While handling my case Maria was incredibly professional. During every step of our interaction she kept clear and prompt communication . If I had any questions she would either call me, email me, or she would find time for me to meet with her even with an already busy schedule. I have nothing but good things to say about Maria. If you have any questions about Immigration or Criminal Defense I would highly recommend you give her a call.
I had a very complicated case that i presented to Maria Miller. Maria Miller was not phased by the case she was confident that she would do everything possible to work it out and provide the best outcome. My case had a criminal element that deterred other lawyers, but Maria took it on and not only got me the outcome we went for and more. She is professional, courteous and truly cares about the clients. Maria is a lawyer that i would recommend to everyone i know. And i am blessed to have her as my attorney. She is always there to assist and to to put you at ease about this rather confusing legal process. Thank you very much Maria Miller.
My husband and I were introduced to Martin Law through a family referral and as a result we met and began working with Maria Miller (Trafton). Our immigration case was incredibly complicated, and Maria was always willing to talk through our options. Going it alone was not a possibility, and my husband and I were grateful to have Maria help guide us. With different angles to consider, and because I’m an individual that likes to understand things step by step, Maria was always willing to break things down for us. Because our case was so complex, it was easy to feel overwhelmed. However, following many different hurdles and law changes, and nearly 5 years of waiting, my husband now has his US permanent residency. Maria was essential in gaining this. She encouraged us to have patience and empathized with us when things were at a standstill. She was thorough through each petition or waiver. She read each statement and gave ideas of how to make it better. She was willing to go the extra mile. Beyond this, she is responsive, very responsive. If I had a question, I knew I could ask her and get my answer. Knowing we had her in on our side gave us both peace of mind. As mentioned, our case was complicated and required incredible attention to detail, and Maria never missed a beat. During and since the end of our lengthy immigration process, we’ve referred friends and family to Maria, and we’ll continue to do so. The immigration system can at times resemble a maze and having Maria navigate as your lawyer will be to your advantage. We highly recommend Maria Miller for your immigration needs.
We worked with Maria to go through the green card process. To us it seemed daunting but Maria made it very clear, easy, and as seamless as possible. It was so helpful to know we had an expert working on everything on our behalf and that we didn't have to figure out everything on our own. She also helped thoroughly prep us for the interview and her being with us for the interview was an added comfort. She always responded to our questions and updates quickly. Most importantly we felt she personally cared that we had a positive outcome.
Maria handled everything needed during our immigration case after we did some pre-work up front. She met with us a few times to make sure everything was complete, prepared us for our interview and attended the day of to make sure everything went alright. The amount of paperwork she processed was so thorough our interview went very smooth. I'm very happy with our decision to hire Maria. Our stress level was very low knowing we had her taking care of everything.
We are very grateful to Maria Trafton for her help with our immigration case. She was exceptionally knowledgeable and responsive to all of our questions throughout the process, particularly in today’s current anti-immigration political climate.
