Question 1

How do I know if I qualify for any type of immigration benefit?

Accepted Answer

Every case is different. At The Legal House, we start by reviewing your personal and immigration history to identify possible legal options. We don’t assume—we listen, evaluate and then guide. You can book an initial consultation to explore your options safely.

Question 2

What is the difference between VAWA and a U Visa?

Accepted Answer

Both protect victims, but they apply to different situations:
 • VAWA is for individuals who suffered abuse by a U.S. citizen or permanent resident spouse or relative.
 • U Visa is for victims of certain crimes (like assault or domestic violence) who cooperated with law enforcement.
 We can help you understand which path fits your story—without putting your future at risk.

Question 3

Can I apply for work authorization while waiting for my case?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the type of case. Some immigration petitions allow work permits while others don’t. We’ll clarify what’s possible for you, so you don’t fall into misinformation or promises that could harm your record.

Question 4

What happens if I already have a removal (deportation) order?

Accepted Answer

You still may have options. We can evaluate if a motion to reopen, a waiver, or another form of relief could apply in your situation. The most important thing is not to wait or act without legal guidance.

Question 5

Do I need a lawyer to file my immigration paperwork?

Accepted Answer

While it's possible to file some forms on your own, immigration law is complex and mistakes can lead to delays or denials. In The Legal House, we believe you deserve legal care—not just paperwork. We’re here to walk with you through every step, with honesty and empathy.
