Disclaimer and attorney advertising
This website is advertising. It is written to be genuinely useful, but it is general information about removal law, not advice about your case, and reading it does not make us your lawyers.
Attorney advertising
This website is attorney advertising under New York Rule of Professional Conduct 7.1 and Florida Bar Rule 4-7.13. Usher Law Group, P.C. publishes it to describe what we do and to explain how removal law works. The firm advertises into both the New York and Florida markets, so both sets of rules apply to every page here.
The attorney responsible for the content of this site is Mikhail Usher, Esq., managing attorney, Usher Law Group, P.C., 1600 Sheepshead Bay Rd, Suite 203, Brooklyn, NY 11235, (718) 484-7510, info@usherlegal.com.
This is not legal advice
Every page on this site describes the law in general terms. Removal cases turn on specific facts: how you entered, what the Notice to Appear says, what you admitted at your first hearing, what your criminal record actually contains, who your family members are and what status they hold, and which judge has your case. General information cannot account for any of that.
Do not make a decision about a filing, a deadline, a hearing, a plea, or a signature based on something you read here. Talk to a lawyer about your own facts. If you cannot afford one, the immigration court publishes a list of free and low-cost legal service providers, and we will point you to it if we cannot take your case.
No attorney-client relationship until a signed retainer
Reading this site does not make you our client. Neither does sending us a form, an email, or a text message, and neither does a free consultation. An attorney-client relationship with Usher Law Group, P.C. begins only when we and you sign a written retainer agreement that says what we are handling and what it costs.
This matters for a practical reason. Until that agreement exists, we are not tracking your deadlines. If you have a hearing date, an appeal deadline, or a motion deadline coming up, it remains yours to protect until a signed retainer says otherwise.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome
Anything this site says about past matters describes what happened in those matters and nothing more. Removal outcomes vary enormously by court, by judge, by the charge, by the quality of the record, and by law that has changed repeatedly since 2025. Nothing here is a prediction or a promise about your case, and no lawyer can honestly give you one.
The law changes, and these pages carry a date
Removal law moved a great deal in 2025 and 2026. Rules, fees, filing deadlines, and controlling case law have all shifted, and at least one published deadline was vacated by a court before it took effect and still appears in the online regulations. A page that was accurate last quarter can be wrong now.
Every page that carries a fee, a deadline, a processing time, or a statistic shows a "Current as of" date under its heading. Read that date. If it is old, or if your deadline is close, confirm the point with a lawyer or against the government's own source before you rely on it. We re-check these pages on a schedule and after any rule change, but no website is a substitute for checking your own case.
Government filing fees are not legal fees
When this site names a dollar amount, it says who receives it. Filing fees go to the Department of Justice or to USCIS. We never receive them, we cannot waive them, and we cannot refund them. Where we have not verified the current amount of a government fee, we do not print a figure at all; we say that a fee applies and link the official schedule. Our legal fees are separate, are quoted to you individually, and are confirmed in writing before we start work. Any fee figure published here describes a typical matter; a complicated case can cost more, and we tell you that before you sign, not after.
About the photographs on this site
The photographs on this site are digitally created. They are illustrative. They do not depict actual clients, actual matters, or actual events, and no image here should be read as a representation about a real case.
The attorneys shown in them are our attorneys, rendered from their own likenesses. Every other person in an image is not a client and is not a real person. Where an image shows an attorney with someone, that meeting did not happen. We use these images because we will not put a photograph of an actual client on a public website, and we will not put a stranger from a stock library on the site and let you assume it is us.
The three attorney portraits on our firm page are photographs of those attorneys. They are the only images on this site that are not digitally created.
Who is admitted where
Here are the state bar admissions, stated accurately:
- Mikhail Usher, Esq., managing attorney, is admitted in New York, New Jersey and Florida.
- Alexander Susi, Esq., is admitted in New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
- Mitchell Bromberg, Esq., is admitted in New Jersey and New York.
Immigration practice is federal. The immigration courts, the Board of Immigration Appeals and USCIS are federal tribunals and agencies, and an attorney admitted in any state may appear before them. That is why we represent people in removal proceedings throughout the United States and its territories, wherever the immigration court sits, without being admitted in that state. Petitions for review in the federal courts of appeals are filed by an attorney admitted to that court, or with local counsel.
State-law matters are different. For anything governed by state law, including criminal matters, we act only where the attorney handling it is admitted. If your question is not an immigration question, ask us and we will tell you plainly whether we can take it.
Translated pages
The language selector on this site runs machine translation. It is a convenience so that you can get the gist of a page in a language you read more comfortably. It is not attorney-reviewed, it is not a legal translation, and machine translation regularly gets legal terms wrong in ways that change the meaning.
The English version of every page controls. If a translated page and the English page say different things, the English page is the one we stand behind. When it matters, ask us and we will explain it to you in English, Russian, Spanish or Uzbek in-house, or through a live interpreter in another language.
If you have a question about anything on this page, call (718) 484-7510 or email info@usherlegal.com. See also our privacy policy and our accessibility statement.
