N-400 Naturalization Question

[roby12]

Is that a good idea to have to your lawyer with you at the Naturalization interview? What are the benefits? I mean the pros and cons.

[N400questions]

Many lawyers don't even want to attend the interviews. They can make more money spending that time billing other clients for phone calls and paperwork.
If you have to travel a long distance for the interview, the cost for their time can be ridiculously excessive.
The lawyer is not allowed to speak up on your behalf anyway. All the answers need to come from YOU not from the lawyer.
The only benefit I can see from having a lawyer is to make sure that the Adjudicator is not breaking the rules and is not treating you with disrespect or being obnoxious.
I suppose it may help you psychologically to feel like you have an advocate... only you can assess what that's worth to you.
Most interviews take only 15 or 30 minutes from what I've read. If you have prepared all your paperwork and got your act together, I can't think why a lawyer would be useful.
You need to make your own choice but (for what it's worth) I won't be using a lawyer.
Maybe someone else has a different opinion and can offer reasons why they think a lawyer is useful in the interview.

Deciding Whether to Bring an Attorney

You can have a lawyer accompany you to your interview, even if you only just hired the lawyer. It doesn't matter that you've never told USCIS that you'll be bringing an extra guest. On the day of the interview, the lawyer should simply hand the USCIS officer a form called a G-28 to show that he or she now represents you.

Then the question is, do you want a lawyer with you? If it's just because you're not sure you're ready for your interview, you might do just as well studying up on your English language and American civics. The lawyer can't stop USCIS from asking any of these questions, and he or she can't answer them for you. In fact, you'll find that the lawyer has to sit quietly through much of the interview.

It's a different matter if there's a legal issue in your case that you don't know how to deal with—such as if you've spent more than a year outside the United States, have had a run-in with the police, were quickly divorced from the spouse that got you your green card, or have a disability that prevents you from being able to learn English. Then a lawyer can help explain the matter to the USCIS officer, and protect your rights.
