Catholic Charities Legal Services,
Archdiocese of Miami,
Inc (CCLS) provides professional immigration services and attorney
representation before the
Citizenship and Immigration
Service,
the Immigration Courts and the Board of Immigration Appeals.
CCLS provides pro bono services
to individuals and family to those who qualify based on income,
elibigility status, and the availability of resources. For those
who do not qualify for free services, CCLS may represent you based
on a sliding fee scale. For those who can afford a private attorney,
CCLS encourages you to seek the services of a qualified immigration
attorney.
CCLS suggests that you utilize
the services of members of the American Immigration Lawyers Association.
We will be happy to refer you to a qualified immigration attorney
should we determine that we cannot help you.
