Pricing & Payment Options
We believe in fairness, accessibility, and excellence without compromise.
At Amba Law, you’ll always know your total cost upfront. We use a flat-fee model so you can focus on results—not billable hours.
Our Fee Model for Form N-400 Services: Flexible, Fair & Transparent
At Amba Law, we believe legal support should fit your unique journey — not a one-size-fits-all approach. You choose the services you need, pay only for those services, and benefit from our refugee discount where eligible.
Where are you in your integration journey?
We recognise that integration into U.S. society happens in stages. Some clients are just beginning their path here; others have been here longer and feel more comfortable navigating parts of the process themselves.

Attorney Amba’s Approach
When Attorney Amba first applied for citizenship, he couldn’t afford a lawyer and was denied for a technicality. He built Amba Law so no one else would have to navigate the system alone.
After over three years working as a public defender—taking every case for the same flat fee—he transitioned into corporate law billing by the hour.
He now draws on both those experiences, and his own experience as an immigrant who once underwent the citizenship/naturalization process after college without much and without representation, to set fair and transparent pricing.
Here, every client receives the same dedication once reserved for corporate clients—without the corporate prices.
