Have you tried to go to Laurel Scotts chat on Wednesdays? She specializes on waivers.
Laurel Scott
$ 7000 is a lot..
The good news is that you can write your waiver yourself and the approval rate in Mexico is 90 %!
We used Laurel Scott and our waiver was denied.. so there is no guarantee.

There are a lot of members who are going through Mexico and most of them, don't use a lawyer.
Good luck to you!

I would agree with what Butterfly is saying, $7000 for a waiver!!!!! Forget it! 
the most important thing about a "good" waiver is preparation and construction, definately go to immigrate2us.net, read through the examples of approved waivers, that's all you need! and that's what we did. All the sucessful waivers I've read never paid one cent to an immigration lawyer
do not waste any money on that!

Unfortunately I did not find VJ or I2US till after I had a lawyer do my I-601.It costs me $2000.Our waiver was approved through Mexico but I think it still would have been approved even if I did everything myself.$7000 is just crazy
