FAQs
Do you offer free initial consultations?
We charge a consultation fee to discuss your immigration matter. While other firms may offer free consultations, these sessions are often rushed and primarily focused on securing your business rather than understanding your unique situation. Our firm takes a different approach. During your consultation, our attorneys dedicate the time and attention necessary to thoroughly review your case, answer your questions, and provide valuable insight into your immigration options. To schedule your consultation, call us today at (540) 339-6836.
How do I schedule a consultation?
You can schedule a consultation by calling our office at (540) 339-6836. We’ll coordinate with you to find a convenient time to discuss your immigration matter either by phone or at our office in downtown Roanoke, Virginia. We strive to schedule appointments as quickly as possible, depending on availability, typically within 24 to 48 hours.
How much will it cost to hire you for my case?
Legal fees for immigration cases typically range from $1,500 to $6,500, depending on the complexity and specifics of your situation. Factors affecting costs may include the type of application, the amount of documentation required, and whether any complications or special circumstances are involved. During your initial consultation, we will carefully review your case and provide a clear, detailed breakdown of anticipated costs and fees, ensuring you have full transparency from the beginning.
How long will the immigration process take?
The duration of the immigration process varies significantly based on your individual circumstances and the type of application or petition involved. Simple, straightforward matters may be resolved in just a few months, whereas more complex cases, such as family-based petitions, employment visas, or citizenship applications, often take considerably longer, ranging from several months to over a year or more. Delays can occur due to government processing backlogs, requests for additional evidence, or other administrative factors. During your consultation, we will evaluate your specific situation and provide a realistic timeline based on current USCIS processing trends, keeping you informed every step of the way.
