How we score

Every number on this page is computed from public Google data on the date shown, not from opinion or payment. Rating is the firm’s live Google star average. Review volume shows how many clients have rated them, ranked against other Los Angeles immigration consultants. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 5.0 from over 800 reviews carries more weight than one from a smaller sample. Recency reflects how recently clients are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.

What does hiring an immigration consultant cost in Los Angeles? (2026)

Immigration case fees vary enormously by case type, complexity and whether litigation like a mandamus filing is involved. This is a legal matter with real stakes for your status in the US, so get a written fee agreement and scope of work directly from any firm before paying, and don’t rely on general price guides for a decision this important.

Serving Los Angeles

These firms are based around downtown Los Angeles and Koreatown, with several serving clients across Southern California and beyond. Searching for an immigration consultant near me? Every listing above shows a live phone number so you can schedule a consultation directly.

What to ask before you hire an immigration consultant

Is the firm a licensed attorney or law firm, or a non-attorney immigration consultant?
What’s the total fee, and is it flat-rate or hourly, in writing before you pay anything?
What’s their specific experience with your case type (family-based, employment, mandamus, appeals)?
How will they communicate case updates, and how often?
What happens if the case is denied or delayed beyond the expected timeline?

Frequently asked questions

How did you choose these immigration consultants?

We started from every immigration consultant and firm in Los Angeles with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency and recency. See How we score above.

Are these rankings paid?

No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.

How often is this updated?

The data carries a verified date (August 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.

Which firm should I call if my case has been stuck for months?

Goldstein Immigration Lawyers specialises specifically in cases stalled in administrative processing, using federal mandamus filings to compel action.

Are any of these attorneys formally certified specialists?

Yes. David M. Haghighi is a State Bar of California Certified Specialist in Immigration and Nationality Law, a credential held by a relatively small number of attorneys in the state.

The bottom line

JCS Immigration & Visa Law Office is the safe default given its review depth and broad case coverage, while Goldstein Immigration Lawyers is the specialist to call if your case has genuinely stalled. This is a legal matter with real consequences, so get everything in writing and verify current standing before paying any fees.
