Every day, staff and volunteers working in immigration legal services programs face urgent client needs and complex questions about immigration forms and processes. In the rush to help, staff and volunteers must ensure they do not blur boundaries and cross the line into the Unauthorized Practice of Immigration Law (UPIL). These situations often arise due to uncertainty about what UPIL is and why it matters.
This webinar will help individuals understand the definition of UPIL, analyze scenarios to determine if UPIL is present, acknowledge the consequences of UPIL, and identify and implement organizational procedures that prevent the occurrence of UPIL.
