| Our Values _______ |
We would like to take some time to explore some of the core values of our firm,
including how we approach the attorney-client relationship, what you can expect
from us, what we expect from a client, and how we attempt to structure our fees.
While everybody is different and comes from a different walk of life, we have found
that we do business better with clients who share our fundamental values. In our
experience, this enables us to have a much more relaxed, friendly, and mutually
helpful relationship, minimizes everybody's effort while increasing productivity and
collaboration.
We believe that each human being deserves respect, fairness, and to be
treated with dignity.
This goes both ways. As immigration lawyers, we hold ourselves to high
standards in attempting to minimize your inconvenience, cost, confusion and at
times a sense of loss and desperation while entangled in a maddening intricate
legal system. At the same time, we expect similar respect from clients. That is why
we ask you not to abuse our open-door policy when it comes to initial
consultations, follow ups on trivial issues, or processing times that are beyond
our power to expedite.
WE WILL NOT CONDUCT ANY BUSINESS WITH PEOPLE WHO EXHIBIT
UNETHICAL, RUDE, PROFANE, OR DISRESPECTFUL BEHAVIOR TOWARDS
ANYBODY. VERBAL OR WRITTEN HARASSMENT FROM A CLIENT WILL NOT BE
TOLERATED AND THE CLIENT WILL BE TERMINATED IMMEDIATELY.
Additionally, we do not do business with people who expect something for
nothing. While we attempt to keep our fees moderate, please take the time to
consider the many years of training and experience needed to gather the
resources to help you, the costs associated with continuing legal education and
bar association memberships, our constant attempt to keep abreast of an
ever-changing legal landscape, the need to use of electronic databases to collect
your information and the subscriptions to electronic libraries necessary to
perform the apparently simple task to render even a five-minute legal opinion.
If you are not keeping this in the back of your mind, you will not appreciate our help
and we ask that you refrain from requesting it. Also, consider the advantages and
potential costs savings associated with availing yourself of the knowledge of a
skilled immigration lawyer who may spare you from committing potentially serious
missteps along the way. You should consider the legal fees an insurance policy
and an investment in your future.
While we try to price our services fairly and upfront, if unforeseen difficulties
arise we reserve the right to renegotiate our initial fee structure with the
mutual agreement of the client.
This is due to the quirkiness of dealing with a legal system that is becoming
increasingly unpredictable. This also allow us to keep our initial fees moderate for
everybody, knowing that we do not need to provide for every conceivable
contingency.
Lastly, we try to be fair but we are not and do not want to be the cheapest attorneys
out there. If you are shopping for an attorney based on price alone, please do not
waste our time. We prefer to deal with seriously interested people only who
perceive a need for, and value in, retaining our services.
If you want to hire a cheap attorney, you are certainly free to do so, just remember
that sometimes you get what you pay for. We are a boutique firm with a warm and
personal relationship with each client. This has a cost associated with it. For
those who are willing to share it, we are willing to help.
