What drives the price of green card application (attorney fees)
Attorney fees for a family-based green card usually cover preparing the petition and adjustment paperwork, assembling evidence, and getting you through the interview. Government filing fees are separate and substantial, so always check whether a quote is attorney-only or the full cost.
Complications move the price: prior visa overstays, a spouse abroad going through consular processing, or a request for evidence from USCIS can all add work. Some attorneys include RFE responses in the flat fee, some bill them separately, and that difference matters more than the sticker price.
Worth asking the shop
Does the fee include responses to requests for evidence and interview preparation? Are government filing fees included in this number? Who fills out and reviews the forms, an attorney or a paralegal?
