On many occasions, this author takes the opportunity to use the internet to provide general information about international legal issues. The following article is particularly relevant from the standpoint of United States Immigration, but it is also an important piece that should be read by anyone seeking legal guidance regarding American law from outside the USA.
That being said, another frequently discussed subject that this author concentrates on is the unauthorized practice of American law by "visa companies" and "visa agents" or those claiming to be American lawyers or attorneys. This piece is not simply intended to be a tirade against such practices, but is instead meant to provide information regarding the detrimental impact that these individuals can have upon the interests of those who hire them.
Under section 292.1 of the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), a licensed American attorney is statutorily entitled to represent clients in matters arising before the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) which oversees the operations of the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS) which has the statutory mandate to adjudicate US visa petitions. Many are unaware of the fact that those unaccredited organizations or individuals who assist individuals in choosing and preparing visa petitions for submission to USCIS are engaging in the unauthorized practice of law if they are not: licensed to practice law in at least one US jurisdiction while being eligible to practice law in all US jurisdictions or certified by the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA).
Licensure is not an insignificant matter, especially for those people who think that they are "represented" by those claiming to be "attorneys" or "lawyers" who are not, in fact, legally trained nor licensed to practice in the US. For instance, if a US Citizen speaks to an unlicensed person about sensitive legal matters that could impact an Immigration petition or application, then such communication would likely not be considered legally confidential under American law and also would likely not be protected under the US legal doctrine of attorney/client privilege. If an American is communicating in confidence to a licensed US attorney regarding an American legal matter, then such communication is "out of bounds" for US Courts and officers of the US government. Although, the same information transmissions, irrespective of the fact that they may have been communicated privately, made to one who is unlicensed could possibly be used as evidence in a US adjudicatory proceeding. Therefore, licensure is extremely important for those seeking benefits from the US government or for those who have dealings with the US authorities. This is especially true in US Immigration cases that involve a legal ground of excludability or an application for an I-601 waiver of inadmissibility as some information might negatively impact clients' interests and if transmitted in confidence to a licensed American attorney would be subject to US rules of attorney/client privilege. However, if the same information was transmitted to an unlicensed individual (whether claiming to be a US attorney or not) such information could be transmitted to the government, as no attorney/client privilege would attach. This information might then be used in an adverse manner against the subject at a later time.
For all of the aforementioned reasons, when a US Citizen is abroad it is always wise to check the credentials of any individual claiming to be a legal professional from the United States. A person claiming to be a US lawyer can provide adequate credentials if he or she can provide evidence of their license to practice law before at least one State Supreme Court in America, US Federal Court, or a license to practice law in one of the outlying incorporated US jurisdictions (Guam, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, etc). Anyone who refuses to provide any such credentials and yet still asserts that they are an American attorney or "lawyer" should be avoided until proof of credentials can be provided.

Yona, Guam $58.94 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Yona is a village on the east coast of Guam. The village was historically a farming community and today is mostly residential. During World War II, the Japanese forced the indigenous Chamorros to march from camps in northern Guam to prison camps in the Maneng g]on area in the Yona municipality shortly before the Americans liberated the island. Japanese tanks in the area near the Segua river serve as reminders of the war. Today, the Leo Palace Resort, with one of the islands most popular golf courses, is located in the Manengon Hills. The Leo Palace Resort is also used for association football. The municipality of Yona has an area of 20mi (52 km ) and is located on the eastern side of Guam between Pago River and Togcha River. The village center is located above the cliffs between Pago Bay and Ylig Bay. Residential areas of Baza Gardens and Windward Hills are located to the south.

Rugby Union in Guam $70.1 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Rugby union in Guam is a minor but growing sport. They are currently ranked 82nd by the IRB. Although Guam is often considered part of Oceania, it tends to take part in Asian rugby tournaments. The governing body is the Guam Rugby Football Union. Rugby came to Guam via three separate streams, firstly, through the visits of British, New Zealand and Australian sailors; secondly, through the American presence, which has been there from the turn of the twentieth century; and thirdly through contact with neighbouring Pacific islands, where the game is popular. Guam has also had a long running, but sometimes tempestuous, relationship with Japan. It is not known if the forces of the Japanese occupation in WWII played the game at all there, but certainly, a large number Japanese retirees have also taken an interest in promoting the game. Modern rugby in Guam, really dates from the 1970s, however. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Tennoe, Mariam T./ Henssonow, Susan F.
