Can I use the same lawyer for the entire family?

In the context of the U visa, intended for victims of certain crimes and their families, it is common to have questions about the possibility of using the same lawyer for all family members involved.

Many families prefer a single professional to ensure consistency in strategy and alignment of information, respecting the particularities of each case.

Each petition is evaluated individually by the immigration authority, but the family relationship can be considered in the overall analysis.

It is essential that the lawyer has experience with the U visa and knows U.S. immigration laws to avoid risks and guarantee the proper progress of the case.

It is recommended to have a detailed consultation and be cautious with unfounded promises, always seeking specialized and reliable guidance.
