Beware of Immigration Scams

‍STOP! it is more important than ever to seek advice from a qualified immigration attorney or an accredited representative about your specific situation.

STOP! It is more important than ever to seek advice from a qualified immigration attorney or an accredited representative about your specific situation. BE PATIENT and take the time to find the right help. The wrong advice could harm your chances of staying in the United States, getting lawful status, or becoming a U.S. citizen.

DON’T BE FOOLED by notarios, consultants, or immigration scams promising immediate results or special solutions in order to steal your money. Many unscrupulous notarios cost more than licensed attorneys! If you are unsure if someone is qualified to help, ask for proof of their credentials, and retain a copy of that evidence.

DON’T USE notaries or paralegals. There is no licensing for paralegals (notarios) to give advice on legal cases and the steps to take or forms to fill out. They may only act as a secretary to type into a form the information that you provide. They do not hold degrees, licenses or certifications. It is the same as asking your family friend to google information online and filling out a form. Don't risk your family's future, heartaches, time lost, incorrect applications or denials to the unlicensed practice of law.

TALK to a qualified immigration attorney, ASK questions before making payments, and REPORT notarios who are trying to take advantage of you or your family.
