How to Choose an Immigration Attorney
Choosing the right attorney can feel like a big decision, especially when so much is at stake. Here are practical questions to guide that choice, without needing any legal background yourself.
Questions worth asking
- Are you licensed and in good standing with your state bar?
- How much experience do you have with cases like mine specifically?
- What is your fee structure, and is it in writing?
- Who will actually be working on my case day to day?
- How will you communicate with me, and how often?
What a first consultation typically looks like
A good first conversation should feel unhurried and judgment-free. You should leave with a clearer sense of your general options, even if there's more work to do before a full plan is set.
