“He who represents himself has a fool for a lawyer.”

The process of immigrating to the United States can be one of the most important life changing decisions that many people will experience. Many people will waste years of time and money by trying to navigate through U.S. Immigration law without an experienced attorney on their side.  Immigration law is one of the most politically charged areas of the American judicial system and is constantly changing and evolving. You need someone who knows the law and can give you fair and knowledgeable representation when dealing with government agencies. Two of the biggest mistakes that can affect your immigration are: 1) not hiring an attorney or  2) choosing the wrong attorney.

 Here are a few advantages to hiring an attorney: 

  • Due to experience and analytical training, an attorney can spot issues and problems in your case that you might not otherwise see until it's too late.
  • Experienced immigration attorneys have access to specialized information which allows them to solve problems quickly and correctly.
  • An immigration attorney has contact points in the government that may not be available to the general public.

  • Applicants Face Delays in Gaining Citizenship On January 11th, Federal officials agreed on an emergency plan to reduce the current delay in processing Citizenship applications. Under the terms of the plan which was first proposed by Senator Charles E. Schumer, the US Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) will  hire back about 700 retired government employees. This is certainly one step in the right direction for the USCIS to address its huge backlog of cases. According to the agency, the USCIS in July and August of 2007 alone received nearly 2.5 million applications and petitions of all types. This amounts to over a two fold increase in applications that it received for the same time last year. In fact, this fiscal year the agency has received 1.4 million naturalization applications alone. Consequently, the average processing time for naturalization applications filed after June 1, 2007 may take approximately 18 months. The USCIS plans to hire at least 1,500 new regular employees by the end of this year ....
