Why Having Interim Immigration Counsel Support Matters in a Fast-Paced Policy Environment

It’s all over the news: immigration law has reached a point that hasn’t been seen in perhaps a century. Clients, attorneys, and even court personnel are continually being caught off guard by sudden shifts in programs, policies, interpretations of the law, and procedural timelines.

It’s far from rare to have a client hearing suddenly pushed up — or be rescheduled out of nowhere for a case you thought was on a smooth trajectory.

It’s an extremely difficult environment to keep up with, no matter the size of your law firm, particularly in border-adjacent areas like Texas and New Mexico. In this fast-paced climate, you may unexpectedly need someone to:

• Make appearances before USCIS and EOIR
• Cover critical case obligations while an attorney is traveling or otherwise unavailable

Having temporary immigration legal support can mean the difference in client case outcomes. It can also mean the difference for your firm’s ability to maintain a reputation for outstanding service delivery.

When you aren’t sure how to cover your caseload or tackle specific appointments, give John W. Lawit, LLC a call.

Short‑Term Immigration Case Coverage for Law Firms FAQ

The following questions often arise when discussing limited relationships for court appearances and other forms of case coverage for immigration law.

What is a fractional legal counsel?

The term “fractional legal counsel” is another way of saying “part-time legal counsel.” These attorneys supplement your capacity as a law firm so that you can continue to handle your cadence of cases as the volume fluctuates — or as your availability changes because of a vacation or another obligation.

Fractional general counsel immigration services can be used to augment your team and help it adjust to unexpected spikes in demand. They can also provide you with coverage in situations where your own ability to handle case appearances unexpectedly diminishes.

A fractional counsel can also serve as a legal support position to a company or organization looking for temporary or occasional legal advice and assistance.

How much notice does John W. Lawit, LLC require to provide vacation coverage for an immigration lawyer in Texas or New Mexico?

Generally, the more notice, the better. Our availability and volume of obligations fluctuate.

We would prefer to organize our engagements well in advance so that we can be prepared and clients can be well taken care of.

However, we also understand that unexpected things come up! Someone else’s ability to cover may fall through, or travel dates may suddenly change. We promise to do everything we can to accommodate you when this happens.

Please do not hesitate to contact us with your request, and we will let you know if we have staff available to provide the needed interim immigration attorney support.
