If someone came here illegally from Nicaragua and has been here for 7 years, working with his Tax payer number as his social security number. And he marries a US citizen 2 years ago, do you think it will be easy to get a green card and be able to live here and work without problems. Do you think they will need a Immigration Lawyer? Where to begin this process?

Get a lawyer to cover all bases. The process is lengthly but straightforward. You're looking at a couple of years at least if my case provides any reference. The process starts with applying for a K1 visa, which is a visa to bring a spouse to the US with a green card. The spouse will likely have to leave the country for up to a year if the system stays the way it is right now. The attorney will help make sure everything is in order to avoid problems and can advise you each step of the way.

Check with a lawyer, but I don't think there would be any problem, as if you marry a US citizen everything is solved
I know a person from venezuela who came, got married and stayed, just like that
