Common questions
What exactly do immigration lawyers do?
Immigration lawyers help people navigate U.S. immigration laws. They prepare and file all necessary legal documents for applications and petitions. They represent clients in immigration court and before government agencies. Their goal is to achieve the best possible outcome for your case.
What not to tell the attorney?
Always be truthful and provide complete information to your immigration attorney. Do not lie, omit facts, or guess about legal matters. Stick to what you know to be true. Your attorney needs accurate information to build the strongest case for you.
What do immigration services do?
Immigration services can assist with filling out immigration forms and applications. They provide general information about the immigration process. However, they are not lawyers and cannot give legal advice. For legal counsel, you must consult an immigration attorney.
Can I call ICE immigration on someone?
Reporting someone to ICE is a serious action with significant legal consequences. It is not a tool for personal disputes. If you have questions about immigration laws or procedures, it is best to seek advice from an immigration lawyer.
Where can I get free immigration help?
Non-profit organizations and legal aid societies in Wisconsin offer free or low-cost immigration services. Look for reputable community groups. Some law schools may also have clinics. Always verify the legitimacy of any service offering help.
How does Wisconsin's climate affect immigration cases?
Wisconsin's severe winter weather, including heavy snow and ice, can cause court postponements and make travel hazardous. Attorneys must be prepared for these disruptions. We manage weather-related challenges to keep your case moving forward.
