2) My little sister's application package was REJECTED because they FORGOT to attach the MONEY ORDERS.

3) My little sister's application package was REJECTED AGAIN because after resending it the SECOND time they forgot to reattach the I-821D and I-765 forms.

Time is wasted. Now her wait time is going to be prolonged due to the fact that now they are inundated with so much more applications. All of this is unnecessary. In hindsight, we were capable of doing this ourselves not only in a timely manner but also $4,500 richer.

Excuse the rant.
Im sorry to hear you didnt have the best experience. Its not fair cause we put our trust into these attorneys who SUPPOSEDLY know what they are doing, and when it doesnt turn out the way we expect it because of a negligence of their firm it makes us think its all a waste of money, (cause it is if they are the one messing up).
But with that said... when things DO go as planed, it is most definately worth it id say. I too have had my bad experiences with attorneys and their firms, PURE NEGLIGENCE has caused us to lose so much $$$$$... but I found a diffrent attorney And thank God the couple of times my family and I have needed his assistance they have done a good job.
SOMETIMES ITS GIVE AND TAKE?!!

My attorney charged me $1,500 not including form.
I pretty much had to do everything including finding someone
else to translate my birth certificate and here's the
Funny / messed up part... back in July she told me that
all I needed was only birth certificate, tx id, and diploma.
well then turns out she didn't mail the application till mid
October cuz "I failed to submit more information " and
she thought I wanted to take my time with this!!!?! Really?

There are ways to report law firms like this one. I can ask my lawyer what you can do (she is a family friend) keep in touch with me if you would like via inbox. That is so not right that they charged you 1,500 that is INSANE regardless the state. My fee I know would have included the translations because they do that in their office they have a girl who is certified. I only paid $350 and she mailed it the day we finished putting the folder together, and I only went about 2 times. I brought everything I thought I needed the first and the second I brought exactly what else she said to bring. Regardless they did a crappy job for you for a very expensive price which is not legal I believe because they failed to give you the correct service. If you want me to find out how to go about it let me know and I will make a call.

Oh by the way my lawyer told me if there was something wrong with my application it would not affect MY status and MY application because when you hire an attorney it is their fault if something is wrong so that was one perk of hiring a lawyer.

My attorney charged me $1500 but it included looking into some of my criminal issues.

She lagged like crazy so I fired her today. She still hasn't riviewed my case or looked into anything she promised to do. Filed a charge back with my financial institution. Might just file without an attorney.
