Attorney Fees

Attorney fees vary based on the complexity of your case. A straightforward marriage green card case will cost less than a case involving prior denials, waivers, or other complications. We provide transparent pricing during your free initial consultation.

Important: Filing without proper legal representation may seem less expensive upfront, but errors, missed evidence, or a poorly prepared case can result in Requests for Evidence, delays, or outright denial — which cost far more to fix than proper preparation from the start.
