Criminal Deportation / Removal Defense
At The Shulman Law Group, LLC our immigration lawyers have experience with those
who are in the United States, and have been charged or convicted of a
crime, and are subsequently placed in deportation or removal
proceedings.
Since September 30, 1996 and the passage of the Illegal Immigration
Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996, (Pub. L. No. 104-208,
110 Stat. 3009 "IIRAIRA"), the rights of aliens in the United States
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 a deportation.
Our lawyers are constantly seeking 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 also vigorously pursue post-conviction remedies in criminal cases to
create affirmative defenses from deportation and /or removal, or to allow
aliens to qualify for deportation /removal discretionary waivers.
Our attorneys know the proper defenses and proofs to offer the judge in
a deportation/removal hearing. In the past, we have shown that our clients
have successfully been rehabilitated or show remorse, that they have
strong family ties, or longevity in the United
States.
There are three agencies, which may have jurisdiction or input into a
deportation or removal proceeding:
If you need a visa, wish to immigrate, or want to help bring a family
member or employee to the United States, we can help. If you are facing
deportation or removal for any reason, you need our help. You may contact our
offices for more information or to schedule an appointment.
Please fill out the immigration
questionnaire and bring it with you for your initial consultation with
our immigration lawyers.
