No Lawyer, No Chance | Roanoke News
Description
In immigration court, thousands face life-altering decisions without legal representation—often with deportation looming. Unlike criminal cases, you don’t get a lawyer automatically, forcing people to either pay thousands or wait on nonprofit help, which is scarce and overwhelmed. Studies show having counsel can dramatically boost your odds of winning asylum or staying; without it, many feel lost and vulnerable. Volunteer lawyers are stepping in to offer guidance, explain paperwork, and connect clients with resources—critical lifelines in an increasingly complex and high-stakes system.
