How does it work?
The Case Analysis Meeting
We give you legal advice from day 1. Your first meeting is not a “quicky” conversation. You will spend up to an hour talking to a lawyer who will analyze your case and provide you legal advice and guidance, so even if we don’t end up representing you in your case, you will have a roadmap for going forward.
What cases we do not take ?
(1) We do not work with employment-based or related immigration (including employment-based green cards, H-1Bs, National Interest Waivers, O Visas, P Visas, H-2As/H-2Bs, L Visas).
(2) We do not assist with people looking to move out of the United States. We only assist with immigration to the United States
(3) We do not do non-immigration work, including divorces, child custody, landlord issues, work-related issues, etc…
We handle most other types of immigration work, and you can see the complete list on our SERVICES PAGE.
How we bill?
The most important thing on your mind when you call us is securing your immigration status or the immigration status of someone you love. We get it.
We also get that you want to know how much your case will cost. We won’t hide the ball.
We try hard to provide an accurate estimate of the costs of your case, and we will tell you that at our case analysis meeting.
We bill almost exclusively by the hour. We ask for a retainer payment to get started, and we will pay ourselves for our time from that retainer. Once the retainer has been depleted, we will ask you to replenish it, so we can always be assured that our work will be compensated.
Given the current environment, and all of the rapid changes that are occurring, we cannot quote a fixed or flat fee.
We do offer some, limited, payment plan options, but since almost all of our work will be completed within the first couple of months of representation, we also expect that our fees will be paid in that time.
