A deportation defense lawyer represents a noncitizen in removal proceedings, the case in Immigration Court that decides whether a person may stay in the United States. If you have a notice to appear or a hearing date, the choices you make early can shape the rest of your case. AG Immigration Law P.A. focuses on removal defense and related immigration matters. This page explains what that work involves, so you know what to expect and what to bring.<\/p>\n

What Deportation Defense Means and Who Needs It<\/h2>\n

Deportation defense means representing a noncitizen in removal proceedings before an immigration judge. Removal proceedings start when a notice to appear is filed with the immigration court (8 C.F.R. \u00a7 1239.1<\/a>).<\/p>\n

People usually need removal defense when they have a pending hearing, a removal order, or a criminal or immigration issue that drew government attention. Family members often face these questions on behalf of a relative who has received a notice to appear.<\/p>\n

Two points matter early. First, you may have an attorney of your choice in these proceedings, at no expense to the government (8 C.F.R. \u00a7 1003.16<\/a>). Second, your first hearing cannot be set earlier than 10 days after the notice is served, unless you request an earlier date in writing. That window exists so you can secure counsel (8 U.S.C. \u00a7 1229<\/a>).<\/p>\n\n
