之前shelter给我一个legal aid的电话，但他们给我安排那个人不是真正的attorney,是paralegal.但因为我一直忙于离婚，还没开始办这个。
上周,immigrant law centre 给我一个volunteer 移民律师，她是 licensed attorney,不是助理之类的，她给我打了一次电话，感觉比较有经验。但有一点是她说，如果将来我离开这个州，从我离开那天起她就不能继续代理我了。
-You had better use this immigration lawyer for free, otherwise you need to hire another lawyer who may charge you $5000 or more. Also, abused-based green card application will be approved very fast.
我还没开始办转10绿这个事情，现在打算开始办了，但不知道该用哪个好，也不知道paralegal跟attorney的水平差多少还是没什么大的区别，这2个人都说我的受虐转10绿这个不基于离婚，我可以现在就提交申请，不必非等到离婚后，
-The two lawyers' comments are correct.
我现在比较犹豫不知道用哪个好，因为等我离婚后，提交10绿申请后，打完指纹就会离开这个州，因为我不想待在这里，怕我丈夫找我再伤害我，i have to stay away from him。 我想用那个attorney， 虽然她说我搬走后她就不能继续代理我，但我想最重要的部分还是提交申请时的所有paperwork和证据，提交完申请，剩下的基本就是等了，中间程序也没什么，也就是最后一个面试，也不一定非要有律师。 那个paralegal感觉比较细心，但我感觉他好像没那个attorney有经验。那个attorney说整个程序从提交申请到拿到大概需要10个月左右。
-The paralegal lawyer may help you for divorce issue and the immigration lawyer can help you to apply for the green card. So, talk to the immigraiton lawyer for the green card application issue and talk to the paralegal lawyer for the divorce issue.
You do not need to worry about your spouse will hurt you because the police will protect you. If you feel unsafe (e.g. he is around you), call 911 immediately. Anyway, everything will be fine and life will continue.
