Q: can reviewing already filled immigration petition forms be done under free consultation by a lawyer?
I have followed the instructions on USCIS website, I have filled forms I-130,I-130A,I-485,I-864 and I-765 and gathered all the required documents. I am tired of lawyers telling me stuff I can get on USCIS website and other sites and calling it free consultation. I need a free legal immigration clinic to review my forms be I send it in.
A: There is some liability for an attorney to even review forms they’ve not completed; if something goes wrong, they could be held liable. It is thus unlikely that anyone would be willing to review them for free. You might try a non-profit agency that works with refugees and immigrants.
