Attorney Consultations

If you need assistance with any of the legal services discussed on our website, call (510) 835-1115 or use the Lawyer Contact Form linked on every page of this website to request that Scott Mossman contact you.

The purpose of the initial call is to determine if a paid consultation would be appropriate. If so, Scott will offer a consultation. At the consultation, Scott will thoroughly review the personal, immigration, and criminal history of the person who needs help. Scott will use that information to advise on possible immigration benefits or issues and to answer questions. If you are eligible for a benefit, the consultation is also the time to discuss attorney representation.

Scott conducts all initial consultations by Zoom videoconferencing, except he meets in person or by phone with potential clients who are detained in criminal or immigration custody.

Please be aware that Scott will not advise you on immigration procedures or on how to apply for a benefit on your own without an attorney. It is not feasible to provide all of the information needed for self-representation at a consultation and providing only part of the information can lead to problems. Further, Scott has found that persons who try to use information obtained during a consultation to represent themselves often misunderstand or misapply it. Or the procedures change.

Note: The Law Office of Scott A. Mossman does not accept cases where none of the potential clients live in Northern California. Additionally, we are a U.S. immigration firm; that means we do not represent people seeking to immigrate to other countries.
