- Q. Can I sue a company for leaving a trailer illegally parked, causing a car accident in Florida?
- A: You should retain a competent personal injury attorney here in Florida to represent you on contingency fee which means you pay nothing unless you win. If the police report has given the company a citation for a traffic ticket, your case would be much stronger. Hopefully you took some pictures to bring the scene of the accident to life. We are not allowed to solicit your case on this website. However, you can research our backgrounds and reach out to one of us.
- Q. Seeking guidance on I-130 family petition for a parent, eligibility, challenges, and low-cost legal aid.
- A: A US citizen child over the age of 21 can sponsor their parent for a green card. If the parent is overseas, you can sponsor them and they would process at the US consulate in their country of residence. If the parent is inside the United States, you can sponsor them for adjustment of status and they can get a green card, even if they have overstayed their visa. The average fee for lawyers in the United States to handle these cases is at the very low of $1500 flat fee and a very high of $10,000 flat fee. Some of us charge at the very low end of this rate in order to accommodate people that are in your situation. You can research our backgrounds and reach out to one of us.
- Q. Should we hire a lawyer for Form I-751 or file on our own?
- A: A percentage of applicants will file the 751 form themselves, but a large percentage of applicants will hire an attorney to represent them through the process. There are many details and documents that need to be compiled to make sure that the application is correct. Accordingly, by hiring an attorney, you may avoid delays or an outright denial.
