Wyoming Judicial Branch — Legal Help — The state court system’s legal-help portal lists low-cost and free civil legal-aid resources and self-help materials for Wyoming residents. It is a general civil legal-aid directory and does not itself provide immigration representation; for immigration matters its legal-services directory points users to organizations such as the Wyoming Immigrant Advocacy Project.

Wyoming has no immigration court of its own. Removal (deportation) cases for Wyoming residents are heard by the EOIR Denver Immigration Court in Denver, Colorado, which has jurisdiction over Wyoming. Immigrant Hope – Wyoming/Idaho is a DOJ-recognized organization (recognized August 15, 2016) with DOJ-accredited representatives on staff, plus access to an immigration attorney. The Wyoming Immigrant Advocacy Project is not a BIA-recognized organization but does not need recognition because it is staffed by a licensed immigration attorney. The U.S. Department of Justice (EOIR) publishes a List of Pro Bono Legal Service Providers for that court. None of the organizations on this page pay us — these are public-interest referrals, not sponsored links.

⚠️ Important: Avoid fraudulent “notarios”

AVOID PEOPLE CALLING THEMSELVES “NOTARIO PÚBLICO” FOR IMMIGRATION if not attorneys or BIA-accredited reps. US notary publics are NOT attorneys (unlike Latin America). People without legal credentials practicing immigration are violating federal law.
