Removal Defense

When facing removal proceedings, time is critical. Our experienced attorneys provide aggressive representation to stop deportation and protect your rights.

Removal Defense Overview

Removal proceedings, also known as deportation cases, are civil proceedings conducted by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR). These proceedings determine whether you should be removed from the United States.

Why Removal Defense Matters

A removal order can have devastating consequences, including permanent bars to re-entry, loss of employment, and family separation. Our attorneys fight aggressively to prevent deportation and explore all available options.
