Ineffective assistance of counsel的問題

8老師您好。表姐一家昨天去廣州麵簽，夫妻倆都簽出來了，但是女兒卻因超齡被拒。現在想file motion.超齡的主要原因是原來的律師隻收錢不幹活，又碰上疫情，所以被耽誤了。

剛剛網上research了一下，發現今年8月USCIS有新的policy alert, 其中ineffective assistance of counsel被加了進來。

https://www.uscis.gov/policy-manual/volume-7-part-a-chapter-7#S-G-3

摘錄如下

Extraordinary Circumstances Due to Ineffective Assistance of Counsel

An applicant may only establish extraordinary circumstances due to ineffective assistance of counsel (the applicant’s legal representative or attorney) if the applicant completes the following:

• The applicant must submit an affidavit explaining in detail the agreement that was entered into with counsel regarding the actions to be taken and what information, if any, counsel provided to the applicant regarding such actions;

• The applicant must demonstrate that the applicant has made a good faith effort to inform counsel whose integrity or competence is being questioned of the allegations brought against counsel and that counsel has been given an opportunity to respond; and

• The applicant must indicate whether a complaint has been filed with the appropriate disciplinary authorities about any violations of counsel’s legal or ethical responsibilities, or explain why a complaint has not been filed

 

第一點是指和律師簽過的合同嗎？ what information, if any, counsel provided to the applicant regarding such actions這個是什麽意思呢？

第二點是用什麽呢？allergations是指跟律師之間的email? 其實還有很多微信上的conversation. 

第三點他們沒有file any complaint, 根本不懂，也沒時間再去弄。

 

希望有經驗的人給點意見。先謝過了！
