New York, NY immigration attorney Robert B. Scott discusses the benefits of having a lawyer to handle your immigration case. He states that engaging a lawyer for an immigration case is a highly personal decision. While it is not mandatory to have legal representation, clients greatly benefit from working with an attorney who has experience with cases like theirs. Such an attorney can navigate potential challenges, identify weaknesses that might otherwise go unnoticed, and address issues that the client may not even consider significant.
He notes that many people initially attempt to handle their cases on their own, only to encounter roadblocks they cannot overcome. Often, resolving these problems independently can be more costly than retaining an experienced attorney from the start. While having a lawyer is not strictly necessary, he emphasizes that it is almost always a very wise decision to have an immigration attorney manage such a critical matter.
