About Gil Manzano
Gil Manzano Jr. graduated from Northern Arizona University in 1999 and earned his J.D. from the University of the Pacific, McGeorge School of Law in 2004. He entered legal practice after law school and developed a practice that engages federal and state immigration law matters. His educational path combined a public university undergraduate degree with a law school that has an established program in public law and government practice.
Manzano is admitted to practice in Connecticut and is also admitted to the Ninth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court. Those admissions give him the formal ability to represent clients in federal appellate matters and to file matters at the highest federal level when cases warrant it. He has practiced under the name BestImmigrationLawyer.com, where he has served clients on a range of immigration-related matters.
His memberships include the Connecticut State Bar, the American Bar Association, and the American Immigration Lawyers Association. He maintains active memberships in those groups and participates in continuing legal education opportunities common to immigration practitioners. He has used those professional networks to stay current on evolving administrative and statutory developments that affect immigration practice.
In his work at BestImmigrationLawyer.com, Manzano handles matters that commonly arise in immigration law, including representation before immigration courts, administrative agencies, and federal courts when appeals are necessary. He addresses casework that ranges from benefit petitions to litigation in appellate venues. His admissions to the Ninth Circuit and the U.S. Supreme Court expand the procedural options available for higher-level appeals.
Colleagues describe him as methodical in case preparation. Clients have brought matters to him that require attention to deadlines and procedural detail. He works through factual records, gathers documentary support, and presents arguments in writing and at hearing when required. The practice environment at BestImmigrationLawyer.com involves both individual casework and coordination with other counsel on complex matters.
As of 2026, Manzano continues to practice through BestImmigrationLawyer.com, maintaining multiple office locations and representing clients in immigration matters across trial and appellate forums. His current practice focuses on immigration law, including proceedings before immigration authorities and federal courts.
