Pro-Illegal Immigrant Activist Preys on Immigrant Community

Saturday, October 22, 2011 19:59

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

On May 6, just hours before his asylum hearing,
Mario de la Rosa, a Mexican immigrant living in Waukegan, waited in the
parking lot of a CVS pharmacy for the person representing him in his
case, Margaret Carrasco, to arrive. She never did.

Eventually, Mr. De la Rosa said, he drove to Ms. Carrasco’s home, where
she handed him a messy stack of forms, all filled out in English and
unintelligible to Mr. De la Rosa, who speaks only Spanish. Ms. Carrasco
apologized for being too ill to appear in court, he recalled. He
believed her. He had no reason not to.

He said he felt lucky to work with Ms. Carrasco, a bilingual immigrant
activist in Waukegan and, he thought, a lawyer. She even allowed clients
to pay her $500 fee in installments.

But sick or not, Ms. Carrasco, 51, may have had a more pressing reason
to avoid representing Mr. De la Rosa in court: she does not have the
proper legal accreditation to do so. On Oct. 14, Attorney General Lisa
Madigan filed suit against Ms. Carrasco, accusing her of misrepresenting
herself as an immigration lawyer and charging her clients
“unconscionable fees” for services she did not even render.

Subjects – Illegal Immigration, misrepresentation, fraud, lawyer, memo amnesty, deportation, ICE.
