The Importance of “Too Good to be True”

Whether the problem you’re trying to solve is immigration, copyright, or business related is irrelevant when it comes to the importance of Too Good to be True.

It can apply to the paralegal who offers simple solutions to your immigration non-status, promising to handle everything from beginning to end–and for an affordable price!

It can apply to the intellectual property processor who guarantees your intellectual property is all safe with just a single filing–saving you thousands in filing fees!

It can apply to that business opportunity where a small investment on your part guarantees a monetary investment from them–and business! You’ll receive thousands of leads and buy-ins and will earn a fortune in just a few months–no weeks!

If it sounds too good to be true, then it probably is exactly that.

Our law group is one of the few long-lasting law offices in San Gabriel Valley, and a good percentage of our clients have fallen into the trap of “if it sounds good, I’ll take it!” and failed to heed the good ol’ rule of too good to be true.  As a result, clients are often referred to us after sinking tens of thousands of dollars into a failed project that another attorney guaranteed, an immigration application they thought would result in a green card, or a business they thought would fund their retirement.  Instead, they’ve not only lost their initial investment, but they’ve possibly hurt their chances for obtaining the benefit they originally sought. This is especially true for immigration.

As such, we urge you to not believe everything everything they’re selling you and listen to that gut feeling that tells you, this must be too good to be true!
