We are about to start this process, and I have been receiving mixed messages over whether or not I should be engaging the services of an Immigration Attorney to help with it. 

 

However, I know that this doesn't come cheap so I only want to do it if it is really going to benefit us to do so.

 

Could anyone offer any advice on this please? Is it straight forward enough to go through the process ourselves, or should I be looking at using a specialist?

 

Will having an Immigration Attorney speed up the process, reducing the time between filing the I-130 Petition to receiving my Interview invitation?

 

Thanks for your help, in advance.

Trust me, when you get your I-130 in and receive your NOA1 you'll feel a lot more comfortable.
