Hired Attorney Mr. John M. Butin

Twenty years ago a friend of mine told me about the excellent legal services provided by Mr. John Butin. Since then his professional guidance has been critical for all my immigration needs. He and Carmen Bautista make the THE BEST TEAM. Any person who seeks their services can rest assured that he/she will be guided in every step of the way. I am honored and blessed to be one of their clients.

Hired Attorney Mr. John M. Butin

We would like to thank John and Carmen Bautista for the attention and clear guidance that they provided for my wife and I going through the process of obtaining her green card. Carmen helped us organize our documentation and answered all questions that we had. Furthermore, she anticipated confusing aspects of the process and assisted us with staying updated with upcoming phases as they were approaching and we felt like she was very patient and understanding of our needs. We will definitely use them again in the future should the need arise.

Hired Attorney Mr. John M. Butin

I was extremely pleased with their services. I initially went to them for DACA and eventually was able to file for my residency. Having to travel to Mexico for my residency, Mr. Butin and Carmen assured me through the whole process and were very helpful when I had questions.

Hired Attorney Mr. John M. Butin

John Butin and Carmen Bautista did an outstanding job by helping me to navigate the passport renewal system to correct an error on my passport. After receiving incorrect information from a passport service representative, Mr. Butin, and Ms. Bautista saved the day by guiding me in the right direction to resolve my issue.

Hired Attorney Mr. John M. Butin

Mr. Butin and Carmen were so very helpful. There was a lot of documentation required for me to obtain a passport and they were there every step of the way. Carmen did everything she could do make it happen. My case is complicated but Mr. Butin was able to ascertain that I have actually been a citizen since 1966. I could not recommend anyone more highly than Carmen and Mr. Butin. Thank you both again.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
