Will use your services if successlfull.I-751 was not filed on time, got the letter about deportation hearing after few months. The marriage is in good standing, we just could not afford the filing fee due to my wives health issues, payments and bills alltogether. Yet, the letter stated that I am entitled to hire a lawyer. How much does it usually cost, and how does the process go and if I am deported, how long is it going to take me to come back to see my immediates?

Hello,my name is Judith. Thank you for this opportunity to answer your questions.
You cannot retain a JA expert. It is a violation of our expert agreement to have direct contact with you.
Would you like me to answer your other questions and give you a website to a referral service for a lawyer locally?

Since my original question was not answered, here I go again:
\I-751 was not filed on time since I have never got a warning letter from USCIS - after few months, literally right 2 days ago, I have got a letter from them that I am illegal. Stopped working, gave up my job, I am just trying to keep myself with my family, which includes a toddler that is mine, and a stepson that is being taken care of.
I didn't answer your question because you asked to retain a JA lawyer. I explained that to you. Maybe I was not clear.
I asked you if you wanted a source of lawyers to represent you and if you wanted me to answer your question since you could not retain a JA lawyer.
Your wife has to file an I-130 petition for you again.
You will then have to ask the judge to allow you to file a new I-485 before the court to adjust status.
Now you have no status so you have to start the process all over again from the beginning with a new petition and then ask the judge to allow you to adjust before the court.
you need to have the new petition filed very quickly before you get your court date in the mail.

You were not entitled to a warning. Your card had an expiration date on it and your responsibility was to file the I-751. That is the law. USCIS is not required to remind you to stay in status.
