Most won't charge for an initial consult. If you'd like a referral, let me know! My office works with a few immigration firms in NYC who are very good

Yes please, could you pass their names?

Consult in Atlanta is $400 just for a datapoint. So I would guess anything less than $1,000 in NYC

I actually did an initial consultation recently with someone who seemed highly competent and the quote for the whole process from beginning to end was $10k

Nope no charge for the initial consult

$0-$100, but usually free. If an immigration firm charges for a consultation, they may credit it back to the legal fee.

Market for a marriage-based green card would be $5-7K plus filing fees. Consult is usually around $500. Credited towards legal fees if you engage within a week.

As a happy career-oriented single man. When I'm just focused on improving my career, thinking about work, just doing my thing. I notice women find me attractive, they're nice to me, want me to talk a little bit, and get annoyed or sad when I'm short with them. So I generally feel attractive.

But when I'm dtf, that attraction immediately dissappears. Is it me?
