Immigrants and non-citizens often dream of achieving U.S. residency or citizenship. Unfortunately, deportation or removal proceedings can quickly shatter this dream.
Though there are many different issues that can result in deportation, such proceedings are typically associated with some form of criminal or unlawful activity. At Nepa & McGraw, we represent and defend clients who have been convicted of or charged with deportable criminal offenses including:
Non-citizens have discovered that even unintentional immigration violations and minor crimes can bring about extreme consequences, among which is deportation. In most instances, aliens deported by the United States are unable to return to the country for up to five years. In some cases, deported aliens are not allowed to return to the United States at all.
When it comes to removal proceedings, common forms of relief to prevent deportation include waivers of inadmissibility, cancellation of removal, adjustment of status, asylum, and U Visas for crime victims. In some instances, it may also be possible for prior removal orders, deportation orders, or voluntary departure orders to be reopened or reconsidered.
