This article is designed to help provide for you not only a number of resources, but things to remember even after you’ve selected who you want to represent you.
First, the resources.
A very popular one is the website of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). This may be the most commonly used, and can help you localize your search, making it particularly easy for you to find immigration lawyers in Chicago, specifically.
Beyond that, the University of Michigan website has a section dedicated to helping people find matches between themselves and those that can represent them in court. Each resource pertains to a particular area of emphasis, such as free legal services (pro bono) and those with a focus on the university itself.
Two of the free services tools it lists are Pro Bono Net and the U.S. Department of Justice website, specifically the Executive Office for Immigration Review, where you can explore free of charge options. Insofar as University of Michigan-specific resources go, there is the Retained Immigration Counsel website, where you can find a directory of University of Michigan-endorsed immigration attorneys and a few others.
Once you use these resources to find for yourself a list of candidates, it’s important to remember that: they’re candidates, jockeying for your business. Interview them. Challenge them. Haggle with them. Find out what they’ve done, and what they intend to do for you. You may be in a tight spot. There may be dire consequences if you don’t get out of it. But at no point should you forget that you’re hiring someone to work for you.
Not the other way around.
Asylum seekers and immigrants are humans, and like every other human, they deserve respect and with the right kind of nurture, can add a lot to the greatness of the developed country
