Deportation & Removal Defense

Overview

Standing between you and deportation

Removal (deportation) proceedings begin when the government issues a Notice to Appear and files it with the Immigration Court. From there, the case moves through master calendar hearings and, if relief is sought, an individual (merits) hearing before an Immigration Judge.

Many people in proceedings are eligible for relief that allows them to remain in the U.S. — such as cancellation of removal, asylum, adjustment of status, or a waiver. The key is identifying the right defense early and building the evidence to support it.

Defenses and relief we pursue

• Bond hearings seeking release from detention on a reasonable bond.
• Cancellation of removal for certain long-term residents and non-residents.
• Asylum & related relief protection for those who fear returning home.
• Adjustment & waivers green-card relief and waivers raised in court.
