Can anybody recommend a good immigration lawyer?

You might need to be more specific - what kind of case, any location requirements etc. But best to start your own new thread rather than hijacking the OP's, and then hopefully people can advise.

I’m sorry.  I’ve never used this platform and have no clue on how to start my own thread.  I was denied entry into the U.S. trying to make a biometrics appointment for my adjustment of status application.  Now I have no clue on my status and am possibly facing a ban. My wife ( American) and I (Singaporean) are both distraught with the situation and are looking for any help we can get.

No worries. It's just the 'start new topic' button, but I'll flag this and ask a kind mod to move it your own thread for you. 

 

You might want to give more info - why you were outside the US if you were applying for AOS, whether you had AP, what your status was in the US that you were applying to adjust from, etc. Those in the know can then try and help.

 

Good luck.

You need to supply a timeline and some basic information.

 

You mention AoS, so you were in the US filed and left after obtaining Advanced Parole?

 

Or what?

“If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”
