Manuel has served as a DOJ-Accredited Catholic Charities immigration representative for individuals seeking family-based petitions and other naturalization tools for 30 years. Manuel skillfully draws from his training and, when necessary, solicits trustworthy legal advice from legal partnerships he has forged for decades to ensure participants are successful. Their children and even grandchildren blossom into U.S. citizens, doctors, teachers, politicians and more. When our staff visits Humboldt, Mendocino, Lake, and other counties, Manuel Rivera's name always comes up with joy and reverence.
