FACEBOOK REVIEW - A recent notice posted by the Panama Migracion warns of unscrupulous law firms operating in Panama! "Recently Panama Immigration has made an announcement, that fake law firms have come to Panama, scamming money from foreigners applying for immigration. We will dive deeply into this next week, and how to choose the right Law Firm." It's so important to check out a law firm's reputation and verify recommendations before you commit and pay any money. In fact, any law firm that wants you to pay them money upfront should be a "Red Flag" to you! Julisa Jaramillo is my attorney and I cannot recommend her more highly. Her law practice is located in Panama City and she is very familiar with all the offices & staff to get your Visa, driver's license, and Cedula. You don't have to hire her, but you owe it to yourself to reach out to her for an interview. julisajaramillo.abogada@gmail.com -William Hurley- That's exactly how I met Julisa Jaramillo. I was a lost soul with a lot of questions. I began a dialog with Julisa. I was a problem child with a number of issues. She handled each and every one - no pressure - The reason I live in Boquete (5 years) with a Pensionado Visa, is because of Julisa's experience, patience, and Professionalism! Julisa is, by far, the best attorney in Panama City!

Tuvimos que pasar por otros dos abogados y perdimos miles de dólares y papeles críticos durante años. En 3 meses resolvisteis todo con la profesionalidad de un abogado estadounidense. ¡Fuisteis un regalo de Dios! ¡Muchas gracias!r> -

Julisa did a terrific job getting my boyfriend his temporary jubilado and driver’s license. Even though there were minor setbacks, she managed to get everything done in one day and dropped him at the airport on his way back to Chiriqui. Thank you, Julisa!
Two separate occasions to visit Panama City and each time she and her husband Roberto managed to not only get 3 gov’t offices done in a single day, but got him to the airport early for his flight back. She always keeps in touch and sincerely cares for her clients. He had his cedula and permanent license only 3-1/2 months after he started the process. I have nothing but great things to say about her.

GOOGLE REVIEW - My husband and I have been working with Julisa since last summer. She and her husband came to our rental to meet us. That was our first good sign we had picked the right person. Since that time, she has been with us through every step of our residency status. Today we finished the process including our driver's licenses. I can't even imagine doing this process without her. She is beyond knowledgeable about her country and the laws pertaining to Panama. She will be our forever lawyer in Panama as well as a friend. I wish we weren't limited to just 5 stars!! She deserves 10 plus:)

FACEBOOK REVIEW- Julisa did the job for us! If anyone thinks they can navigate the beaurocratic maze of foreign residency without a good competent attorney they are likely to be frustrated and disappointed. We knew we were in good hands!

Immigration & Administrative Law Client
GOOGLE REVIEW - Attorney Julisa Jaramillo is an invaluable service provider. She and her assistant Roberto were extremely helpful with the service she provided for us to acquire our Panamanian Drivers Licenses. They made all the arrangements, took us through everything step by step as they explained what we should do and what to expect at each different office location. They were extremely efficient when they reviewed our paperwork for accuracy and was able to catch detail mistakes that would have caused a delay or revisit to the office for correction before we departed that location. Their meticulous review of the documents numerous times was extremely impressive as we actually had been referenced about her attention to detail and she had the opportunity to prove so with us. Yes, this is a process that can be done without assistance, but they made it so much easier and we accomplished everything needed in one day. Hiring her was so worth the cost. We are very appreciative for their help. Thanks Ms. Julisa and Mr. Roberto!

GOOGLE REVIEW - Julisa and her husband would deserve a 100 stars renting!!!... I came to Panama February 2023, alone, and with a lot of worries, I got in touch with probably 50 different lawyers in Panama, and a lot of them asked ridiculous prices responding with deley. Julisa since day 1, seemed to be very professional and helpful, always answering in time. So I decided to apply for my permanent residency with her (italy - Panama treaty). It’s been so far the best choice!, I received my Permanent residency and Cedula after only 3 months, everything went smoothly, she also give me the option to pay half at the beginning of the process and the other half at the end. For the whole process I paid way less then most of the other lawyers asked. I also ended up buying a land a week ago, she managed everything with perfection and professionally, always responding and dealing with me and the seller. Everything was impecable and flawless!!. She also help me out with the price, knowing that I was struggling a bit economically. I have just wonderful words to say about her and her husband!. They are not only profesional lawyers, but they are also wonderful and adorable people!. I will also get my work permit soon! I definitely recommend Julisa to everyone! Whatever is an immigration matter or real-estate, they just so good, trustworthy and reliable!!!!!!!.

GOOGLE REVIEW- It takes a lot for me to write a review! It’s either really good or really BAD! Spoiler alert…This one had to be written because “Never have I ever” felt someone is so awesome in their service! I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional services provided by Atty. Julisa Jaramillo in Panama City, Panama. Her expertise and unwavering support throughout my permanent resident pensionado visa process have been nothing short of extraordinary. From the very beginning, Julisa engaged in in-depth and often grueling conversations with me, patiently listening to all my concerns and questions. She possesses a deep understanding of both Panamanian and United States laws, and her lucid explanations made the process comprehensible and stress-free. Julisa, along with her paralegal husband, managed every aspect of the visa application seamlessly. Their teamwork is impressive, and they went above and beyond to ensure that my experience was as smooth as possible. Julisa's selfless patience is worth mentioning – she never made me feel like a burden, no matter how many questions I had. Her step-by-step instructions, thoughtfully provided in English, guided me through the process with ease. One of the most outstanding aspects of Julisa's service is her unwavering presence and support.

GOOGLE REVIEW - Julisa has provided exceptional service to me by helping me to obtain the Pensionado visa. I started the process while still in USA and she walked me through each step. We communicated continuously throughout the process. She answered all of my questions. So when I went to immigration office in Panama, it was so quick and easy because she did all of the work before I got there. I highly recommend her to everyone who needs her services. I’m glad to have her as my lawyer and a friend here in Panama.

GOOGLE REVIEW-Julisa Jaramillo is a great attorney. She had all of my paperwork that I needed for immigration done in a timely manner. She was very patient in explaining what needed to be done when I didn't quite understand the process. She was instrumental in making sure that the process of authentication of my documents in the U.S. went smoothly and was meticulous in each details so that everything arrived in Panama in time. I spent a lovely 2 weeks in Panama, spending only a few days on the immigration process, which left me plenty of time to enjoy the beautiful country, and I am leaving Panama with my visa in hand. I highly recommend attorney Julisa Jaramillo!

Administrative Law Client
GOOGLE REVIEW- Awesome service. Was contacted within 15 minutes of making an inquiry on their booking form. They told me the steps I needed to take for the Pensionada Visa. I'm already here in Panama, so I have to go back to the USA to process the paperwork. So that's advice to you, to stay in your country to start the paperwork. The fees Julisa is charging are very reasonable. I will use them when I'm ready to start the process.
