CLIENT REVIEWS
I can’t express how thankful I am for Patricia M. Corrales and everything she has done for me and my family. She’s been by our side for years — she’s the reason I was able to get DACA back in 2012, and now, thanks to her dedication and expertise, I became a permanent resident just a few months ago!
Patricia didn’t just change my life — she changed my entire family’s future. With her help, my family also received their residency, something we once only dreamed about. Her knowledge of immigration law is unmatched, and she handled every part of our cases with care, precision, and professionalism.
What really sets Patricia apart is how much she truly cares. She fights for her clients like they’re family, and she never gives up. She made an overwhelming and emotional process feel manageable and gave us hope when we needed it most.
Thank you, Patricia, for your years of support, your incredible legal skill, and for helping us build a future we never thought possible. You are truly a blessing, and we will always be grateful.
My experience at the Law Offices of Patricia M. Corrales was a very positive one. My mother had a immigration case for legalization that was done incorrectly by a paralegal at some other location in east LA. Patricia was recommended to us by my uncle, which helped him get the green card.We made the appointments necessary to come in contact with her. At the consultation, She was very blunt and straight to the point, which personally I really enjoy that type of attitude because you don't waste too much time. We came to the agreement that she was going to have to start a brand new case that she was going to fill out the paper work. We then proceeded to continue with her service. To make it brief, she told us it will take about 6 months - 1 yr to hear a response from immigration, mind you this application was submitted right before Trumps administration came into office around December. The processing time was happening during the Trumps admin. The moral of the story is that thanks to Patricia expertise my mother is now a United States legal resident. In other words, I definitely recommend you go to her for legal services.
Patricia was not only incredibly helpful with all the paperwork I needed to become a U.S. citizen, but she also stepped in when I truly needed it the most. I thought everything was fine before my interview, but to my surprise, an issue came up. Patricia immediately jumped in, using her vast knowledge to help me navigate the situation and avoid what could have been a serious setback. I am so grateful for the support she provided throughout the entire process. She coached me every step of the way and really knows her stuff. I couldn't have asked for better guidance, and I will always be thankful for everything she's done.

I highly recommend the Law Office of Patricia M Corrales, if you need representation in your immigration case. She is very honest and very professional. We had a very difficult case from the beginning and no other attorney wanted to help us. When we came to her, she carefully reviewed my father's case and agreed to help us. It has been a challenging case with its ups and downs but despite all of that, she has been there every step of the way and has been working very hard as has her team to help my father with his case. She really takes her time to review the case and explore what options we have or how we should address certain issues that may arise along the way. My family and I are very thankful for all the work and dedication that Attorney Patricia M Corrales and her team have done and continue to do in my father's case. Thank you so much from the Rivera Family!!
Highly recommend the Law Office of Patricia M. Corrales. Very sincere and honest, she said she would be able to take my dad’s criminal and immigration case and she gave us the best results anyone can possibly ask for which was receiving my dads’ residency card. We had gone to a few other lawyers that were not able to do anything for him and we are so thankful that we were recommended to Patricia M. Corrales. She has so much knowledge, reviewed my dad’s case thoroughly and was very precise and sincere throughout the process. She will keep you informed and give you the honest truth and will most definitely take that worry off your shoulders like she has done for my family and I.
If you need a rock star lawyer, a professional that will tell you how it as, no wasting your time or her crews. Patricia fought to vacate a prior conviction. Before I came to her i honestly had lost hope for the mean time. Seeing no real change with immigration laws. She worked for DHS. Patricia knows! Next step declaration!

I hired Patricia for a few different services. I had 2 prior convictions. She helped me vacate both convictions. She also helped me get my green card (which was not easy with my type of convictions) I travel to Mexico about 2 weeks ago and on my way back I was detained. They paroled me and send me to deferred inspection. I was in fear that they would put me into deportation proceedings. But I hired Patricia and she saved me once again! Now I have my citizenship application pending which she also helped me out with. I can’t wait to be a citizen and live my life in peace and prosperity. Thank you Patty!
Ms. Corrales and her office are truly exceptional, and I higly recommend them! In 2019, my father was detained by immigration, which drastically altered our lives. As a high schooler at the time, I witnessed the immense suffering my family endured while desperately seeking answers and legal assistance to bring our father home. We went through several lawyers during this tumultuous period, all of whom proved unhelpful and only drained what little resources we had left.
Then, we were fortunate enough to encounter Ms. Corrales. From the outset, she showed genuine concern for our family's plight and provided unwavering honesty regarding my father's situation. She wasted no time in offering us clear guidance, answering our questions, and presenting viable options. In our hearts, we firmly believe that Ms. Corrales was a divine blessing during our darkest hours. She worked tirelessly to secure my father's release, and since 2019, she has remained steadfast in advocating for his case, never once wavering in her commitment. SEE FULL REVIEW ON GOOGLE LINK.

Patricia is AMAZING!! She is an excellent attorney who takes her job seriously! She is confident, knowledgeable, straight forward, honest, dependable!! She was the only one that was able to get the job done. Out of the numerous immigration attorney's that my mom consulted they all kept saying she couldn't become a US citizen but with Patricia my mom was able to finally become a US citizen! The entire process was smooth because of her and her excellent staff. Any questions we had, her and her staff would always answer and made us feel comfortable. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!
