I am looking for an immigration lawyer/attorney but don't understand the difference between the two. Is there a cost difference? Which is better? I'm in Texas by the way.

Two names for the same thing.

Lawyer, attorney, barrister, solicitor, counselor, counsel. These are all titles for the exact same position.
I refer to myself as a lawyer and an attorney interchangeably - but I find that I use attorney more often when I am writing and lawyer more often when I am speaking. Sometimes I will introduce myself as "counsel for the petitioner," etc. When judges get irritated, I find that they call us "counselor." It's just a matter of habit and personal preference.

attorney is a person legally authorized to act for another, he/she could be a lawyer; while a lawyer is a person knowledgeable of the laws and or maker of the laws, he/she not necessarily an attorney.
