him. So far I have had a very good experience with the law office and I highly recommend them.

Was recommended to Charles through a friend for my divorce case. Charles was very thorough with outlining our document, patient as we gathered the necessary information, communicative through calls and emails, and efficient with finalizing our paperwork. His fees for this process were reasonable and fair.
