I believe it could be challenging to get a law firm to consider handling something like this on a... View More

PayPal is obligated to give you a refund if... View More

Once you submit the I-130 for your daughter, you'll be able to... View More

While you can legally own an LLC as an H-1B visa holder, actively managing or working for it could violate your visa terms, even if the work is unpaid. The key issue isn't ownership - it's about engaging in work outside your H-1B sponsorship.

A lawyer has a fiduciary duty of full disclosure to his client. The failure to disclose material information would be a breach of that duty. But there is a question what information he withheld and whether the withholding of that information caused you any damages.
My uncle had a room in his house that I was going to move into, but after I got my belongings in there he changed his mind but let me keep my things there for safe keeping and free storage. They moved to San Antonio and didn't tell me they discarded my things until after the fact.

You don't need a criminal defense attorney unless you're facing criminal charges (or may be soon.) If you're looking to sue regarding a possible civil rights violation, you'd want to look for a civil rights attorney or a personal injury attorney, more generally.
