How we ranked Foley immigration lawyers

How to choose an immigration lawyer

  1. Check the lawyer’s status and any public discipline in the state bar or law society directory.
  2. Ask how many immigration law matters the lawyer handles each year, and who at the firm will do the work.
  3. Get the fee arrangement in writing: hourly, flat or contingency, and which costs are charged on top.
  4. Ask how and how often the firm will update you, and how fast it answers calls and emails.
  5. Read recent reviews for how the firm communicated and billed, not only for outcomes.
  6. Check the lawyer is in good standing with a state bar or law society; immigration lawyers can be licensed in any state.
  7. Meet more than one firm; many offer a short first consultation, sometimes free.

Questions to ask an immigration lawyer

  • How do you charge, and what will the total likely cost?
  • Who will be my main contact, and how quickly do you reply?
  • What are my options, and what are the risks of each?
  • Which government fees are not included in your fee?
  • Is there any conflict of interest that would stop you representing me?
