    This is the immigration consulting arm of my law firm, Heller Immigration Law Group, LLP; often companies, and sometimes individuals, have their own 'outside law firm', immigration counsel, or have an in-house immigration practice, but would like to hire me independently of HILG to consult, review, advise, and often confidentially oversee the legal work being done. My charges range from a minimum fee of $1500 - up. I can be reached for this service by calling the office at: 650 424-1900, or email: heller@hilglaw.com
