Consultations

It all starts with your consultation.

Whether you call, email, or contact us here, we will ask you to set an initial consultation. During your consultation, you will meet with attorney Veronica to discuss your case and find out how we can best help you. Each consultation is different, but the following guides will help you understand your initial consultation.

Immigration

We do charge for immigration consultations. When you make your appointment, we will ask for some basic information about your question or your case. We may ask you to submit this information online, if that is more convenient for you. When you come to your initial consultation, bring the following, if you have it (if we are meeting virtually, we will discuss how to send your documents):

  • Any documents that are related to your case, that may be used as supporting documents, or that may help explain your case
  • Any documents or correspondence you may have from the immigration service, or immigration court
  • Information about your entries and exits from the United States, particularly your most recent entry into the US
  • Information on any prior or current criminal issues in the US or anywhere
  • Copies of any documents from any prior immigration case or issue

Workers’ Compensation – Employees

Workers’ compensation consultations are always free for injured workers. When you make your appointment, we will ask for your date of injury, basic facts about your claim, and information about your job and your employer. We may ask you to submit this information online, if that is more convenient for you. You should bring the following, if you have it, to your initial consultation (if we are meeting virtually, we will discuss how to send your documents):

  • First Report of Injury or any related injury/incident report
  • Any related documents or correspondence – this could include documents from the Office of Administrative Hearings (OAH, workers’ compensation court), Department of Labor & Industry, your employer, or workers’ compensation insurer

  • All bills you’ve received for treatment or other costs related to the claim

You should also try to have the following information available, if possible:

  • Health insurance information
  • Information for any other entity that may have paid benefits related to this claim, including other insurers
