An experienced immigration attorney with knowledge of the U.S. immigration system can be an invaluable resource, especially for individuals without legal training or non-native English speakers. Choosing the right immigration attorney is extremely important. As a first step, always make sure you’re dealing with a licensed attorney and not a “visa consultant,” “notario,” or “petition preparer.” Also check to make sure any attorney you hire is in good standing with a licensing body, such as the Alaska Bar Association.
