Re: Question please, pre EB-5

Would working with a relatively famous lawyer in the eb-5 industry who also takes corporate clients (i.e. eb-5 regional centers) cause "conflict of interests", assuming I hire him before choosing any regional centers?

Any input? If I hire a lawyer indecently without knowing if he serves regional centers, couldn't he get sued by being not having proper lawyer conduct?
