How we ranked these immigration lawyers
We collected immigration lawyer results from Google Maps around Richmond and removed government offices and unrelated businesses. Each listing gets a score based on its Google rating, adjusted for the number of reviews so a few 5-star reviews do not outrank hundreds of strong ones. Listings that also show up in Google's top results get a small boost. Paid placements are always labeled "Sponsored" and never change the ranked list. Read our editorial policy.
Immigration lawyers in Richmond: FAQs
Do I need an immigration lawyer to get a green card in Richmond?
No. Many people file Form I-485 on their own. A lawyer is optional. People often hire one when their case has a problem, such as a past denial, a criminal record, a visa overstay or removal proceedings. If your case is simple, you can save money and file yourself. A short consultation can still help you decide.
How do I choose an immigration lawyer in Richmond?
Start with the list above, then check each firm on Google and on its own website. Look for someone who handles cases like yours. Ask what the first meeting costs and who will work on your file. Ask how they will keep you updated. Meet one or two lawyers before you decide. Pick someone you feel comfortable asking questions to.
Can a lawyer help with the medical exam or Form I-693?
Not with the exam itself. Only a USCIS-designated civil surgeon can do the exam and sign Form I-693. A lawyer can remind you to file the signed form with your Form I-485, since USCIS generally requires them together. The civil surgeon must sign the form no more than 60 days before you file. Keep the sealed envelope closed.
