The firm focuses on removal defense. It also handles adjustment of status, family petitions, naturalization, removal of conditions on green cards, waivers and BIA appeals.<\/p>\n<p>This meeting is built for people who received a Notice to Appear, are already in immigration court, have a removal order, or need an appeal or waiver reviewed. A Notice to Appear must list the nature of the proceedings and the charges against you. Federal law says how it must be delivered, as the <a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1229\/\">federal Notice to Appear rules<\/a> explain.<\/p>\n<p>The consultation looks at your facts. It does not start representation. In immigration court, a lawyer becomes your practitioner of record only by filing Form EOIR-28. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.17\">entry of appearance rules<\/a> set out that step.<\/p>\n<h2>What the Paid Consultation Covers<\/h2>\n<p>The consultation covers your papers, your deadlines and the relief your facts may support. Here is what the review includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Document review:<\/strong> your Notice to Appear, hearing notices, prior filings and any removal order, checked for accuracy.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hearing timing:<\/strong> the first hearing cannot be set sooner than 10 days after service of the notice, unless you ask for an earlier date in writing (<a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1229\/\">federal Notice to Appear rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Options to evaluate:<\/strong> possible relief such as cancellation of removal, adjustment of status or a waiver. These are options to weigh, not promised results.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Continuous presence:<\/strong> unless an exception applies, the continuous presence period ends when your Notice to Appear is served (<a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1229b\/\">cancellation of removal rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Adjustment limits:<\/strong> some people in unlawful status, other than immediate relatives, cannot use <a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1255\/\">adjustment of status rules<\/a> for that purpose.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Missed hearings:<\/strong> if you get oral notice of the consequences and miss a hearing without exceptional circumstances, you may be barred from certain relief for 10 years (<a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1229a\/\">removal proceedings rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Prior history:<\/strong> earlier visas, applications, status issues and family petitions already filed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You leave with a written list of documents to gather and the deadlines that matter most.<\/p>\n<h2>Fees and What Else You May Owe<\/h2>\n<p>The consultation fee is separate from government costs. Ask the office for the current consultation fee and payment options before you book.<\/p>\n<p>Plan for these extra costs:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Biometric fee:<\/strong> when a fee for an immigration court proceeding is paid to DHS, as provided in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1103.7\">8 CFR 1103.7(a)<\/a>, it must include an extra $30 for biometric information (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-103.7\">fee rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>Otherwise, if the fee is not paid or the Appeal Fee Waiver Request (Form EOIR-26A) is not filed within the specified time period, the appeal is not properly filed (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.38\">appeal rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li>The request must be accompanied by a properly executed affidavit or unsworn declaration made pursuant to 28 U.S.C. 1746 substantiating the inability to pay (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.24\">fee waiver rules<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Document costs:<\/strong> translations and certified copies are separate expenses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Ask how the consultation fee relates to any later representation fee. Get that answer in writing before you pay.<\/p>\n<p>If your matter falls outside what this firm handles, the office may refer you to another lawyer or firm. It will tell you before you book.<\/p>\n<h2>How Booking Works and What to Expect<\/h2>\n<p>Booking takes five steps, from first contact to a decision about representation. Each step is short.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Reach out:<\/strong> use the contact form, a phone call or a WhatsApp message. Share your country of birth, your case status and any hearing date.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Confirm the terms:<\/strong> the office confirms the consultation fee, payment options and meeting format before you pay.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pay and schedule:<\/strong> send court papers in advance when you can, so the review goes faster.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Attend the meeting:<\/strong> you receive a summary of issues, deadlines and suggested next steps.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Decide on representation:<\/strong> if you hire the firm, you sign a written agreement. The consultation alone does not create representation.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>Timing matters. After an Immigration Judge decides your case, a Notice of Appeal is generally due within 10 calendar days. Some asylum cases have 30 days (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.38\">appeal deadlines<\/a>). Tell the office at first contact if a hearing is close.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Clients Work With AG Immigration Law P.A.<\/h2>\n<p>AG Immigration Law P.A. focuses on removal defense.
