About Our Firm
Fonte Friz-Garcia Immigration Firm, P.L., is proud of our exceptionally dedicated and professional staff. Each staff member is highly trained and extremely knowledgeable in the field. Staff members are assigned to cases based on their areas of expertise and particular skills. To ensure the highest quality of legal work and client service, each case is supervised and reviewed by Attorney Kari Ann Fonte.
Our Philosophy
Fonte Friz-Garcia Immigration Firm, P.L. often handles complex cases involving cutting edge legal issues or difficult facts. We will not turn away a client just because a case is challenging. However not every case is accepted by the firm. A case will not be accepted if it involves fraud, or if the firm feels the client is being dishonest. A case will also not be accepted if the firm feels the client does not have a chance of success. The firm will give its professional opinion as to whether a matter is worth pursuing. If the matter is simple enough that a client can do it him/herself, or one for which the firm feels an attorney is not necessary, the firm will advise the client accordingly.
On the subject of professional fees, the firm charges only for the work to be done based on an estimate of the amount of time and work that the case requires. If a client needs assistance with payments, the firm may be able to work out a payment plan. Each client will be given a retainer agreement, which will set out the expected fee and related costs, and all related costs to prevent misunderstandings. If a client does not receive a retainer agreement she/he should request one, since an agreement in writing on the subject of fees and other matters offers the client protection. A client will never be pressured into employing the firm or paying the required deposit to start the case. Once a client retains, the firm will fight for its clients all the way, within the limits of the law.
