Coming to practice in Laredo, Texas

In 1983, Mr. Tellez decided to move to South Texas. He first came to Laredo, Texas as an associate of Attorney Allan Skinner.

In 1985, Jose Salvador Tellez left the office of Allan Skinner to open his own practice focusing on Immigration. As more opportunities arose through time he also began to litigate Federal and State Criminal Defense and Civil Law.

“One of my motivations to move to Laredo, Texas was that it was and still is very different than Illinois. In Laredo the majority of the residents are Latino while in the state of Illinois Latinos remain a minority.”
