Legal Question in Immigration Law in California
If I came illegally to the US since I was 11 years old with my father, I'm 25 now, What are the chances I can obtain my residency? How much will I spent? How long will it take?

You will be ineligible to adjust status in the United States, since now you have accrued 7 years of illegal presence. If you leave the U.S., you'll be barred from re-entry for 10 years.
The only way to obtain U.S. Legal Permanent Residency, in your situation, would be if you marry a U.S. citizen and if you qualify for a Waiver of Inadmissibility (or, if the law changes in the future).
