Standing With You in Immigration Court

Receiving a notice to appear in immigration court is frightening, and the process is confusing even for people who speak English well. The first thing we do is explain, plainly, what is happening and what the steps are. The second is to look hard for the relief that may be available, because in many cases there is more than people expect.

Depending on the situation, that may mean asking the court to let someone stay based on their ties to the country, their family, or the danger they would face if returned. It may mean a bond hearing to seek release while the case is pending. Every case is different, and the right strategy depends on the facts, which is why an early, honest review matters so much.
