Well the primary reasons why lawyers are used is for a faster process... Their familiarity with the law etc. Honestly a lawyer isn't necessasy UNLESS you will have a complicated case...!

I'm not quite sure to have understood the meaning of your message, but if I got it correctly, then hiring a lawyer may make the process slower for the part of filling the forms and sending the application. Just think that a lawyer has several cases at once, not only yours, and if he has to go to the post office today, christmas eve, to send your stuff out, he will more than likely do it next monday (or even after new year's eve).

Once USCIS has your documents, it's irrelevant whether you have a lawyer or not, because their processing times are the same and there is nothing a lawyer can do (for better or for worse).

for sure a lawyer will send you his invoice, so unless you have a complicated case, I'd say you don't need one to fill a couple of forms with the info that YOU will have to provide anyway and mail them.

good luck.
