Trusted US Deportation Defense Attorneys

The United States has the highest number of immigrants in the world, with over 45 million living within its borders. However, not all immigrants are able to stay in the US indefinitely. In fact, thousands of individuals and families face deportation proceedings every year.

Deportation is a legal process that removes an individual from the country for violating immigration laws or committing criminal offenses. In some cases, individuals may be eligible to apply for relief from deportation, but navigating the complex legal system can be daunting without proper representation.

Our team understands the emotional toll that deportation proceedings can take on individuals and their families, which is why we are dedicated to providing personalized attention and strategic defense strategies for each of our clients. If you or a loved one is facing deportation, contact us today to schedule a consultation and learn more about how we can help.

US Immigration Violations and Deportation

There are various reasons why individuals may face deportation proceedings in the US. Some of the most common immigration violations that can lead to deportation include:

  • Overstaying a visa or violating terms of entry: Immigrants who enter the country on visas have specific time limits for their stay and must follow certain conditions. If an individual overstays their visa or violates these conditions, they may be subject to deportation.
  • Illegal entry: This includes individuals who enter the country without proper documentation or through unauthorized means, such as crossing the border illegally.
  • Criminal offenses: Individuals who commit crimes in the US, including both misdemeanors and felonies, can face deportation proceedings. This is especially true for serious offenses such as drug trafficking, violent crimes, and fraud.
  • Failure to update immigration status: Non-citizens in the US are required to maintain valid and current immigration status, such as renewing visas or applying for green cards. Failure to do so may result in deportation.
  • Immigration fraud: Providing false information or documents during the immigration process can lead to deportation if discovered later.

Our experienced deportation attorneys can analyze your case and provide personalized attention to help you develop a strategic defense strategy.

US Deportation Process

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is responsible for initiating deportation proceedings and issuing a Notice to Appear (NTA). This document outlines the reasons for deportation and specifies a hearing date before an immigration judge.
During the hearing, you have the right to present evidence and arguments in your defense. The immigration judge will also consider any mitigating factors, such as family ties to the US or medical conditions, before making a decision.

If the judge orders deportation, you have the right to appeal the decision to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). However, this must be done within 30 days of the final order of removal.

If your case is not successful at the BIA level, you may be able to appeal to the US Circuit Court of Appeals. It is important to note that the deportation process can be lengthy and complex, so it is crucial to have a skilled attorney by your side.






Possible Deportation Defense Strategies and Outcomes

Every deportation case is unique, and the best defense strategies will depend on the specific circumstances of each individual’s case. Some possible defenses that our deportation lawyers may use include:

  • Adjustment of Status: In cases where an individual is eligible to apply for a green card, our attorneys may pursue adjustment of status as a defense against deportation.
  • Asylum: Individuals who have suffered persecution in their home country due to factors such as race, religion, or political opinion may be eligible for asylum and can use it as a defense against deportation.
  • Cancellation of Removal: In some cases, individuals who have been living in the US for a certain period of time and can prove their good moral character may be eligible for cancellation of removal and can use it as a defense against deportation.
  • Prosecutorial Discretion: Our attorneys may also argue for prosecutorial discretion, which allows immigration authorities to temporarily halt or dismiss deportation proceedings in certain cases. This can be a crucial defense strategy, especially for individuals with strong ties to the US and no serious criminal history.
  • Humanitarian Relief: In some cases, our deportation lawyers may argue for humanitarian relief, such as Temporary Protected Status (TPS) or Deferred Enforced Departure (DED), which allows individuals from certain countries experiencing crisis or conflict to remain in the US temporarily.
  • Challenging the Basis of Deportation: Our US deportation defense attorneys may also challenge the basis of deportation, for example by arguing that the individual’s actions do not meet the legal definition of a deportable offense or that they have been targeted based on factors such as race or nationality.

Appeals From the Decision of an Immigration Judge

Should an individual’s case be denied by an immigration judge, our deportation defense attorneys can also handle the appeals process. This involves presenting arguments and evidence to a higher court in order to overturn the decision of the immigration judge. Our attorneys have extensive experience in immigration appeals and can provide strong representation for individuals seeking to overturn a deportation order.

In addition, our attorneys can also assist with bond hearings and post-conviction relief, which can help individuals who have been detained by immigration authorities or who have been convicted of a crime. We understand the complexities of the US immigration system and are dedicated to providing our clients with the best possible defense against deportation. Our goal is to help individuals and their families stay together and achieve their immigration goals.
