Deportation Defense

Exploring Every Option Available For Your Deportation Defense

Motions To Reopen

If you are currently in the United States or have been in the United States and have a deportation order, you may be eligible to have your case reopened and you may be able to legalize your situation in the United States. Serving Immigrants can provide you with a detailed case analysis to determine whether you or a loved one are eligible to have your case reopened as the law changes frequently and Serving Immigrants have recently had much success with motions to reopen due to no notice received and due to recent changes in the law.

Cancellation Of Removal For Lawful Permanent Residents

If you or a loved one is a permanent resident of the United States but has been told that you or may be removed or deported from the United States either for crimes you have committed or were accused of or some other reason, you need to act quickly to apply for relief from deportation. One such form or relief is cancellation of removal for lawful permanent residents. We can help you stay in the United States by assisting you with that form of relief from removal.

Cancellation Of Removal For Non-Lawful Permanent Residents

If you or a loved one has been told that they may be removed from the country (commonly called deported), you need to act quickly before you are ordered removed and physically deported from the United States. If you have been in the United States for the last ten (10) years, we can help you stay in the United States, and if necessary, regularize your immigration status so you have less to worry about. This is not something you want to delay, and we can help streamline the entire process for you.

Waivers Of Deportation

There are different types of waivers of deportation depending on the crime for which you have been convicted, the amount of time you have been in the United States, your legal status in the United States at the time of applying for the waiver, and which, if any relatives, you have in the United States. Waivers are complex but Serving Immigrants has many years of experience with waivers. Therefore, if you would like to apply for a waiver, please contact Serving Immigrants, Inc. so we can assist you in determining whether you are eligible for a waiver, for which waiver you are available, and what documents you need in order to be successful to have your waiver granted.
