When you guys went on your own without a lawyer did you have someone help you organize your additional information, is there a guide or something that I could follow how to organize or how to separate the information ?????? I am trying to get the money together for a lawyer but it is expensive and I am alone. |

hi nellie
i had no help with my papers,i did it all my self.you could pay someone just to help you to organize your papers without hiring them,but can do it by yourself.you just have to number each page,put them in order of relevance,lyour first page would be a statement of service that you have served on the border services a copies of all the documents you will use.next your letter detailing your case,the relationship,when you met,what happened during the relationship,when you met in person,got married,how many times you've been to see him or vice versa etc. let me know if you have any other questions,good luck.

Hello Leon, I forgot if I asked you this before. Can you please let me know if you had a lawyer or someone assisting you with appeal. How did you win the full hearing? Did this lawyer cost too much or did you go by yourself. I have a dilema- I spend thousand of dollars before for lawyers and they just confused our story and made things complex. So, now I don't know if I should go to the Full Hearing by myself or I should get someone. Please let me know your thoughts.
I also wanted to ask if anyone heard of "Roy Kellogg" and if anyone on this site thinks that he is good to hire for Appeal and Full Hearing? He is located in Toronto.
Thank you all for your feedback.

Dear,
We did not hire any lawyer. we both (Myself and wife) completed everything without any lawyer or consultant. Beleive me you can do it by urself if you are true in your claims. Most people do not beleive in lawyers plus lawyers charge lot of money for nothing. So i will suggest you if (Sponsor) is fluent in english then no need to hire any lawyer. Actually Sponsor have to prove that visa officer decision was wrong and should be set aside. In appeal hearing onus/burden is on Sponsor/Appealant that he/she must prove that their relationship is true and not entered primarily to get admission in Canada.
If you (sponsor/Appealant) fluent in english then do not hire any lawyer. Just go alone with (sponsored/applicant) and you will win. You just need to prepare appeal record file with proper numbering on each page. you have to make 2 files of appeal record 1 for IAD and 2 for Immigration Minister counsel. Prepare files like a book........On first page there should be INDEX... which shows every Chapter Page number so IAD Panel Member and Immigration Minister's counsel can find your record easily. Both files should be numbered same way.
Good Luck Edited by LEON - 08 Aug 2010 at 4:51am |

Lilylove. That's funny that you ask this question about Roy Kellogg, because I was going to do exactly the same thing! (ask this question in the forum) I found him on the internet the other day, and I emailed him about what he would charge to represent me in an appeal, and he responded very quickly. He seems like he would be good in some ways, as he used to work for the Minister's Counsel but....I don't know. Just google him and you can judge for yourself. Anyways, I'm in the same boat as you, in that I can't decide whether I should just go it alone, or hire a consultant or lawyer. After hearing about your bad experience with lawyers, and the fact that I would have to max out my credit card to pay for one, plus, hearing that Leon and plenty of others, won their appeal without a lawyer or consultant, I'm thinking that I might be better off without a lawyer. Like Leon and everyone has said many times before too, that they can all help us every step of the way, and we must remember too, that we know our story better than any lawyer does. Afterall, the decision is in God's hands so maybe having representation, isn't going to change the outcome anyway.

Hi Everyone!! :)
Just wondering if anyone has received a date for full hearing or IAD yet. I have been waiting for a date for the full hearing since May 2010 because the Ministers Council didn't feel comfortable on making the decision to let my appeal go forward and decided that a judge would be better for that decision. :( Anyone have any news on this during the summer at all?? |

Hello Leon, thank you for your advice. I was going to go alone to the Full Hearing but got a little intimidated because I dont know if I can handle this on my own. I am also very hesitant about these lawyers/consultants since they all after our $$$$$.
Thank you and you give me courase to go into the court by myself since you had done it and won I will also go at it alone.
Thank you again,
LoveLily
