How it works

Three steps, one working session.

1

Book online

Pick a time and pay the $450 flat fee. That's the entire cost — no retainers, no hourly billing, no upsell.

2

Upload your documents

Forms, notices, anything you have — even incomplete. You'll get an upload link the moment you book.

3

Meet me on Zoom

I review everything before we talk. You get 45 minutes of direct answers: red flags, corrections, and your next steps.

Who this is for

You're handling your own case. I make sure it's on solid ground.

Floridians managing their own immigration matters — green card applications, naturalization, removal proceedings, work visas — who want an experienced attorney to check their work before they file or appear. You stay pro se. I don't take over your case; I make sure you're running it on solid footing.

What this isn't

This is a one-time review and strategy session, not ongoing representation. I don't file forms, appear for you, or track your deadlines after the call. If your case needs a full-representation attorney, I'll tell you that directly and point you in the right direction.

Trusted work

Honest guidance, real experience.

Reviews reflect individual client experiences with Michael P. Kenny’s prior representation work. Every case is different. Past results and reviews do not guarantee a similar outcome; immigration benefits are discretionary.

Your attorney

Michael P. Kenny, Esq.

Michael P. Kenny, Esq., Florida immigration attorney

Immigration attorney since 1997. Member of the Florida Bar and the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). I've spent nearly three decades helping people navigate the U.S. immigration system — including federal court litigation when the government drags its feet.

The consultation model is simple: you get my full attention on your case for 45 minutes, you leave with a straight answer and a plan, and your case stays yours.

Common questions

Frequently asked questions

I've been handling my case myself — is this for me?

Yes — that's exactly who this is built for. Most people I talk to have already been navigating USCIS forms, deadlines, or a removal case on their own. I review what you've filed or received, point out anything that needs attention, and lay out what comes next.

What do I get for the $450?

Before we meet, I personally review the documents you upload. Then we spend 45 minutes on Zoom going through your case: what's working, what the red flags are, and the specific next steps I'd take in your position. You leave with a clear plan — not a sales pitch.

Why isn't the consultation free?

Free consultations are usually a screening call to sell you full representation. This is different: the consultation is the service. You're paying for an experienced attorney's focused review of your actual documents and a working session on your actual case — and you stay in control of it afterward.

I'm in immigration court (removal proceedings). Can you help?

Yes — I have removal defense and federal litigation experience, and I can review your notices, explain what's happening in plain English, and lay out your options. If you have a hearing date coming up, book as soon as possible; deadlines in these matters move quickly.

Can we really do this entirely over Zoom?

Yes. The practice is built around remote consultations, serving clients anywhere in Florida. All you need is a phone or computer with internet access. Consultations are conducted in English; interpreter arrangements are available on request.

What if my case needs more than a consultation?

I'll tell you plainly. If your matter needs a full-representation attorney, you'll hear that directly during our session, along with where I'd point you. No pressure, no bait-and-switch — the session's job is to give you the truth about your case.

Ready for a straight answer?

45 minutes. Flat $450. Your case stays yours.
