How Our Fee Guarantee Protects Immigration Clients

Immigration to the United States is often described as one of the most complex legal processes in the world. Between ever-changing policies, Requests for Evidence (RFEs), Notices of Intent to Deny (NOIDs), and denials that require resubmission, applicants face a system that can feel unpredictable and overwhelming.
At the Law Office of Andrew R. Sones, we believe that clients should never feel financially exposed to the uncertainties of immigration policy. That’s why we created our Fee Guarantee Program, designed to provide protection, predictability, and peace of mind.

Understanding the Risks in Immigration Filings
The U.S. immigration system is not constantly rewritten by new laws. Instead, most of today’s challenges come from shifting interpretations of existing statutes and regulations. USCIS officers may demand more evidence, apply heightened standards, or issue denials based on policy changes—not because the underlying law has changed, but because its application has.
This creates real financial risk for applicants. A denial or RFE may require significant additional attorney work, traditionally billed at additional cost. For many families and businesses, that extra cost is an unwelcome shock.

How Our Fee Guarantee Protects You
Our Fee Guarantee Program was designed to take that financial risk off the client’s shoulders. If your case is accepted into the program and specifically noted in your Legal Services Agreement (LSA), you receive the following protections:
No legal fees for responding to an RFE or NOID.
No legal fees for preparing and filing a resubmission in the event of denial.
Clear confirmation in your LSA so you know in advance whether your case qualifies.
This means that if USCIS creates additional hurdles, we handle the extra legal work at no extra cost to you.

Benefits of the Fee Guarantee
Financial SecurityYou won’t face unplanned attorney fees if USCIS issues an RFE, NOID, or denial requiring a resubmission.
Peace of MindYou can focus on your immigration journey without worrying about hidden legal costs.
Transparency and TrustBy putting this guarantee in writing in your LSA, you know exactly where you stand from day one.

What the Guarantee Is Not
We want to be absolutely clear: no law firm can guarantee an approval. USCIS makes independent decisions, and no attorney controls the outcome.
Our guarantee does not promise that your case will be approved. Instead, it ensures that you will not pay additional legal fees if your case encounters procedural obstacles.

Examples of How the Guarantee Works
Employment-Based Green Cards (EB-2, EB-3, I-140 with PERM): If USCIS issues an RFE challenging qualifications or labor certification details, we handle the response under the guarantee.
Family Petitions (I-130 and I-485 Adjustment of Status): If USCIS questions the marriage evidence or issues a NOID, our additional legal work is covered.
Extraordinary Ability or Performer Visas (O-1, P-1): If USCIS denies the case based on its interpretation of “extraordinary ability,” we cover the legal fees for resubmission.
In all cases, filing fees and government costs remain the client’s responsibility, but our attorney fees for follow-up work are waived under the guarantee.

Why This Matters for Clients
Immigration cases are expensive, not only in terms of filing fees but also in time and emotional investment. A denial or lengthy RFE can feel like starting over. By offering a Fee Guarantee, our firm gives clients a safety net that reduces the financial impact of unexpected government actions.
For families, it means less stress and greater confidence. For businesses sponsoring employees, it means predictable budgeting and reduced risk.

Why We Offer This Guarantee
We built this program to reflect our values:
Commitment: We stand by our work beyond the initial filing.
Integrity: We are honest about what we can and cannot guarantee.
Client-Centered Service: We recognize that legal fees can create barriers, and we aim to lower them when the government moves the goalposts.
