LawInfo Expands Free National Directory to Include Qualified Immigration Attorneys

LawInfo.com now provides a way in which the public and professionals alike can locate a pre-screened, pre-qualified immigration lawyer in their area. In an effort to guarantee professional, unparalleled U.S. Immigration representation, Lawinfo administers a detailed screening process for immigration attorneys that verifies state bar admission, peer approval and recommendations, a proven high rate of case and trial success, and no pending disciplinary action.

(PRWEB) November 28, 2007 -- LawInfo has expanded its free online national directory to include U.S. immigration attorneys. These attorneys are a part of LawInfo's signature service, the Lead Counsel Program, which provides pre-qualified, pre-screened immigration lawyers through a simple, 2-click accessible attorney directory. The Lead Counsel Program has resulted in the enhanced screening of attorneys' credentials and has become a symbol of quality assurance for consumers searching for legal representation.

Immigration deals with the laws and processes that permit persons who are not U.S. citizens to come to the United States for temporary or permanent means; i.e. visiting as a tourist, working in the United States, studying in the United States and/or becoming a U.S. citizen, and subsequently includes the associated legal rights, duties and obligations of aliens in the United States. Immigration attorneys deal with the application processes and procedures involved with naturalization of foreign nationals who wish to become U.S. citizens, as well as deal with legal issues relating to people who are refugees or asylees, and those who cross U.S. borders by fraud or other illegal means. Immigration attorneys also help obtain U.S. work visas or other type of visas for temporary workers, help foreign citizens obtain green cards, help those immigrating to the U.S. for education, and can assist those who wish to adopt a child from another country (international adoption).

American immigration law is one of the most politically divisive areas of the legal system and it is constantly changing. Although many people turn to government agencies that administer immigration for help and advice, this can prove detrimental because unlike licensed immigration attorneys, government agencies have no responsibility or liability for the information they provide. Further, information officers are usually not adequately trained in immigration law nor do they keep up with the latest updates. Individual cases differ dramatically and agencies do not have the resources to properly assess your case and give you legal advice on how to proceed. Consulting with a qualified and experienced immigration attorney, as offered through the Lead Counsel program, can assure that your immigration matters will be handled in the most efficient and timely way possible.

For over a decade, LawInfo's mission has been to assist the public in locating qualified attorneys and legal services.
