Prepare Your Defense against Removal Proceedings with an Experienced Immigration Trial Attorney

In removal / deportation hearings in the United States  you have the right to have your case heard and decided fairly before an Immigration Judge.

An experienced immigration trial attorney can help you analyze the charges listed on your Notice To Appear, build a defense against deportation, and represent you in front of the judge in immigration court (EOIR).

Complex Cases

Deportation and removal issues are incredibly complex, and it is often difficult to understand what the government’s basis for removal proceeding is. An experienced immigration attorney will select the best option for defense, insure all important pieces of evidence are considered by the judge, and work with you to develop your strongest case.

Many immigrants to the United States qualify for programs which are unknown to them, and immigration laws can change over time. These changes and programs often make the difference between deportation and successful protection against removal. A family member or employer may be able to petition on your behalf, you may be eligible for asylum or cancellation of removal, or there may be protective measures which apply but do not apply in other cases.

Cancellation of Removal

There are different criteria for Cancellation of Removal depending on whether you are a Lawful Permanent Resident (green card holder) or a Non-Permanent Resident:

• Held permanent resident status for at least 5 years

• You have lived and maintained presence in the U.S. for at least 10 years
