We are Arturo and Natalia, two lawyers working hard in humanitarian, labor, and family immigration processes with the mission of promoting our clients’ immigration goals.
Our working relationship began when we collaborated on several complicated cases, representing clients pro-bono. This led us to realize how successful we are when we work together, and we decided to join forces to open our own firm.

Freddy Peláez
I have a degree in Nutrition and Dietetics but I have always had a deep social commitment, so I have enriched my professional profile with a master’s degree in development planning, mention in social policy, and specialized studies in public policy, gender equality, governance and leadership.
Throughout my career, I have worked as an expert in humanitarian and development social projects collaborating with INGOs, UN agencies such as UNICEF, WFP, UNHCR and UNFPA, as well as international donors, contributing to the welfare of vulnerable communities.
My interest in migration comes from my commitment to social justice and the creation of opportunities for all people.

Carlos
I graduated with a degree in Computer Information Systems from the University of Texas at El Paso, where I developed a strong foundation in technology and information management. Additionally, I hold certifications in Data Analysis from Google, further enhancing my expertise in the field. As an immigrant who recently became a resident after many years of perseverance, I have a deep appreciation for the challenges and opportunities that come with the immigration journey. My personal experience drives my passion for supporting others who have faced similar struggles.
Aine
My name is Aine, I studied Political Science and History at The University of Texas at El Paso, and was selected to be an Archer Fellow in Washington DC where I took classes on Policy Making while interning at the White House, studying diverse issues that affect the Latino community. Before Villar & Garcia, I've worked at another immigration law firm, and a civil litigation firm, but I like immigration a whole lot more. I like immigration a lot more because it's personal to me and my life, my best friend had DACA at a young age, and I saw how much she struggled just going through the process and not being able to receive any federal subsidies, not only that but just living in a binational community and coming from a family with mixed status, it's always important to give back. Hopefully someday, I'll become an immigration attorney and an immigration, labor lobbyist.
