Lawyer2Lawyer: Competence and the Immigration Bar
A recent decision of the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals opened with these words: "With disturbing frequency, this Court encounters evidence of ineffective representation by attorneys retained by immigrants seeking legal status in this country." This week on the legal-affairs podcast Lawyer2Lawyer, my cohost J. Craig Williams and I explore the competence of legal representation provided to immigrants. Joining us as guests to discuss this issue are three experts in immigration law:
- Lisa D. Ramirez, an immigration lawyer in Santa Ana, Calif.
- Nora Privitera, special projects attorney for The Immigrant Legal Resource Center in San Francisco.
- Eleanor Newhoff, immigration lawyer in Cambridge, Mass., and part-time attorney for Greater Boston Legal Services.
