Removal Proceedings
We have extensive experience in
issues relating to removal proceedings and deportation defense.
Since September 30, 1996, and the passage
of the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, the
rights of aliens in the U.S. have been severely curtailed when past criminal
conduct is a factor. Crimes that previously did not cause immigration
consequences can now trigger deportation proceedings against an alien. Crimes as
serious as murder, and as minor as shoplifting, can result in deportation.
We are constantly trying to find creative
solutions to our clients' deportation problems by staying abreast of new laws
and regulations in addition to federal court decisions affecting immigrants. We
vigorously pursue post-conviction remedies in criminal cases to create
affirmative defenses from deportation and/or removal.
If you have an
immigration concern involving deportation or you are in immigration court, we
can provide you with experienced, professional advice. Contact us today to
schedule a free initial consultation. Our phone line is open 24 hours a day for
your convenience.
