Criminal defense and removal hearings
Most immigrants who are facing deportation or removal proceedings have either been convicted of a crime or have been charged with a serious crime. Though some criminal acts can result in immediate deportation, others have reduced penalties. If you have a green card or residency status and have been charged with a crime, you need immediate legal attention. Our criminal defense attorney may be able to negotiate a plea that will prevent deportation or removal. Contact us today to learn more about your rights.

Depending on the charges you face, or your conviction, you may be able to prevent deportation. Let us work with prosecutors and negotiate a plea that will protect your residency status.

If you have already been convicted of a crime:
If you have already been convicted and you are seeking assistance in a deportation proceeding, there may be legal remedies available to you. We may be able to file habeas corpus and post-judgment motions to correct or vacate a federal or state conviction. We may also be able to challenge the validity of the judgment through a "collateral attack." Other remedies include a petition for asylum, cancellation of removal, and the withholding of removal. In the event that we cannot prevent your deportation, we may advise you to accept voluntary departure to minimize the consequences and prevent a forced departure.

Our attorney has significant experience with the USCIS (formerly, the INS) and the DHS, and we have appeared before the Immigration Court, the Board of Immigration Appeals, the Executive Office of Immigration Review, and the federal courts.
