Immigration attorneys represent non-citizens who want to live, work or visit the United States. These lawyers can also help undocumented immigrants found living in the U.S. without permission gain authorized immigration status. Immigration laws, which are very complex, govern who can enter the U.S., how long they can stay, what they can do while they are here, and how they can become American citizens. If you or a loved one has immigration issues, an immigration lawyer may be able to help.

A tireless advocate.

Patricia Ice has been my steadfast and diligent immigration attorney since 2003. Then, a broke international undergraduate, Ms. Ice provided indispensable guidance and counsel. In addition to her invaluable legal advice, she worked closely with me as I prepared my USCIS application for work autho...rization. Her pro bono assistance afforded me my first employment opportunity in the US. Attorney Ice insisted on meeting with me and my fiance before our marriage. She advised us on the legal, personal, and financial challenges ahead and thoroughly prepared us for the permanent resident application process. Mrs. Ice accompanied us to our green card interview and her presence was an immense comfort. She was instrumental in navigating thorny questions about our tax returns and finances. Fast forward to 2018: I finally received my permanent residency, an impossible feat without her tremendous expertise. My case was particularly fraught because of a misdemeanor on my record. My residency application was initially denied and we had to submit an I-601 application for waiver of inadmissibility. The ordeal surrounding the resolution of my misdemeanor and waiver application is almost indescribable. Suffice it to say, Attorney Ice was as compassionate and understanding as she was relentless in advocating for my freedom and future. If you are in need of a tireless and caring immigration attorney, I cannot recommend her enough. Best regards, og

Not sure what I would have done without her!

Prior to meeting Attorney Ice, I had briefly consulted with another lawyer who quoted me 4 times what she charged, didn't specialize in immigration law & frankly didn't seem to care about anything other than me signing the contract & bringing a substantial deposit. Attorney Patricia Ice was a godsend...! Such a breathe of fresh air. I was extremely worried about my case & she alleviated my concerns. She walked me through the entire process & helped set my expectations. She was very thorough & took the time to sit down with me for not only an initial consultation but also to file my application. Due to unforseen circumstances she couldn't be at my interview. However, she had walked me through the process, asked me the civic questions & continued to check on me even while I was in the immigration office. More importantly, I knew I could trust her as an attorney and a person. I was able to share parts of my life with her that I rarely do with others. Attorney Ice is very calm, cool, & collected. There is no doubt that she is well educated & specializes in getting fair results. She was flexible with my schedule- our last face to face meeting actually took place on a Saturday in her office. I think her fees are a steal considering the wealth of positive experience she brings with her. I have already recommended her services to friends in the area and would continue to do so.

Name Change Court Order

I came to Miss Ice, based on a recommendation from one of my trusted friends. We had the issue of name change for my wife. Miss Ice took our case, and filed all the needed papers and documents. She represented my wife in Rankin county court, it took her a couple of days to did it, then she emailed... us the court order. She is really professional, very friendly, and supportive for her clients I would absolutely come to her again for any legal advise or help, and recommend her to others. Thank you
