Family law cases involving non-citizens have become more complicated in the last few months. Family lawyers are not only faced with the complications that can arise in divorce, custody and support cases, but also must carefully consider the consequences of decisions and outcomes on a party’s immigration status.
Join experienced family law and immigration practitioners for a lunchtime webinar that will give family lawyers the information you need to know about immigration. The program will include a primer on federal immigration terms, organizations that can help your client, questions to ask during consultation or intake, and hypotheticals based on real life situations. These will include
the effect of visa status on financial support, what happens to an immigrant spouse who is divorcing someone with an employment-based visa, custody issues and domestic violence issues.
The program materials will include an easy to use list of questions and terms for your convenience.
