Describe your situation or enter a form number. We prepare USCIS petitions (I-485 adjustment of status, I-130 family, I-765 work permit, I-589 asylum, N-400 naturalization, I-131 travel document, I-90 green card replacement), EOIR immigration court documents, California family law forms (FL-100 dissolution, FL-300 request for order), small claims (SC-100), unlawful detainer, civil harassment and domestic violence restraining orders, probate, and fee waivers — for clients across California and worldwide.
We handle the paperwork — accurately, on time, and without surprises.
Imverica was built on a simple idea: people navigating the legal system deserve accurate, professional document preparation — without paying attorney fees for work that doesn't require an attorney. Too many people make costly mistakes on USCIS forms, court filings, and California government documents simply because they didn't have access to the right help at the right price.
Our founder spent over 10 years preparing immigration petitions, EOIR court documents, and California civil forms alongside licensed California attorneys — building the kind of hands-on expertise that comes only from real casework. Imverica was created to bring that expertise directly to clients, without the overhead of a law firm.
We serve clients across California and remotely worldwide — by phone, email, and Telegram. We prepare documents accurately, on time, and at flat fees that are transparent from day one. For matters that require an attorney, we maintain referral relationships with licensed counsel.
We are currently expanding our certified translation department. Contact us to discuss your translation needs — we will do our best to assist.

Plain-English answers about California Legal Document Assistant and Immigration Consultant services, with citations to the underlying California statutes and federal regulations.
A Legal Document Assistant is a non-attorney who is registered, bonded, and authorized under California law to prepare legal documents for self-represented parties at the client's direction. An LDA does not give legal advice, does not select legal forms or strategies for the client, and does not represent the client in court. The LDA's role is strictly clerical: taking the information the client provides and preparing the document the client has chosen to file.
To operate as an LDA in California, the person must register with the county clerk in each county where they provide services, post a $25,000 bond, and meet education or experience requirements under §6402.1.
Authority: California Business & Professions Code §§6400-6415 (Legal Document Assistant Act). See specifically §6400(d) (definition), §6402 (registration), §6405 (bond), §6411 (prohibited acts).An Immigration Consultant is a non-attorney who provides non-legal assistance to clients on immigration matters under California's Immigration Consultant Act. Permitted services include translation, completing forms with information supplied by the client, and gathering supporting documentation. An Immigration Consultant cannot give legal advice, select the form or category for the client, or represent the client before USCIS or in immigration court.
To operate in California, the consultant must be bonded ($100,000) and registered with the Secretary of State. Federal immigration representation requires either a licensed attorney or a representative accredited by the Department of Justice EOIR (recognized organization).
Authority: California Business & Professions Code Chapter 19.5, §§22440-22448 (Immigration Consultant Act); 8 CFR §1292.1 (federal rules on who may represent before USCIS / EOIR).No. Only the persons listed in 8 CFR §1292.1 may represent a party before USCIS, EOIR, or related federal immigration bodies: licensed U.S. attorneys, BIA-accredited representatives from recognized organizations, law students under supervision, and certain reputable individuals on a one-time basis. A California LDA or Immigration Consultant is not on that list.
What we can do: prepare the forms accurately at your direction, gather and organize supporting documents, translate, and provide a complete filing package. You remain the petitioner / applicant. For matters that require representation, we maintain referral relationships with licensed counsel.
Authority: 8 CFR §1292.1 (who may represent); 8 USC §1324c (penalties for fraudulent representations in immigration matters).Form I-485 is the application a noncitizen physically present in the United States files with USCIS to adjust status to lawful permanent resident (green card). Eligibility categories include family-based (spouse, parent, or child of a U.S. citizen / LPR), employment-based, asylum-based (one year after grant of asylum), diversity visa, VAWA, special immigrant, and several humanitarian categories.
The package typically includes the I-485 itself, I-693 (medical examination), supporting evidence of the underlying eligibility basis, biographic and address history, employment history, and the filing fee or fee-waiver request (I-912). Concurrent or follow-on filings often include I-765 (work permit) and I-131 (advance parole).
Authority: Immigration and Nationality Act §245(a) (adjustment of status); 8 CFR §§245.1-245.2 (procedure); USCIS Policy Manual Volume 7 (Adjustment of Status).Form I-589 is filed by a person in the United States who seeks asylum, withholding of removal, or protection under the Convention Against Torture. The applicant must file within one year of last arrival in the United States, unless changed circumstances or extraordinary circumstances justify the delay.
The 12-page form covers identity, family, background, prior immigration history, and a written declaration explaining why the applicant fears persecution on account of race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. Supporting evidence — country conditions, witness statements, identity documents — is typically submitted with the form.
Authority: Immigration and Nationality Act §208 (asylum); 8 CFR §208.4 (one-year filing deadline); 8 CFR §208.13 (eligibility); INA §241(b)(3) (withholding of removal); 8 CFR §208.16 (Convention Against Torture).Unlawful detainer is California's expedited statutory procedure for a landlord to recover possession of residential or commercial real property from a tenant who has failed to pay rent, failed to perform other lease covenants, refused to vacate after proper notice of tenancy termination, or who is unlawfully holding over after expiration of the lease term.
The process begins with a proper written notice (typically 3-day notice to pay rent or quit under CCP §1161(2); 30/60-day termination of tenancy under Civ. Code §1946 / §1946.1; or 3-day notice to perform covenants or quit). If the tenant does not comply, the landlord files an UD-100 complaint. The tenant has 5 calendar days to respond (CCP §1167). The case is set on an expedited trial calendar.
Authority: California Code of Civil Procedure §1161 (grounds), §1162 (notice service), §1166 (complaint), §1167 (response time), §1170 (trial); Civil Code §1946-1946.2 (tenancy termination notices).As of January 1, 2024, a natural person may bring a claim up to $12,500 in California small claims court. A corporation, partnership, or other legal entity is limited to $6,250. A natural person may bring no more than two claims above $2,500 in the same calendar year statewide.
The plaintiff files SC-100 (Plaintiff's Claim and ORDER). The defendant may answer in person at the hearing or file SC-120 (Defendant's Claim) if asserting a counterclaim. Attorneys are generally not permitted to represent parties at the initial small claims hearing (CCP §116.530).
Authority: Code of Civil Procedure §116.221 (jurisdictional limits, as amended 2024); §116.231 (limit on $2,500+ claims per year); §116.530 (no attorney representation at hearing); §§116.110-116.950 (Small Claims Act generally).An attorney is a member of the State Bar of California, licensed to give legal advice, select strategies, and represent clients in court. A Legal Document Assistant is a registered, bonded non-attorney who can prepare documents that the self-represented client has decided to file.
The line is clear in §6411: an LDA may not provide legal advice, may not recommend a specific course of action, and may not select documents on the client's behalf. An LDA may type or assemble forms the client has chosen, file documents at the courthouse for the client, translate, and provide self-help publications. Pricing is typically flat-fee per package, vs. hourly billing common in attorney practice.
Authority: California Business & Professions Code §6400(d) (LDA scope), §6411 (prohibited acts including unauthorized practice of law); Bus. & Prof. Code §6125 (no person shall practice law in California without an active license).Our California LDA registration and California Immigration Consultant registration apply to services provided from California. Federal USCIS document preparation is location-independent — we work with clients across the United States and worldwide by phone, email, Telegram, and secure document upload. For California-court matters (small claims, family law, unlawful detainer, restraining orders), service is most effective for matters venued in California superior courts.
One fixed price per document package, disclosed and agreed to in writing before any work begins. No hourly billing, no surprise add-ons. If the scope of work changes (e.g., USCIS issues a Request for Evidence and you ask us to prepare the response), we provide a written addendum with the additional flat fee before doing the work.
California LDAs must provide a written contract under §6410 stating the services to be performed and the fee. The contract must include the LDA's registration number and the statutorily required disclosures.
Authority: California Business & Professions Code §6410 (written contract required); §6408 (required disclosures and signage).Document preparation and intake interviews are available in English, Russian, Ukrainian, and Spanish. Translations of supporting documents for USCIS filings must be accompanied by the translator's certification under 8 CFR §103.2(b)(3) — we provide certified translations as part of document-preparation packages.
Authority: 8 CFR §103.2(b)(3) (certified translation requirement for foreign-language documents submitted to USCIS).If during intake we determine the matter genuinely requires legal advice — for example, a removal proceeding with complex relief eligibility, a contested family-law matter, a federal criminal exposure, or strategic decisions about which form or category to file — we say so up front and refer you to a licensed California attorney from our referral network. We are not a referral service for compensation; we simply will not prepare documents we cannot lawfully prepare under §6411.
Authority: California Business & Professions Code §6411 (LDA prohibited from giving legal advice or selecting forms); §6125 (unauthorized practice of law prohibited).
