Verified ClientHired Attorney N. Georgette Marling 2020-2080As most people are aware, working with an attorney always means that there is a stressful event impacting one's life. Working with Georgette not only assisted in reducing that stress, but her care, concern, communication and work ethic made the experience as replay able as possible. Georgette balances her incredible level of expertise with a sense of approachable and kind realism that I have never encountered before in my numerous interactions with attorneys (both personally and professionally due to my academia background). I share this opinion with the agency director who employed me, of which our work with Georgette was a joint effort. Georgette knows what she is doing, is committed to achieving our goals, and cares about me as a human being and what I can offer this country and world with the achievement of our goals. Georgette is willing to work from any location and at any time of day (I am completely sincere with these statements) to achieve our immigration objectives. She is not just an immigration attorney, she is a solid human being who eternally recognizes and understands the big picture. I will forever be retaining Georgette as my attorney regarding anything immigration, and will invariably recommend her for any immigration issues that my friends and family might incur.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
