The USC needs to file the petition- not you. A lawyer cannot help with AP. Syrians are heavily vetted, and there is no way around that.
If you are not married, you cannot be petitioned for a CR-1.
Yes, she will fill the form, but I am researching

Thanks a lot! I will take a look over there

There's a place on the form to list all names ever used. Yes, you'll want to include the name change documents - get it translated if it's not in English.
Thanks a lot! I will keep that in mind when we fill the form

If he is your fiance then you cannot go for CR1 visa. Your process would go under K1-visa. If your have an option to go for spousal visa, go that route since the waiting time is the same, plus you have additional prolonged wait once you do arrive in the US to adjust status and recieve paperwork. That is the first thing you need to clear, and then dig through threads, I am sure there were and are plenty of people with a similar situation.
I'm sorry for the confusion. We're getting married next month so I'm asking ahead. From what I have gathered, a spousal visa is the way to go.

You have listed nothing that would warrant involvement of a lawyer. There may be some additional time in AP, but that's normal.
Thank you very much for the answer. One more point I forgot to mention and it might be a totally different question is that I changed my name once I received my Turkish citizenship. So now it is different from the name on my birth certificate. Do I need to include a document that shows my name change? And where do I include that? Should it be when I submit my 130? 130a? Or later on?

Hello,
I reside in Turkey and I recently got the Turkish citizenship. My place of birth is Syria. My fiance is an American citizen. I was told by some people that there might be complications for my case as I was born in Syria. Keep in mind I have been living in Turkey since 2015 under Temporary Protection. Would those circumstances warrant hiring a lawyer to help file the documents? Or should I go about it like everyone else and do it myself?
Is lawyer assistance necessary for my case?

Yes. We're getting married next month. My (future) wife and I will be filing the petition together, but I am doing some research ahead of time. Isn't the process entirely online anyway?
