Sure they are, remember you usually get what you pay for. Quoting LingChe's shortcut:

"GENERAL NOTES:

  • 1: If the beneficiary’s interview will be in their native country, all documents from that country may not need to be translated. All documents from outside their native country should be translated in English with an accompanying certification from the translator, and the original language documents.
  • 2: If you’d like to be safe, you may translate all documents into English, with certification and original language documents.

  • 3: Make 2 copies of each package before you send it. That way you can send one package to your spouse for review, and you can have a copy ready to go incase something gets lost or is questioned.

  • 4: Don't rely on AVR system; try to talk to an operator.

  • 5: A HUGE SPECIAL THANKS goes out to all the Aug. 2008 folks that gave us feedback on their journey, and helped us to make this guide what it is.

  • 6: Wondering what to do with the money this guide has saved you (instead of hiring a lawyer)? Master Rajaa Reda says, "invest iinto a nice laptop and printer... less money and it'll get the s/o here faster."

any free immigration attorney to assigning filing I-130 ?

Just find the nearest place serving free lunch and ask for an attorney. Simple stuff. NOT. You really were joking, right?

Is there a particular reason you feel you would need an attorney? Generally the I-130 packet can be assembled and filed easily yourself. It is only when you have a complicated issues that you may need the help of an attorney.

if it's a forms problem, get a teenager to help you , give them some cash and a new gameboy.

Sometimes my language usage seems confusing - please feel free to 'read it twice', just in case !
Ya know, you can find the answer to your question with the advanced search tool, when using a PC? Ditch the handphone, come back later on a PC, and try again.

You usually won't be able to hire a lawyer for free. But you may find a lawyer willing to help you a bit for free at your local library or church or mosque or wherever you congregate to commune with your Maker. Be advised that you will get crappy advice.

Instead, you should use VJ. We help you our a lot with your process. A lot of us have gone through this process and have become expert. You can follow the various guides on VJ. Anything you don't understand, you ask us on VJ. It will have you thousands of dollars. Which you can use for your flights or you can use it to buy an awesome gaming computer.
