Santa Maria Law Company is a boutique company that provides legal services to new immigrants from all over the world.
I met founder and lawyer Mark for the first time, and in March I gave a presentation on the new immigration policy at the California International Organization. His presentation was concise, relevant, and professional. His company was completely different in several ways through our unique business cards and our conversation. First of all, Mr. Mark had very solid expertise in immigration laws and he studied legal affairs until his doctorate. Second, he has a real passion for empowering immigrants, and is revealed by his extensive English education experience and multilingual leadership. Finally, as a religious-based company, Mark and his team acted on the spirit of service. They spoke to our questions with patience, kindness and sincerity, one by one.
1 After a week, I met Mark again at his office in the downtown area of San Francisco. The advice mark gave me specific advice based on my background and needs. More importantly, he gave me education and stimulation to educate, inspire, and motivate me to do something different than the lawyer I've met before.
When I dealt with the difficult visa situation, the presence and teaching of Mark made a big difference. I strongly recommend him to any customer. Even without the immediate legal requirements, I think he will help me with my consultation as well.

While Manan was preparing to return to Manila, I was worried that two reasons might cause a big problem.
First, her passport expires and must be applied from the beginning. The problem is that the information on her birth certificate does not match the content of her old passport. There is also no format for IDs.
2 The last time I stayed in Japan, I lost my position.
I visited a shop in the Philippines and brought a newspaper to find out who has an ID Immigration Bureau I also searched using Google. In the end, I elected five lawyers, I emailed you about my two problems.
That day, I spoke with several Attys, including Atty Marc. He called me at the end of today and said he would help me. I ended up going with him. The telephone was his way. Most of the conversations with
Atty Marc were sent by email because they could be reviewed anytime back. There was also a phone call between 2 and 3. (Bonus: I've never visited his office and it's very convenient for me. Because I don't like driving a car, or taking tits! )
The most favorite thing about Ati Mark is that he pushed it back if it really doesn't need it and told me what to do. For example, I asked her to accompany me to get Manan's new passport. Because it takes time, he says that it is not necessary politely, and is allocated to time, so I can easily do it just by putting out a big bill. He gave us valuable advice. (We arrived early in line first, and explained the role of the embassy, the role of the embassy, the understanding of the situation, and how we can be honest.) He also emailed instructions on the documents we needed Before you go to the embassy, create a link to the form, FAQ, etc. And many useful tips.
He was right. The rows of embassies are horrible. It was like going to a popular concert, so we were very happy to arrive earlier than usual. However, since the birth certificate we owned is not written on a valid paper, we have to go there twice. So I had to sort it again. It ended twice at noon. Even the guards at the embassy were surprised how fast we were. If Attie Mark has to go together twice, it will be expensive. And the embassy staff on the right side of Attie Mark had a great understanding, emphasis and knowledge of how to deal with her situation.
As soon as I got her passport, I made a reservation Manan's flight. I booked a Monday flight without realizing that it was necessary to check in on Sunday night. Sunday night! ! In the worst case, if you need to change the date, you must pay the airline extra. Wow. I emailed Atie Mark and told him when I booked a Monday flight and when...I don't want to say, "I won't work on weekends." Instead, he answered: "Good. I'll be waiting for you at 9:30 p.m. on Sunday." I did it. Who's going to do that?
Two weeks before I left, he sent me a link to the restudy ("Know your rights"), which was very helpful.
The very first day I met at the airport. Aty Mark came with his wife. He gave Manan a pocket card "Know your rights" in case she needed help.
That was safe. It was what we wanted. We carried the sails in full swing. Nevertheless, Attie Mark really looked at Manan and was always watching her in the Immigration until she entered the Immigration Office. He asked her to make a phone call to check, and he offered to stay longer, but I can tell he would be fine if he spoke on the phone.
Not only a gentle lawyer, but also a time at the airport. Email, phone, pointer, and advice are all free. Thank you for your help. And for not breaking us :-). This was a stress-free journey for us.
Atty Marc is highly recommended for immigration needs. I'll use it again if I have the opportunity.

Mark and his experience with the company have repeated what was said in other reviews. From an academic point of view, Marc is the Immigration Bureau and Amp; We have been very generous in sharing knowledge and expertise on. Small Business Law Including Students and Recent Graduates Since he takes time to divide things into basic levels, everyone can understand what and get overwhelming information. Walk away with confidence in getting started, in making the best decisions, or at least in knowing where to ask for help.
Mark and his team are also good at hiring interns and stepping on their own feet. At the law firm in Santa Maria! They really put others' interests at the top.

He and his team gave me all the instructions and solved my visa problem.
Mark and his team have no words to say how lucky and happy I was.

Mark, who is professional, polite, knowledgeable, and can enjoy dating, has greatly helped us with our marriage visa.
I met Mark when I gave a presentation to ESL students about anything they could do, including immigration, visas, green cards, and USCIS. I couldn't go first when I needed visa help!

Mark is very professional. He is committed to our community. Recently, Mark and his team held a free workshop at Seramonte del Rey High School, teaching the immigrant community about rights and available resources, and providing the latest news. The presentation was held in English, Chinese and Spanish. He is a member of the organization of our community.

The MARC helped us to configure the LLC. He regularly shared his schedule and expectations, and gave us a great piece of work, which made this process easier for us. I plan to use Santa Maria's law firm for similar work in the future. In particular, Mark's excellent attitude makes him happy to work seriously. Very recommended.

I recommend a law firm in Santa Maria. Mark is a dedicated immigration lawyer who fights for you and your family. He is very knowledgeable about immigration laws and will help you if necessary. I enjoyed working with Mark and experienced his high professionalism.

I am a volunteer of the Western Workers Association. We are entirely volunteers, non-corporate communities of unknown workers based in West Auckland. In recent months, we have worked with Mark and his team to provide important legal advice to unqualified members and members who work to gain status. Mark is very helpful and sensitive. Information sessions are very useful and helpful, helping members in their families and communities that we can continue to work together to create permanent changes. All that is happening in this regime, we need allies like Mark on our side, we must endure and grow. He introduced us to other lawyers and helped us to seek more important legal support. They are very interested in what is happening in the community and in the country, and they are creating a material herd to change it. I recommend the best to Marc and his team on their commitment, compassion, skills and abilities to support people in immigration issues.

"This must be the best immigration. Mark Santa Maria and his team are very professional and very efficient. I don't employ anyone. If you need a large immigration corporation, you should hire this company as an immigration corporation. I recommend!"

Marc helped me apply for a fiancee visa and green card. He was very professional and learned. Besides, he was very kind and patient in answering all our questions. I received my fiancee's visa and green card smoothly. He did all the processes for us. I strongly recommend his legal services to others.

Mark and his team are very knowledgeable and willing to help. He is always willing to answer questions and is very interested in providing quality advice. Before I met him, I spoke to a lawyer in the Immigration Bureau, but my case was completely hopeless. My O1 visa procedure was approved after a few months due to his hard work and endless work. We met regularly, including weekends. Mark has a lot of expertise in immigration issues and his team and he made it easier for me to get a visa. I highly recommend him!

I volunteer at WSWA in West Auckland. We asked Mark Santa Maria and Julio López to present basic rights and the actions of illegal people to do when faced with deportation or ICE. This presentation provided information and detailed information on the various statuses that can be obtained. They clarified the questions and thoroughly explained the new laws to be issued at that time. I appreciated the role of Mark in his last hand, as Mark really helped me understand the means to do when facing ICE. The law firm also provides multilingual support for Spanish, Tagalog, Chinese (Mandarin) and Vietnamese speakers. I'm looking forward to working with you in the future.
