Home About Our Attorneys Results Media Room Contact Us Immigration Bonds Deportation Defense Adjustment of Status Marriage Petitions Crimmigration Motions to Reopen ADJUSTMENT OF STATUS (AOS) For families living in the Greater Houston region, adjustment of status is often the most convenient and secure way to obtain permanent residency. Applicants avoid international travel, embassy delays, and the risk of triggering 3- or 10-year unlawful presence bars by leaving the country. Once the application is filed, most of our clients in Fort Bend County, Montgomery County, and Harris County receive their work permit and travel document within months, allowing them to work legally and travel for emergencies while the case is pending. The final green card interview is held at the Houston USCIS Field Office, eliminating the stress and unpredictable outcomes of overseas consular interviews. CEDILLO LAW FIRM Many people qualify for AOS but don’t realize it. Generally, individuals may adjust if they were inspected and admitted or paroled into the U.S. and have a qualifying family petition, such as a marriage to a U.S. citizen or sponsorship by a U.S. citizen parent or adult child. People in unique situations — such as VAWA applicants, K-1 fiancé(e) entrants, refugees, asylees, TPS beneficiaries, and those who qualify under Section 245(i) — may also be eligible. Because the rules differ depending on how you entered the country and your immigration history, we carefully review your background to determine whether AOS is the correct and safest option for your family. Who is Eligible for Adjustment of Status? The Benefits of Adjusting Status Locally in Texas Adjustment of Status (AOS) is the process that allows qualifying immigrants to apply for a green card from inside the United States, without having to return to their home country for a consular interview. For families living in Houston, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Richmond, Katy, and surrounding areas, this process offers a safe, reliable path to permanent residency. At Cedillo Law Firm, we help clients navigate every step — from filing the initial I-130 to preparing a complete adjustment of status packet, securing work authorization, and guiding families through the final interview at the Houston USCIS Field Office. Every page matters because every family matters. Building a Strong AOS Packet A well-prepared adjustment of status packet is critical. At Cedillo Law Firm, we assemble a complete filing that typically includes the I-130 family petition, the I-485 application to adjust status, the I-864 Affidavit of Support, and requests for work and travel authorization. We gather supporting documents that demonstrate a genuine marital relationship — such as joint leases, bank statements, bills, photos, and affidavits — and we prepare clients for their medical exam and all necessary biometrics appointments. For couples living in places like Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Katy, Spring, or Richmond, we tailor the evidence to your specific living situation so USCIS receives a thorough and fully documented packet from day one. Common Challenges in Adjustment of Status Cases Adjustment of status seems simple, but many cases are delayed or denied due to avoidable mistakes. These often involve missing evidence, incomplete forms, insufficient proof of a good-faith marriage, or financial shortcomings in the Affidavit of Support. For applicants in the Houston area, additional issues frequently arise from past visa overstays, misrepresentations at entry, or old criminal matters that must be addressed carefully. We review your history in detail, identify potential red flags, and take corrective steps before the filing ever reaches USCIS, minimizing the risk of delays or Requests for Evidence. Preparing for the AOS Interview Most applicants adjusting through marriage will attend an in-person interview at the Houston Field Office. This interview focuses on the relationship, your immigration history, and the information provided in your packet. Couples may be asked about how they met, how long they’ve lived together, their finances, and daily routines. If the officer has concerns about the marriage or the evidence, they may conduct a more in-depth “Stokes” interview, where spouses are questioned separately. Cedillo Law Firm prepares clients thoroughly for these interviews, with mock questions and detailed guidance on what to expect. Our goal is to ensure that by the time you sit down with USCIS, nothing comes as a surprise. How Cedillo Law Firm Supports Your Family We take a hands-on, client-centered approach to adjustment of status cases. From the moment we evaluate your eligibility, we guide you through each step — preparing forms, gathering evidence, organizing your packet, submitting filings, and tracking your case status. For families across Houston, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Richmond, Rosenberg, Katy, Conroe, and beyond, we provide consistent communication and proactive problem-solving. If USCIS issues a Request for Evidence, we respond promptly and effectively. Adjustment of status is more than a legal filing — it is a major step toward family stability, work authorization, and permanent residency. We understand how important these cases are, and we treat them with the seriousness they deserve.

Cedillo Law Firm, PLLC is a Texas-based team of passionate trial lawyers dedicated to justice in criminal defense, immigration, and personal injury. Learn our mission and why we fight. Home About Our Attorneys Results Media Room Contact Us Car Accidents Trucking Accidents Wrongful Death Slip & Fall Cases Personal Injury Claims General Civil Litigation PERSONAL INJURY CLAIMS When you’re injured because someone else was careless, the law allows you to seek compensation through a personal injury claim. Our firm guides clients across Houston, Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Richmond, Rosenberg, and Katythrough each step of the process. That includes documenting your injuries, preserving evidence, notifying insurance companies, evaluating liability, negotiating for a settlement, and—when necessary—filing suit in Harris County, Fort Bend County, or Montgomery County courts. A personal injury case isn’t just about paperwork. It’s about building a compelling narrative that demonstrates the impact the accident had on your health, your job, and your day-to-day life. We handle the legal battle so you can focus on healing and rebuilding. CEDILLO LAW FIRM When an injury disrupts your life, you need a law firm that understands both the legal landscape and the community you live in. At Cedillo Law Firm, we represent injured clients throughout the Greater Houston area, including Sugar Land, The Woodlands, Houston, Richmond, Rosenberg, Katy, Missouri City, Stafford, Pearland, and nearby Texas communities. Our team also routinely handles cases in Harris County, Fort Bend County, and Montgomery County, giving us a deep understanding of the courts, insurers, and medical networks across Southeast Texas. “Personal injury claims” cover a wide spectrum of cases—any situation where someone suffers harm because of another person’s negligence or wrongful conduct. Beyond car and trucking accidents, these claims include dog bites, unsafe property conditions, negligent security incidents, assault-related civil claims, construction injuries, defective products, and many other scenarios. If someone’s carelessness caused your injuries, our firm knows how to pursue accountability. How Personal Injury Cases Work Types of Injuries We Commonly See Personal injury isn’t limited to catastrophic accidents. We represent clients with a wide range of injuries, including: Soft tissue injuries Fractures and broken bones Back, neck, and spine injuries Concussions and traumatic brain injuries Burn injuries Disfigurement or scarring Shoulder, knee, and joint damage Chronic pain or nerve damage Whether your injuries are moderate or severe, your recovery deserves attention, support, and a legal team that knows how to translate your experience into a strong claim. How We Prove Negligence in Texas Under Texas law, a successful personal injury claim requires proof that someone else acted negligently. That means showing: They owed you a duty of care. They breached that duty. Their conduct caused your injury. You suffered damages. Our attorneys use medical records, photographs, surveillance footage, witness interviews, expert reports, and—when needed—accident reconstruction to prove fault. Whether the case involves a dangerous property condition in Sugar Land, a dog attack in The Woodlands, or an assault in Houston, our job is to uncover the truth and present it clearly and persuasively. Insurance Companies Aren’t on Your Side One of the biggest misconceptions we see is the belief that insurance adjusters are there to help. They’re not. Their job is to minimize payouts—not to compensate you fairly. That’s why injured people in the Greater Houston area often receive lowball settlement offers, rushed phone calls, or pressure to give recorded statements that can later be used against them. At Cedillo Law Firm, we level the playing field. We negotiate directly with insurers, push back against bad-faith tactics, and make sure your injuries are valued accurately. When insurers refuse to be reasonable, we don’t hesitate to file suit and take the matter before a judge or jury. Why Choose Cedillo Law Firm? Accidents are personal. So is the representation we provide. Clients choose our firm because: We handle cases throughout Houston, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands with deep local knowledge. We build strong evidentiary records that withstand insurance challenges. We maintain constant communication with clients and medical providers. We work with expert witnesses—including treating physicians, chiropractors, accident reconstructionists, and economic loss experts—when needed. We know how to take cases all the way to trial when justice demands it. Most importantly, our reputation as a trial-ready, client-focused law firm means insurers know we’re serious. We do not accept unfair offers. We fight for what your case is truly worth. What to Do After an Injury in the Houston Area If you’ve been injured anywhere in Harris County, Fort Bend County, or Montgomery County, taking the right steps early can protect your claim: Get medical attention immediately, even if the pain seems mild. Document everything — photos of the scene, injuries, property damage, and the names of witnesses. Avoid giving recorded statements to insurance companies before speaking with an attorney. Follow your medical treatment plan closely. Contact our office so we can preserve evidence and begin building your claim. Your actions in the first days after an accident can make or break your case. We help make sure your rights are protected from the very start. Common Myths About Personal Injury Cases Myth #1: “If my injuries aren’t severe, I don’t need a lawyer.” Insurance companies in Houston, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands often downplay soft-tissue injuries or symptoms that appear days after the accident. Even moderate injuries can result in long-term pain, medical bills, and lost wages. An attorney ensures your injuries are fully documented and valued. Myth #2: “The insurance company will treat me fairly.” Unfortunately, no. Adjusters are trained to minimize payouts—sometimes by offering low settlements, rushing injured victims, or using recorded statements against them later. Cedillo Law Firm pushes back against these tactics and protects your claim. Myth #3: “Hiring a lawyer means I’m going to court.” Not true. Most cases settle through negotiation. But what matters—even for settlement—is whether the insurance company believes your lawyer is willing and able to go to trial. Our reputation as a trial-ready firm strengthens your position from day one. Myth #4: “I can’t afford a lawyer.” We take personal injury cases on a contingency fee, meaning you don’t pay anything upfront. We only get paid if we win. This allows injured clients across Fort Bend County, Montgomery County, and Harris County to access top-tier legal representation without financial stress. Myth #5: “I can handle the claim myself.” Texas personal injury law is complex, and insurance companies know how to exploit the unrepresented. Medical records, causation issues, liability disputes, and damage calculations all require experience. A single mistake can cost you thousands. We help you avoid those pitfalls. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) What is my personal injury case worth? Every case is different. Value depends on medical bills, pain and suffering, lost income, permanent impairment, future treatment, and how the injuries impact your life. Once we review your case and medical documentation, we can provide a realistic range. How long do I have to file a personal injury claim in Texas? In most cases, two years from the date of the injury. But certain situations—government claims, minors, or cases involving ongoing medical treatment—may have different deadlines. The sooner you call us, the better we can protect your rights. Do I need to see a doctor right away? Yes. Delaying treatment gives insurance companies an excuse to argue you weren’t really hurt. In the Greater Houston area, we help clients find trusted medical providers who understand the documentation needed for injury cases. What if the accident was partly my fault? Texas follows a “modified comparative negligence” rule. You can still recover compensation as long as you were not more than 50% at fault. We analyze the evidence to minimize any fault attributed to you and maximize your recovery. How long does a personal injury case take? It depends. Some cases settle in a few months; others—especially those involving serious injuries—take longer because we wait for medical stability and accurate damage assessments. If litigation is necessary in Harris, Fort Bend, or Montgomery County, the timeline may extend. We keep you informed every step of the way. Will my medical bills be paid right away? Typically, bills are resolved at the end of the case from the settlement. We often work with medical providers in Houston, Sugar Land, and The Woodlands who will treat clients and wait for payment until the case resolves. Do I have to speak with the other driver’s insurance company? No. And you shouldn’t. Anything you say can be used against you. Let us handle all communications while you focus on recovery. What if the person who injured me has no insurance? You may still have options. Many clients in the Houston area carry UM/UIM (uninsured/underinsured motorist) coverage. We also look for additional liable parties depending on the case. How much does it cost to hire Cedillo Law Firm? There are no upfront fees. We only get paid when we win your case. This gives you access to strong representation without financial risk.

Cedillo Law Firm, PLLC is a Texas-based team of passionate trial lawyers dedicated to justice in criminal defense, immigration, and personal injury. Learn our mission and why we fight. Home About Our Attorneys Results Media Room Contact Us DWI ASSAULT / FAMILY VIOLENCE THEFT DRUG CHARGES CRIMMIGRATION SERIOUS FELONIES SERIOUS FELONY DEFENSE CEDILLO LAW FIRM Serious Felonies Require a Serious Defense Facing a major felony charge in Texas—whether it’s a sex offense, homicide allegation, violent crime, organized crime indictment, or money laundering investigation—is one of the most terrifying experiences a person can go through. The State has enormous power, unlimited resources, and a head start on building its case against you. At Cedillo Law Firm, we level that playing field. Our experienced Texas criminal defense attorneys handle serious felonies, first-degree charges, complex forensic cases, and high-stakes jury trials throughout Harris County, Fort Bend County, Montgomery County, and courts across the state. When your freedom, reputation, immigration status, and future are at risk, you need a defense team that is fully prepared , aggressive , strategic , and unafraid to take a case all the way to a jury verdict. We dig into the evidence, challenge unconstitutional searches, expose unreliable witnesses, confront junk science, and bring in the right experts to dismantle the prosecution’s case. No matter how serious the accusation, no matter how strong the government claims its evidence is, you are not alone —and you are not without a defense. Some Types of Serious Felony Cases We Handle Cedillo Law Firm represents clients facing the most serious, high-stakes charges in Texas. Our team is equipped to handle complex cases in categories such as: Sex Offenses & Indecency Allegations Including cases involving SANE exams, forensic interviews, and credibility disputes. Homicide, Murder & Capital Murder From self-defense cases to accidental deaths to multi-defendant cases. Serious Assaults & Injury to a Child / Elderly Cases involving medical forensics, trauma analysis, and contested allegations. Domestic Violence & Strangulation Allegations Major Drug Offenses & Organized Crime Allegations Including trafficking, manufacturing, conspiracy, and large-scale investigations. Money Laundering & Financial Crimes Especially cases involving multi-defendant indictments, electronic evidence, and financial records. Robbery, Burglary & High-Level Property Crimes Cases Involving Complex Forensic, Digital, or Scientific Evidence Motions to Adjudicate Guilt/Revoke Probation Heavy Mitigation & Early Investigation In serious cases, mitigation is not something you start at the end—it begins on day one . We work closely with mental health professionals, social-history experts, and mitigation specialists to tell our client’s full story. We uncover the truth the government ignores—medical history, trauma, addiction, mental health, family dynamics, mistaken assumptions, and all factors that matter in guilt, innocence, and punishment. Judges and juries need context. They need to see that a person is more that what they may have done on their worst day. We make sure they understand that. Expert-Driven Defense Serious charges often hinge on technical, medical, or scientific evidence. We bring in the right experts—forensic scientists, medical and SANE experts, digital forensic analysts, accident reconstructionists, psychologists, and sociologists —to challenge the state’s theory and present a complete, fact-based defense. Whether the issue is DNA, phone extractions, blood evidence, intoxication science, false confessions, or trauma dynamics, we build defenses rooted in hard science and real expertise. Strategic Co-Counseling & Team-Based Defense No single lawyer can master every discipline in a major felony case—and the law doesn’t expect them to. When a case demands it, we use our network of fellow defense attorneys - including those in our firm and those who ally with our firm- to bring in co-counsel : board-certified specialists, seasoned trial lawyers, appellate attorneys, investigators, or experts in niche fields. This team-based approach gives our clients an advantage the state never expects, all to put the defendant in the best possible position. Advanced Jury Selection & Trial Strategy The jury you seat can decide the entire case. We use jury consultants, social-science research, community attitude analysis, and advanced voir dire techniques to identify bias, uncover hidden perspectives, and select jurors who will listen fairly. We know how to talk about tough facts, heavy accusations, and emotional subjects in a way that builds trust and control of the courtroom. Relentless Trial Advocacy Serious felonies demand a trial team that is prepared, composed, and fearless. Our firm has secured Not Guilty verdicts of acquittal , dismissals , and even directed verdicts in first-degree and high-stakes cases where the odds were stacked against the defense. We attack weak evidence, challenge unlawful police conduct, expose unreliable witnesses, and present compelling narratives that resonate with jurors. When the government brings its full power against you, we bring our full power in response. Proven Results in High-Stakes Felony Cases When your life is on the line, results matter. Cedillo Law Firm has a track record of success in serious felony trials —including Not Guilty verdicts, Directed Verdicts, and complete dismissals in cases where the State sought decades in prison. We regularly defend clients accused of capital murder, aggravated sexual assault, indecency with a child, aggravated robbery, aggravated assault, injury to a child, drug trafficking, major narcotics conspiracies, and money laundering schemes . Our wins are not accidents. They come from intense investigation, early expert consultation, challenging forensic evidence, conducting deep-dive background reviews on complaining witnesses, and executing advanced voir dire techniques to select fair and impartial juries. When prosecutors overcharge a case, rely on flawed forensics, or bring weak evidence to court, we expose every weakness. When police violate constitutional rights, we file motions to suppress and attack illegal searches, unlawful arrests, coerced statements, and defective warrants. Our trial team is known for meticulous preparation, persuasive courtroom advocacy, and the ability to simplify complex forensic and scientific evidence for jurors . Whether we are defending a sex offense with a SANE exam, a homicide with forensic pathology issues, or a money laundering case involving digital evidence and financial tracing, we know how to build defenses that win.
