Me and my fiance r scared to do something wrong. we already been separated for 4 month and want to do everything right the first time so we can be together again asap. online u find tons of IMMIGRATION LAWYER that do it for a flat fee, but i am worried about scams. :help: Is anyone using an ONLINE LAWYER?

Meant to add:

We didn't use an online lawyer as such, we did find the info online but they have business premesis and do other cases too. We contact them on the phone etc and they are members of the BBB (better business bureau) in the USA.

I agree that you need to weigh the options and make the best decision for yourself. I personally think a lawyer wasn't necessary for my case. I was nervous about doing myself, also, but then I stumbled across VJ and read the guides, threads, and tons of info. After about a two weeks of hanging around here and studying everything, I realized that I could do it myself. I felt confident enough to tackle my own case based on the knowledge I gained and I applied without a lawyer. It's all up to you and how you feel. Best of luck!

yeah

just to add my opinion

i am just an ordinary guy

not overly smart

i just used this VJ forum

and filed myself

and did everything ok

if you just read, ask questions, and work at it

it is not hard and you can do yourself

but

i am not you

so i just wish you luck!!
