Immigration lawyers face a minefield of laws, regulations, policies, case developments, and agency interpretations that can vary in application almost daily. Under the current administration, the built-in application of discretion in our U.S. immigration laws and policies is subject to ongoing contortions that have changed decades of enforcement objectives. The American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA) offers numerous interest group, committee, and chapter listservs that are in constant overdrive with lawyers trying to determine the appropriate remedy or interpretation of caselaw. These ethical efforts are made in assessing legal remedies and risks related to the case facts – not in the facilitation of fraud. Our professional ethics require that we zealously represent our clients. Now, the Trump Administration is threatening us and our clients with armed USCIS agents. Why is that a problem?
