Would highly recommend him to anyone with a tough deportation or criminal case.“My brother had a criminal record, including drug cases and when immigration picked him up we thought it was over. Mr. Obregon was very well prepared for the trial and after a long day of many witnesses, the Immigration Judge stopped my brother's deportation and gave him a new lease on life. He now has his green card and my brother's bringing the law firm his citizenship application. My only complaint is that his office is always full of clients and you have to wait a while to see him because he's so busy. Would highly recommend him to anyone with a tough deportation or criminal case. He was my lawyer before my brother's and helped me a couple of times with my criminal cases.”

Gracias a Dios y al trabajo realizado por ellos, ahora estamos compartiendo la compañía de mi sobrina aquí en New York.“Los abogados de Musa Obregon y asociados me ayudaron en un caso para mi sobrina quien vino de Centro America huyendo de una situación particular. Los encargados de mi caso fueron el Abogado Phillip Velez y el paralegal Cesar Mejia, quienes hicieron un excelente trabajo, a pesar de las dificultades que se tuvo con los oficiales de deportación y con la corte de inmigración en Texas ellos lograron una fianza bastante accesible para nosotros. Gracias a Dios y al trabajo realizado por ellos, ahora estamos compartiendo la compañía de mi sobrina aquí en New York. Se los recomiendo.”

The man can do what other lawyers only dream about.“Terrific lawyer!! Mr. Obregon will go where other lawyers fear to tread and comes back victorious!! Just got my cousin out on a major drug case where immigration placed an ice hold. Everybody said it couldn't be done in Varick street immigration NY. My cousin is living proof what a wonderful, dedicated and fearless lawyer Mr. Musa-obregon is! Kudos to him & his staff. He knows what he says and says what he knows! I can not recommend him enough we are truly ecstatic. Now my cousin can fight his Manhattan drug case from freedom and save himself jail and a deportation. Would I recommend him? Yes, yes and absolutely yes! The man can do what other lawyers only dream about.”
He's always been right on the money.“I have only the best things to say about attorney Michael Musa-Obregon. He's very smart, honest, and people just love him. This is the fourth time I had to use him and he's always been right on the money. Yes I would highly recommend him. Just make sure you come in early. There are always many people looking for his help at the office. And call ahead so they know you made an appointment because it gets very busy.”
Everything you told us was true even when every other lawyer said it couldn't be done!“I am very happy today since Mr. Obregon's office just got my husband out of Hudson County NJ on a criminal case AND an immigration hold. My husband was in a fight and they called the cops and he was charged with assault. Mr. Obregon's lawyers reduced the bail from $35,000 to $3,000. We paid the bail and immigration took him. then Musa-Obregon went to immigration court and got him out on an immigration bond. Now he's out on both cases and can fight the cases from the outside. We are so thrilled! We really thought it was the end until somebody recommended us to him. People kept saying that immigration was going to ship him out to Ecuador where we are from-but it wasn't true. Thank you very, very much Mr. Obregon!! Everything you told us was true even when every other lawyer said it couldn't be done! God bless you and your family. Anyone looking for a good criminal and immigration lawyer should call him. He will tell it to you like it is”

Once you meet this man, you will understand his passion and dedication to you and your case.“Michael Musa-Obregon is the most knowledgeable, kind and caring attorney I ever had the pleasure to work with.

Whether it's the afternoon or 4 in the morning, attorney Musa-Obregon will answer his phone to help get your loved one out of jail or just to answer a simple question.

Michael, thank you for all that you have done for me and hundreds of your clients. You are truly one of a kind!”
I am blessed and I highly recommend this law firm to anyone struggling with their immigration process.“I greatly appreciate the handwork and high professionalism demonstrated by Musa-Obregon. It's dedicated staff through all steps of my VAWA application which was approved. When I thought all was lost they came to my rescue a time when I was really depressed and torn apart. I am blessed and I highly recommend this law firm to anyone struggling with their immigration process. Again, I must say THANK YOU to the entire staff at Musa-Obregon and especially to Ms. Oraa for being a tower of strength to my future.”
If you are looking for an experienced reliable lawyer, you are in good hands with Musa-Obregon“I have a very complicated case that some lawyers even rejected or others asked for very high rates but when I went to Mr. Michael with no hope at all, he found I have a very strong case and not only he accepted it but he didn't charge me anything too. Knowing my circumstances, he accepted my case as a pro bono. So if you are looking for an experienced reliable lawyer, you are in good hands with Musa-Obregon and Associates.”
Treats each client with dignity and respect.“Michael and I worked together for about two years. He not only possesses an incredible amount of knowledge concerning the ins and outs of immigration law, but also treats each client with dignity and respect. He stands up for the rights of immigrants and is unafraid to challenge the Federal Government when they wrongly deny an immigration benefit to one of his clients. I highly recommend him to anyone seeking immigration representation.”
He knows both criminal and immigration law like the back of his hand.“Michael Musa-Obregon's skills are quite remarkable- he knows both criminal and immigration law like the back of his hand- he is a widely recognized NYC criminal defense attorney and is an expert on immigration and deportation defense. This renders him a lethal adversary to his opponents, whether it is Homeland Security prosecutors or tough immigration judges intent on deporting immigrants en masse. His skills at taking apart an accusation in the criminal defense realm transfers perfectly to attacking deportation accusations. As a former NY immigration practitioner and now a solicitor practicing in England, I strongly recommend my criminal and immigration clients facing problems in the United States to Michael.”
I will definitely recommend you to anyone I come across needing legal work.“Amazingly I just got my TN Visa after being arrested for drugs! A crazy turnaround of events given this afternoon I thought my future in the US was finished! Your letter was great, thanks for all your support and collaboration. I will definitely recommend you to anyone I come across needing legal work BTW I might go for a spouse visa over the next 18 months and apply for the green card, let me know if you can do those and what your fee would be.”
Thanks to Mr. Theodore Hartman, Bernardo can now look forward to a positive future in the United States of America.“On behalf of the family of Bernardo, I wish to thank your firm for your excellent representation in his plea for asylum in the United States. His mother, an acquaintance through a former student of mine, called me yesterday after they received the affirmation that their request has been granted. I was an ESL/Bilingual teacher in the Public Schools in Westchester for four decades, and in that role heard many, many sad and horrific stories told by immigrants, and Bernardo is now part of that count. I learned the details when I translated for him at the Office of Homeland Security a few weeks ago. Possibly because he is a teenager who has been traumatized by the events in his life, Bernardo was not very forthcoming with his responses to the officer's interview, often answering in single word replies. Thank goodness for Mr. Hartman! Through his added questions, he managed to get Bernard to fully tell his story in a way that made it clear that he could never be safe in his homeland again. Mr. Hartman also submitted a number of legal documents (all translated) and photographs from Guatemala which provided strong evidence for the veracity of the case. If this family had had to present their petition without legal defense, it might very well have had a different outcome. Thanks to Mr. Theodore Hartman, Bernardo can now look forward to a positive future in the United States of America. I will be eager to recommend this very compassionate and highly competent attorney to other immigrant families in need of representation.”
Very capable and compassionate professional.“Mr. Musa-Obregon was excellent on my case. I am a professional who was accused of a serious crime and I thought it was the end. He defended me and I have my job back and my freedom. Call him, you can't go wrong. He is very honest and will give you his honest opinion, whether you want to hear it or not. Very capable and compassionate professional.”
I have looked up to Michael as a successful attorney, and on occasion for legal consultation and input on my own cases.“Mr. Musa-Obregon is a talented attorney with a great personality. Mr. Musa-Obregon is a graduate of prestigious schools, and a great lawyer. He has a lot of experience in many different fields of law but especially in Criminal and Immigration law. I worked with Michael on a very difficult asylum case with multiple lawyers involved in different jurisdictions. I was very impressed with how he came through as the supervising counsel. I had my doubts about the chance of success, based on the jurisdiction in which the case was being adjudicated. However, Michael won the case and reunited a family. I have looked up to Michael as a successful attorney, and on occasion for legal consultation and input on my own cases. It is a pleasure to know him, and to have worked with him.”
I don't know how a man who is so busy even gives out his cell phones to his clients for emergencies but to show you how much he feels for his clients, this is the kind of lawyer that he is!“My gratitude cannot show how much he helped my family, Michael Musa-Obregon. I was 8 months pregnant when my fiancées who is from Poland got arrested. He just got out my fiancé out of federal jail in Batavia NY on federal charges and an immigration detainer for entering the country illegally and now he is staying in the U.S. to fight his asylum case. We visited three other lawyers who said it was too hard, that it couldn't be done just give up now and send him home. Right when I was about to give up, my friend Anya called me back who knows Mr. Obregon from the Polish Radio show and said he's the best give him a shot you have nothing to lose. Within six days my fiancé is out of the criminal case and immigration jail. He can now take care of his baby daughter who will be born with her father by her side next month. In my opinion, compared to the other "top lawyers "I spoke to, Mr. Obregon truly was the best! And every time I needed him I got him on his cell. I don't know how a man who is so busy even gives out his cell phones to his clients for emergencies but to show you how much he feels for his clients, this is the kind of lawyer that he is! Anyone ever asks me for a good lawyer, I'm sending them to him.”
Now we are here to stay and can get green cards.“We hired the law firm to represent our entire family in a deportation case. We were not sure we could win because our daughter is sick but she is not terminal but with the doctor's reports we got, the judge agreed and stopped our deportation. Now we are here to stay and can get green cards. I cannot say enough good things about this firm. Call them- they can help you, like they helped us.”
He thought out of the box and worked until he was able to have a conversation with the DA.“I would especially like to extend my gratitude towards Michael whom I felt had really worked to bring a favorable outcome. Michael took the time to sit down and listen to my story. He asked questions, wrote notes down and strategized. From there he reassured me that with a little bit of brainwork we could come up with a plausible, positive outcome. Michael suggested I pull together some letters of recommendation from my peers and colleagues in addition to the letter from the support counselor I had been seeing, and was committed in pressing the DA to hear him. In my opinion, Michael has been a diligently great lawyer who truly took on my case with conviction. He thought out of the box and worked until he was able to have a conversation with the DA. The verdict could have ended against my favor but I feel that I would still be satisfied with Michael's work and walked away with 'at least we really tried' and the reason why I commend him is because he really made efforts to understand and hear my story, reach out to the DA and present the case in the most advantageous light to bring about the best verdict he could. I would also like to thank JC on the day he presented me. JC patiently answered my many inquiries and asked me multiple questions in order to get a picture of what had happened reassuring me that he was there to try to do what he could on the day. I must also apologize for being a real pain in this whole saga.”
I am in shock today that I got asylum in the United States. I can't believe it.“I am in shock today that I got asylum in the United States. I can't believe it. I came in from the Caribbean five years ago. I am gay. Mr. Obregon was the first lawyer to take the time and find out everything about my life and I told him that I was gay. I am afraid to go back to my country since my boyfriend had been killed there years ago. I just got my approval letter that I am being granted asylum in the US. I recommend anyone who has a similar problem to go see Mr. Obregon. I am so happy today.”
My son has got a good job now and is a free man because of this lawyer.“He helped me with my son's drug cases. When I went to him I thought my son was definitely going to jail because he had sold drugs to an undercover six times. Mr. Musa-Obregon is a very good lawyer because my son did not have to do even one more day in jail. My son has got a good job now and is a free man because of this lawyer. I definitely would recommend him very well.”
I trust him completely and know he has my best interest in mind.“I have known Shauky (Michael) since my freshman year at Bronx HS of Science. He is one of my friends who, decades later, still has his same positive spirit, heart of gold and integrity in life as well as is a capable and brilliant problem solver. I trust him completely and know he has my best interest in mind and will cover my back for the unexpected. He has helped me and my family with my adoption of my daughter and my businesses with fantastic results. You are one of the few great men I have known throughout my life. I feel truly blessed and privileged. Thank you.”
He found solutions when other lawyers turned us down.“He was very kind and helpful and he really knows his stuff. He found solutions when other lawyers turned us down. Now have my citizenship after being put in deportation because of a mistake I made on my application years ago. I would highly recommend him. My hat is off to him and his knowledgeable staff.”
Mr. Obregon is an experienced, knowledgeable attorney and it shows.“Mr. Obregon is an experienced, knowledgeable attorney and it shows. He was a former Assistant District Attorney in Queens and he knew how to defend my son. I would recommend him to everyone.”
Thank you, Mr. Obregon, for helping me and my family. We will never forget this.“We just came from Immigration Court and Mr. Musa-Obregon just got my husband released after three weeks of sitting in jail. I had talked to many people who said that once immigration picks you up because you got arrested, that you can't get out. Mr. Musa-Obregon said that wasn't true and he was right because my husband's freedom now is living proof of this. Now we must fight the criminal case but it will be easier because my husband is home! Thank you, Mr. Obregon, for helping me and my family. We will never forget this. God bless you & your family!!”
He is hands down the best lawyer I have ever used.“Michael Musa-Obregon saved my life. When my family was against me and didn't want to help me he took my case and the reason I'm out of Riker's Island today is because of him. My ex pressed charges and I thought I was going to jail for three years before I talked to Mike. Mike showed she was lying about the whole thing and the jury came back not guilty. He is hands down the best lawyer I have ever used. I will never stop recommending this lawyer because he saved my life! Call him, you cannot go wrong.”
He's brilliant and cares for his clients with true heart, you could not be in better hands.“Had a dishonest auto shop that would "create" a new issue with my car each time my husband brought it in for a repair. Mr. Obregon took our case, even though it was a small case he took it on. He was there every time we had to go to court, as they would cancel on us at the last minute not giving us time to warn Mr. Obregon not to come. And this happened 3 times and he was ALWAYS there for us. When we finally got the case to be heard, Mr. Obregon was brilliant handling the case and justice was served! He's brilliant and cares for his clients with true heart, you could not be in better hands.”
Michael's experience in criminal and immigration law is unsurpassed.“Michael's experience in criminal and immigration law is unsurpassed. I would recommend Michael to anyone who wants the security of having an experienced legal mind to give them the best possible representation.”
Thank you for winning my case and saving my family“From the bottom of my heart, I thank you Mr. Obregon for all you did for my husband and me. I'm so glad I came to you. Thank you for winning my case and saving my family today.”
I recognize the law firm Musa-Obregon & Associates for its attention and assistance to our entire community.“I recognize the law firm Musa-Obregon & Associates for its attention and assistance to our entire community. I have personally witnessed how these lawyers have helped many people in our community with their immigration and criminal matters, as well as accident cases. The professionalism of the lawyers at Musa-Obregon & Associates and their dedication to each client and each case have distinguished this law firm as a source of pride within the New York and New Jersey City Hispanic community.”
This firm's outstanding dedication has actually inspired me to switch careers. I have recently been accepted to law school and I truly thank Musa-Obregon and Associates for inspiring me.“My husband, an undocumented immigrant from Ireland, was arrested in 2012. An immigration detainer was placed on him and he was put in ICE custody with removal proceedings placed. I was sure that this was the end and that our family would be torn apart. Michael and everyone at his firm -- especially Magda, Mario, Ben, and Juan Carlos, worked tirelessly to help us. They helped me file the visa and green card forms, and answered all of my panicked phone calls with clarity and calmness. My husband was released from ICE custody and we are awaiting our green card interview next month. People are shocked when I tell them our story. This firm's outstanding dedication has actually inspired me to switch careers. I have recently been accepted to law school and I truly thank Musa-Obregon and Associates for inspiring me. This is THE place to turn when you or a loved one need legal assistance.”
Caring and helping our entire community.“I thank the lawyers at Musa-Obregon & Associates for caring and helping our entire community. I have seen how the lawyers have helped many people with immigration problems, with accidents and criminal cases. Their professionalism on every case they handle in their office makes them stand out for their service to the Hispanic community.”
Every client I referred to him has been satisfied and is still in the country.“Mr. Obregon is an immigration attorney that stays informed with the constant changing of immigration laws. Every client I referred to him has been satisfied and is still in the country. His practice has continued to grow every year allowing him to hire more people to handle his very busy criminal and immigration practice. This is a reflection of his talents. In addition, he is very personable.”
They won my VAWA case. I am extremely grateful for their help.“My name is Julio. Musa-Obregon and Associates has guided me in my Immigration issues. I got to function in the society because of their help. Recently, they won my VAWA case. I am extremely grateful for their help. They are very professional and show they care and compassion to their clients. I want to thank my attorneys Mr. Michael Musa Obregon and Mr. Juan Carlos Monteza for their excellent service. I also want to thank their staff most especially Ms. Oraa, Mr. Paz and Ms. Sosa. I will be eternally grateful.”
