Legal Question in Immigration Law in Washington

212 c and 1-191

My son is involved in a 212c action. Attorney also submitted a 1-191, without informing me, his client. How serious is the 212c and the need to submit the 1-191. My attorney is not very good at communicating with me. His fee is 4000 DOLLARS plus expenses. Is this a reasonable fee?

Re: 212 c and 1-191

Submitting a Form I-191 is part of the 212(c) process. You said that you are the client - however, if your son is the one in deportation proceedings, there are certain actions that your attorney MUST take to ensure he/she is acting zealously on your son's behalf. A 212(c) case involves a lot of preparation - the fee is not unreasonable. You may want to schedule a meeting with your attorney to address your concerns. Good luck!
