H-1B Visa Lawyer Fees in Beverly Hills
H-1B visa lawyer fees in Beverly Hills, California average about $3,950 — roughly 114% of the U.S. average and below the California state average of $4,850.
What this typically includes
Registering for the H-1B lottery, preparing and filing the Labor Condition Application (LCA) and the I-129 petition with supporting evidence, and responding to any Request for Evidence (RFE). Government filing fees (mostly employer-paid) and optional premium processing are separate.
The H-1B visa is governed by uniform federal immigration law, so the rules and government fees are the same nationwide. One thing is location-specific. The prevailing wage your employer must pay is set by the job’s worksite, so the same role carries a higher required salary in California’s higher-cost metros.
H-1B attorney fees are a flat legal fee, commonly $2,000–$5,000, and are almost always paid by the sponsoring employer. They are separate from the government filing fees. Because the law is federal, the employer can use a business-immigration attorney anywhere — you are not limited to California.

What affects H-1B visa lawyer fees in Beverly Hills

- Cap vs. cap-exempt — University and nonprofit (cap-exempt) petitions skip the lottery but still need filing.
- Request for Evidence — A likely RFE means extra preparation and response work.
