I don't know much about this blog or author, but the post offers a very critical look at the quality of lawyering in the immigration law field and it has a link to an interesting study, available below, launched by a judge on the Second Circuit.

John,
Thanks for linking to this. I was particularly struck by the fact that New York immigration court judges rated nearly half of all legal representatives appearing before them as "less than adequate." Like the author of the blog post, I suspect that few of the deficient performers are actually being referred to the disciplinary authorities.
