# What an immigration legal provider listing shows

Every listing shows the provider name, address, phone number, provider type and the source of its facts. Some listings also show languages, case types, fee level and remote services when the source states them.

Updated 2026-10-20. Also on the [web page](https://immigrationhelp.fyi/guides/what-a-listing-shows).

Each listing on this site names the public register its facts come from. Most come from registers that the US Department of Justice publishes.

The provider name is the name on the register. It may be an organization name from the DOJ roster or a provider name from the EOIR pro bono list. The address is the office address the register publishes.

The phone number is the number the source states. If no phone number appears, the source did not include one. Check the provider's own website.

The website field links to the provider's own site when a source states it. The DOJ roster publishes only name, office address and phone. So many listings from the roster have no website.

Categories group providers by type. Each listing belongs to one or more categories, such as recognized organizations or pro bono providers.

Provider type is the key attribute on every listing. It tells you the kind of DOJ authorization the source states. A recognized organization is a non-profit that the DOJ EOIR Recognition and Accreditation Program recognizes to give immigration legal services. An accredited representative is a person the DOJ accredits to represent individuals in immigration matters while working for a recognized organization. A pro bono provider is on the EOIR List of Pro Bono Legal Service Providers, which covers each immigration court.

A listing is about an organization, not each person in it. A listing does not prove that each staff member may give legal advice. Check the person who handles your case. A licensed lawyer appears on a state bar register. An accredited representative appears on the DOJ EOIR roster.

Languages show the languages the source states. An empty languages field does not mean the provider speaks only English. It means no source stated the languages.

Case types show the immigration matters the source states the provider handles. Examples on this site include asylum, removal defense and Special Immigrant Juvenile Status. This field is filled only when a source names the case types. Ask the provider what cases it takes.

Fee level is shown only when the source says the service is free or low-cost. An empty fee field means the fee is unknown. It does not mean the provider charges high fees. Confirm fees with the provider before you share information or pay.

Remote services is marked only when a source states that the provider serves clients remotely. An empty field means unknown. Ask the provider.

The source note names the register each fact came from and the date the site checked it. Use it to check the facts on the original register at justice.gov.

Beware of immigration fraud. In the United States a notario or immigration consultant is not a lawyer and cannot represent you. This site never lists them. Only a licensed lawyer, or a DOJ-accredited representative working for a DOJ-recognized organization, may give you immigration legal advice. This guide is not legal advice. For your own case, ask a qualified professional.

> **Not legal advice.** ImmigrationHelp is a directory, not a law firm. Nothing on this site is legal advice, and using it does not create an attorney-client relationship. A listing is not a recommendation. Every provider listed is authorized by the US Department of Justice as shown in the source named on each listing; confirm details with the provider before you share information or pay. Beware of immigration fraud: a 'notario' or immigration consultant is not a lawyer and cannot represent you. To report a mistake, write to hello@immigrationhelp.fyi.
