Removal/Deportation
Current immigration law with regards to Removal (Deportation) is quite unforgiving and the results for committing even minor criminal infractions can be devastating to families and long-time residents of the United States. Although fewer and fewer exist, Lawful Permanent Residents and undocumented immigrants have some defenses to being removed from the United States. The remedies depend on the length of time present in the United States, the family ties, and the criminal offense committed, if any.
Additionally, cases may be reopened, after an order of removal has been entered, for a few reasons such as being ineffectively represented by previous counsel.
Even if an individual has been deported, there may be a waiver available that would allow that individual to return to the United States if granted permission by the government.
Deportation defense cases are very fact specific as well as very difficult. Our office offers free email or phone consultations to determine if we may have a way to assist you. .
