Return-Path: Received: from ius5.ius.cs.cmu.edu by K.GP.CS.CMU.EDU id aa19415; 26 Jun 91 9:44:32 EDT Date: Wed, 26 Jun 91 09:42:54 EDT From: Jennifer.Kay@IUS5.IUS.CS.CMU.EDU To: bovik@CS.CMU.EDU Subject: Immigration lawyer Hi Dr. Bovik. I recently asked some questions about immigration lawyers and I only got one name from three people -- sounds like this is the guy who does most of the CMU stuff. Anyway, everyone seems to be happy with him so I thought you'd be interested. Here's one letter I got that has his address and phone number too! -- Jennie ---------------------------------------------------------------- I recently got a green card after several years of tedious paperwork and procedures; I could not imagine doing this without the help of a lawyer. Your situation may be different (getting married wasn't part of my picture), but I believe that dealing with the INS and Labor Dept. is painful no matter what. Just getting straight information on what to do and - more importantly - what NOT to do can require a significant amount of research effort. Although lawyers are expensive, I'd recommend at least getting advice on the overall process and your situation in particular. You may find that doing the paperwork yourself after that is feasible. The lawyer who helped me is John Brendel - he specializes in immigration law and handles most, if not all, of CMUs cases in this area.
