Why Choose a U.S. Visa Lawyer Over a Consultant?
When managing the U.S. visa process, it is crucial to understand the difference between a licensed immigration lawyer and a consultant.
While both may assist with visa applications, only a licensed U.S. immigration attorney can provide full legal representation. This means a lawyer not only advises you but also has the authority to act on your behalf in all legal matters related to immigration.
Immigration consultants, on the other hand, typically offer guidance or help fill out forms, but are limited in what they can legally do. They cannot represent you before U.S. government agencies or courts, nor can they file appeals if your application is denied. This can leave applicants vulnerable to mistakes or missed opportunities for legal relief.
A U.S. visa lawyer is trained and licensed to handle all aspects of immigration law. This includes preparing and submitting complex petitions and applications, responding to Requests for Evidence (RFEs), and representing clients in appeals or motions to reopen cases. Moreover, only lawyers can communicate directly and officially with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the Department of State, and immigration courts on your behalf.
At Gehis Immigration and International Legal Services’ Bangalore office, we provide local access to such qualified U.S. immigration attorneys. This means clients in Bangalore can benefit from professional, trusted legal support without needing to travel abroad. Our team guides you through every step of the visa process with personalized attention, ensuring your case is handled with the highest legal expertise and care standards.
Choosing a licensed U.S. immigration lawyer from Gehis ensures you are protected, informed, and well-prepared, giving you the best possible chance of a successful outcome in your U.S. visa journey.
