The penalty if convicted can be imprisonment and fines for both parties and the deportation of the foreign national. It is very odd for an attorney to advise a client to allude federal authorities. Any attorney giving such counsel would be committing a criminal offense, a breach of conduct and most assuredly not protecting his client's best interest.
