The laws regarding immigration to the United States are extremely complicated, and involve federal statutes, regulations, and case law interpreting what the text of the law actually means. In addition, issues related to immigration law can have an impact on the most important aspects of a person’s life, including his or her ability to work and be with his or her family. For these and other important reasons, many individuals with legal issues related to immigration law choose to hire an attorney that practices exclusively in the area of immigration law to help them.
Some of the more common ways in which an immigration attorney can help are detailed below. For specific advice regarding your case, call Kriezelman Burton & Associates, LLC today.
Advises Individuals as to their Legal Options
Advising people regarding the legal option in regard to a particular matter is among the most important ways an immigration attorney can help individuals. The laws related to immigration are complex, and it may be difficult for an individual to determine whether a particular provision applies in his or her case. For example, for many people, there are various avenues they may pursue to obtain a green card, such as work-based or family-based immigration. In some cases, one may be significantly simpler than the other, saving the person both time and money. An attorney will be able to recognize this circumstance and advise a potential immigrant about the best course of action.
Assists Individuals with Immigration-Related Legal Matters in Preparing and Submitting Thorough Application Packages
Many matters related to immigration require the gathering of official documentation, as well as the completion of a significant amount of paperwork. Any errors or omissions in an immigration-related petition or filing could result in the delay or outright denial of an application. Fortunately, an attorney can help individuals who are submitting documentation to U.S. immigration authorities prepare their paperwork and ensure that the documents are complete, accurate, and comply with any procedural requirements that may exist. An attorney can prepare and submit formal arguments and explanations as to why a person is eligible for a certain benefit.
Represents People in Communications with Immigration Authorities
Individuals who apply for a change in their immigration status may be required to submit additional documentation or complete a personal interview if questions arise regarding their admissibility. The assistance of an attorney can often have a significant impact on the outcome of these matters, and may mean the difference between a favorable and an unfavorable result.
Represents Individuals in any Judicial Proceedings in which They May Become Involved
Sometimes, disputes regarding United States immigration law result in a lawsuit between an individual and the government. Because the government is a “repeat player” in these kinds of situations, it often has a distinct advantage when it comes to immigration disputes. Furthermore, a negative outcome of litigation regarding an immigration-related legal matter can often result in deportation or a determination of inadmissibility. For these and other reasons, it is extremely important for individuals to have the assistance of an attorney with a comprehensive understanding of immigration law.
