Find the Right Immigration Attorney
It is important to find the right attorney to handle your immigration case. There are plenty of stories about unscrupulous individuals who prey on immigrants, and the legal profession is not immune from those problems. Some people who prey on immigrants are not lawyers but give the false impression that they are attorneys. They are “notarios” or individuals who speak a foreign language and who may have some basic knowledge of the immigration law system. These non-lawyers often (but not always) charge less than an immigration attorney charges in fees. The problem is that non-lawyers often mishandle an immigration case, may take a fee but do no work at all, may disappear and be impossible to locate, or may damage an immigrant’s case and cause a deportation or loss of legal status.
