Skilled, responsible immigration attorneys can clearly explain how the law affects your case. If they can't explain it, they probably don't understand it themselves. Immigration law consists of lots of "ingredients": statutes, regulations, policy memos, agency publications, administrative appeal decisions, federal caselaw, the current political climate, even agency policy manuals.
Knowing all these ingredients requires lots of study. Character is very important too. No one needs a lawyer who thinks and behaves like a rattlesnake. There's nothing casual about Immigration Law practice. A lawyer's commitment to his profession ultimately determines what becomes of people's lives, their hopes, and their family's well being.

Report
Immigration law consists of massive amounts of material to absorb. There is the INA, the Federal Regulations; case law to know, both the BIA and Federal Appellate cases; and then all the extra fun stuff to absorb - agency policy memos and directives, fact sheets, stakeholder meeting minutes, updates to agency manuals, articles.
Individual Immigration Law
Report
Immigration petitions and applications come in different varieties and with differing degrees of complexity. Some involve obtaining a straightforward benefit, for example naturalization (obtaining US citizenship). Other applications involve overcoming a burden of proof, for example establishing extreme hardship to a qualifying relative for an unlawful presence waiver.
Business Immigration Law
Report
Foreign National workers may come to the United States in nonimmigrant (temporary) or immigrant (permanent) status. Workers can also transfer to the US from a foreign company, to work in or to establish a US affiliate. Foreign entrepreneurs may even establish job-creating businesses in the US as a path to a green card.
Immigration Appeals
Report
For an immigration client, an appeal targets either a supervising officer at USCIS, the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) at the US Justice Department, the Administrative Appeals Office at DHS, or one of the Federal Appellate Courts. Appellate practice consists of writing appeal briefs and in the Federal courts, orally arguing the case.
Biden Era Immigration
Report
This is a general overview. Schedule a consultation if you need legal advice. What's written here can't be relevant unless I know your specific facts. Following anything blindly is asking for trouble even when you buy a car; with immigration matters, it can ruin your life. Biden plans to massively overhaul the immigration legal machinery, primarily through policies that are benevolent.
