Another lawyer interviewed in the piece:
A few months ago, I had a similar conversation with another attorney. This attorney practices post-conviction law. I had called to talk about another matter, but the conversation inevitably turned to Trump. This attorney mentioned that he’d recently had some work done on his home, and had gotten to know one of the contractors. The contractor was undocumented, and feared he may be deported. In the 20-some years he’d been in the U.S., this contractor had done well for himself — he owned his contracting business, his home, and some property. He asked if the attorney could help him transfer the business and title to his home and property to his son, who is a U.S. citizen. The attorney and his wife — who is also a lawyer — agreed to help. “As my wife and I started filling out the paperwork, we realized that we might be doing this sort of work for other people over the next few years, so she suggested we bring up one of the old desktops from the basement, so whatever immigration work we were doing would be on a separate computer.” The attorney’s college-aged son had taken an interest in all of this. “My son asked if what we were doing was illegal. I told him it was all perfectly legal. Then he asked me a question I really couldn’t answer: Why did we feel like we had to take these steps to hide legal work that was perfectly legal? And all I could think to say was that this is the kind of country we live in now.”
