When to see an attorney first

Talk to an immigration attorney or a DOJ-accredited representative before filing if you have ever been arrested, had a deportation or removal order, been in immigration court, had an application denied, or entered the U.S. without inspection. A form filed in the wrong situation can create serious problems. Rosa will tell you plainly when your case needs legal advice.

Beware of anyone calling themselves a notario. In the United States, a notary public is not an attorney and cannot give immigration advice.
