Use the search bar above and filter by "Asylum" as the case type. Compare attorneys and advisors by specialty, language spoken, location, verification status, and whether they offer free consultations. Always verify a prospective attorney's bar license through your state bar association before sharing sensitive documents.
An immigration attorney is a licensed lawyer (J.D. degree plus state bar admission) authorized to represent clients before USCIS, immigration courts, and federal courts. A Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) accredited representative is a non-attorney authorized by the U.S. Department of Justice to represent clients in immigration proceedings, typically through a nonprofit organization. Both can provide legal representation; attorneys have broader courtroom authority and can appear in federal court.
Immigration attorney fees vary widely depending on case complexity, geography, and experience. Initial consultations are often free or $100–$300. Asylum case representation typically ranges from $1,500 to $8,000 or more. Deportation defense and federal court appeals often cost more. Many nonprofit organizations, legal aid societies, and BIA-accredited representatives offer low-cost or free immigration legal services for income-qualifying individuals.
You are not legally required to have an attorney to file Form I-589, but studies consistently show that asylum applicants with qualified legal representation have significantly higher approval rates. Immigration law is complex and even small procedural errors can have serious consequences. A qualified immigration attorney or BIA-accredited representative can help you avoid mistakes and present your case more effectively.
Ask which state bar they are admitted to and use that state bar's online attorney lookup tool to confirm active membership and check for disciplinary history. Ask for their bar number. Confirm they will file Form G-28 to formally appear as your representative before USCIS. Beware of "immigration consultants," "notarios," or "document preparers" who claim to be attorneys — only licensed attorneys and DOJ-recognized BIA-accredited representatives can legally provide immigration legal advice.
Yes. The AsyClock Marketplace lets you filter advisors by language. You can find immigration professionals who speak Spanish, French, Haitian Creole, Arabic, Amharic, Portuguese, Mandarin, Russian, Vietnamese, Somali, and other languages commonly needed by immigrant communities in the United States.
Affirmative asylum is filed proactively with USCIS using Form I-589 by applicants not currently in removal proceedings. Defensive asylum is raised as a defense in Immigration Court when a person is already in removal proceedings. The 150-day and 180-day EAD eligibility rules that the AsyClock calculator tracks apply to affirmative asylum applicants. Both types of cases benefit significantly from qualified legal representation.
