The RJ Agency family — Cebu
Our Story
A family-run firm, since 2005.
RJ Agency was founded in Cebu by Richard and Jenny Poirier — a husband-and-wife team who built the practice one client, one family at a time. Twenty years on, that same personal, hands-on care still runs through everything we do.
We're not a call centre and we're not a fixer. When you work with us, you work with real people who know your name and your case — from your first question to the day your papers come through.
