About

I am William Gaston McLean III, an immigration attorney from Ocala, Florida. I have fought for the rights of immigrants all over the world ever since I entered law school, and I have been an immigration attorney ever since I received my license to practice law. I am bilingual in English and Spanish, and have several years of experience practicing immigration law. I dedicate myself to every case, handling each one personally. I believe this is the only way to effectively represent my clients. ​I attended New York University where I majored in Journalism and minored in Spanish. It was during my time when I studied in Madrid, Spain when I started becoming interested in helping people immigrate to the United States. I entered law school at Florida Coastal School of Law upon completing my undergraduate studies. I began representing immigrants during my second year of law school as an intern in the Immigrant Rights Clinic. Thanks to Professor Ericka Curran, an immigration attorney and clinical professor in the Immigrant Rights Clinic, I learned the fundamentals of immigration law, and even won cases. ​After law school, I was hired by the Law Office of M.A. Ramos and Associates in Laredo, Texas. During my time in Texas, I represented many immigrants in their applications for green cards, citizenship, and other immigration benefits. While in Laredo, a city with limits that come right up to the U.S./Mexico border, I learned how to manage a large caseload and I improved my Spanish language skills. ​Soon, the Solis Law Firm offered me a position with their firm in Chicago, Illinois. While it was difficult for me to leave my work family in Texas, being in Chicago offered me new opportunities. During my time with the Solis Law Firm, I represented hundreds of immigrants in their applications for permanent residence and citizenship. I also represented many immigrants in removal proceedings at the Immigration Court in Chicago. ​Finally, practicing immigration law became second nature to me. At that point, I knew it was time for me to open my own law office. The Law Office of William G. McLean III officially opened September 1, 2012. Since opening, I have taken dozens of cases and have already achieved a favorable outcome in many. I dedicate myself to my clients, offering highly personalized representation. I pride myself on personally taking and returning phone calls, e-mails, and messages. ​In a time when finding a good immigration lawyer is very difficult, I can represent you personally and effectively. I would like you to search very hard for the right immigration lawyer, but I know that after you meet me, the right choice for your attorney will become clear.

He luchado por los derechos de inmigrantes de todo el mundo. Soy bilingue en inglés y español y tengo años de experiencia. Me dedico a mis casos personalmente por lo cual yo creo es la única manera de representar efectivamente a mis clientes. ​Yo asistí a la Universidad de Nueva York donde estudié el periodismo y el español. Estudié en Madrid, España por un semestre, en lo cual me interesé a ayudar a los inmigrantes. En cuanto me gradué de la Universidad de Nueva York asistí a la Universidad de Florida para iniciar mis estudios en leyes. En mi segundo año como estudiante de derecho empecé a representar a inmigrantes como un interno legal. Gracias a la profesora Ericka Curran que es una abogada de inmigración yo aprendí los derechos fundamentales de las leyes de inmigración y gané unos casos. ​En seguida de graduarme de la escuela de derecho, trabajé en la Oficina de M.A. Ramos y Asociados en Laredo, Texas y representé a muchisimos inmigrantes en sus casos de residencia, ciudadanía, y aplicaciones para beneficios migratorios. La ciudad de Laredo está situada en la frontera de Mexico. Por eso aprendí como manejar una gran cantidad de casos y mejoré mis habilidades de español. ​Después La Oficina de Manuel Solis me ofreció una posición en Cicero, Illinois. Me sentí triste decir adiós a mis amigos y compañeros de trabajo en Laredo. Pero pensé que estando en la ciudad de Chicago se me presentarían muchas más oportunidades. Trabajando en la Oficina de Manuel Solis me dió el placer de representar a cientos de inmigrantes en sus diferentes casos migratorios. ​Finalmente conocí las leyes de inmigración en su totalidad y decidí abrir mi propia oficina en Chicago. La Oficina de William Gaston McLean III oficialmente abrió en el 1 de Septiembre, 2012. Desde entonces he tomado y ganado muchos casos. Me dedico personalmente en los casos de mis clientes. Me siento muy orgulloso de contestar personalmente las llamadas y dar respuestas personalmente a los mensajes. ​Hoy en día es muy difícil encontrarse a un abogado honesto y dedicado. Pero yo le aseguro en poder repostarlo personalmente. Debe buscar muy bien a un abogado, pero sé que cuando me encuentre va a saber que soy el abogado que usted necesita.
