1. Intake Screening to Understand Your Unique Circumstances and Needs

  • When you first contact us, whether by phone, email, or through our website form, you will be greeted by our compassionate and caring intake team.
  • Their role is to listen, understand your situation, and determine whether your case falls within our areas of expertise.
  • If your matter is something we can assist with, our intake team will guide you toward the next step: scheduling a consultation with one of our experienced immigration attorneys. Consultations are primarily available via video conference with some availability for in-person meetings at our Berkeley, California office.
  • If we are not the right fit for your case, we will still do our best to point you in the right direction by offering referrals to other offices or organizations that may be able to help. Our goal is always to support you, even if it means connecting you elsewhere.

2. In-Depth Consultation With an Experienced Immigration Attorney

  • Once your consultation is scheduled, our intake team will send you a confirmation email with a Zoom link (or in-person details if you prefer to meet in our Berkeley office).
  • To make sure we can provide you with the most personalized legal advice, you will complete a short online questionnaire and upload relevant documents before the meeting. This preparation allows your attorney to carefully review your situation ahead of time, so your consultation can focus on clear guidance, tailored recommendations, and answering your most pressing questions.
  • Our initial consultation fee is $400, payable online prior to the meeting.
    You will arrive at your consultation knowing your attorney is ready to support you in making the best decisions for yourself and your family.

3. Working With Our Team on Your Immigration Matter

  • If you decide to move forward with us, we will send your contract electronically for review and signature, along with instructions for submitting your deposit.
  • Once these steps are completed, your case officially begins.
  • You will be paired with both a lead attorney and lead paralegal, but you will also have the full support of the entire Stouffer Law team. This includes attorneys with decades of experience in immigration, including a Certified Specialist in Immigration Law with the California State Bar, experienced immigration paralegals, and dedicated support staff.
  • We work collaboratively, which means you always have a team behind you, responding whenever you have questions or new circumstances you want to discuss.
  • Our hands-on approach and deep engagement in the broader immigration community keep us at the forefront of changes in immigration law and policy, allowing us to navigate any shifts in your case with confidence and care.
  • As soon as you hire us, we will walk you through a thorough onboarding process. This will help you understand how we communicate, what steps to expect, and how we work efficiently and effectively on your behalf. From the first day to the last when we celebrate together, we will be with you at every stage of the journey.

If you are ready to start, or simply want to learn more, we are here to help.
