About
I was disciplined for failing to complete my mandatory continuing legal education requirements in 2013. All lawyers are required to participate in a specified amount of ongoing legal education and I did not complete mine that year. I am not proud of that and I’m embarrassed that the State Bar chose to discipline me publicly for it, but it had nothing to do with client care or my competence as a lawyer.I have been practicing immigration law since 1994. During that time I have had the privilege of assisting companies, families, and individuals with a wide array of immigration issues, from family visas and the citizenship process to student and business visas. I have always loved helping people and practicing immigration law has allowed me to do what I love every day.

I used Nelson & Associates for my difficult case and a series of challenging situations with immigration. Atty. Nelson is very knowledgeable and finally got my case resolved and now I got my GC. His paralegal Tonette was very helpful until the end. She was always on top of my case and always made prompt follow ups with USCIS. She is very particular with details which made dealing with immigration requests easier to answer because there were no surprises. Choosing Nelson and Associates is one of the best decisions I made here in America. Highly recommended!
After being denied our I-130 - we went to Nelson & Associates for help. They were so wonderful and helpful that our case was processed very quickly and we now have our green card in hand! The USCIS agent we interviewed with mentioned that our attorney did an excellent job organizing our documents and making sure we had everything in order... it made everything happen so smoothly! I recommend Attorney Nelson to anyone seeking advice or even representation going through the immigration process.
The best immigration lawyer we have ever dealt with. They jumped through hoops for us. Frank is very knowledgeable and was able to pull us through some tough times. Tonette kept us informed with everything we needed to know. Thank you guys for everything. We are very satisfied customers indeed!
Since 2008 Nelson and Associates is assisting me to work legally here in the US.... With their help and expertise I got my Working visa approved and now the Green Card. Thanks to Landi, Nallely and Andrew...you guys are very helpful and professional..
Easy going, easy to talk to, great staff, answers your questions without delay, puts you at ease, realistic, likes kids, and a jokester!!! Bonus! I will refer anybody with inmigration issues to him, hands down. On a serious note, very pleased with the way he handled my case and how quickly everything was resolved to my complete satisfaction.
I was their client since 2002 from day 1 when I had H1 application till I got my Green Card last March 2012. I would recommend someone who need help regarding immigration matters.
Nelson & Associates has been handling my immigration case from the very first step of acquiring my immigration needs through employment. At present, I got my H1B & its extension for 2 yrs. & 11 mos. My I140 Petition is also approved, just waiting for the priority date to be processed. What else can I ask for? Though the Staff & me communicate most on emails & phone, they are very responsive & willing to assist me in every possible way. Definitely recommended...
With so many lawyers out there, it's hard to choose who to trust with your immigration needs. I have been a client of Atty. Nelson since 2002 and I must say, I was very satisfied with the service I have received from them. They are very knowledgeable, helpful and patient. I have referred some friends and will definitely continue to do so!
I recommend Franklin Nelson and associates. His team is very professional, reliable and friendly. I got quick response, helpful and informative advise whenever I inquire. Special thanks to my paralegal, Miss Marlou Balbuena who handled my case.
You will not go wrong with this guy and his friendly staff. Thank you for make my life easier, and special thanks for my paralegal Mr. Landi Guidetti.
