Although a green card gives you “a permanent residence” status in the United States, you could be potentially expelled or deported from the country if you commit a federal criminal offense. These offenses include (but are not limited to): smuggling, document fraud, domestic violence, drug offenses, firearm trafficking, money laundering, fraud, espionage, sabotage, terrorism and any other act deemed as a criminal offense.

If you or someone you know is facing deportation, not everything is lost, but time is of the essence. You have 30 days from the date of the court deportation order to appeal and that’s where we come into the picture. We can help you with all the paperwork to represent you and give you a real chance of staying in the country.

If you are an immigrant and have been detained, you will need an immigration bond to be paid to the United States Government. Just like in the case of a regular bail bond, this sum–usually a considerable amount of money– will ensure that you will be appearing in court once you are released from jail. Not doing so would forfeit the bond paid. We work close with immigration bond agencies in the area and can help you getting you released from detention and assist you during all your legal procedures.

The SIJS (Special Immigrant Juvenile Status) is a special immigration status granted to undocumented underage immigrants who can offer proof of abuse, neglect or abandonment by either one or both parents. Under this status, the juvenile can travel to the United States, obtain a green card and stay here.

This visa in particular was designed to help children and adolescents find a safe haven from violence in their home countries.

Even after an immigration case has been finalized, you still have up to 90 days to file a motion to reopen the proceeding either with an immigration judge or the Board of Appeals. If you have a reason to believe that there is enough unheard evidence to overturn a judge’s decision, we can help you request a re-opening.

As an immigrant, regardless of your legal status, you still have the same basic rights any other U.S. Citizen has in this country. According to the ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union), these rights include freedom of speech and religion, the right to privacy, to be treated fairly, and other fundamental rights as well.
