Common questions about Removal Defense
I'm in removal proceedings. Do I have any options?
There are often more options than people assume: cancellation of removal, asylum, and other forms of relief may be available. The facts of your case determine what we can argue.
Can I get out of immigration detention on bond?
In many cases yes. Bond hearings allow an immigration judge to set a bond amount so you can await your case from home. I advocate for release whenever the law allows.
What is cancellation of removal?
Cancellation of removal is a form of relief for long-term residents who meet strict requirements of physical presence, good moral character, and exceptional hardship to a qualifying relative.
What happens if I lose in immigration court?
A loss is not automatically the end. Appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and, in some cases, federal court may be available. I fight for every available avenue.
