A non-detained case is one where the person is not held in immigration custody.<\/p>\n<p>Removal starts with a <a href=\"https:\/\/uscode.house.gov\/us\/usc\/119-121\/t8\/s1229\/\">Notice to Appear<\/a>. The notice must state the charges, the time and place of the hearing, and the consequences of failing to appear, except under exceptional circumstances.<\/p>\n<p>If you aren&#8217;t sure whether someone is in custody, the <a href=\"https:\/\/locator.ice.gov\/odls\/\">ICE Online Detainee Locator System<\/a> is the official ICE tool for finding people held in immigration detention.<\/p>\n<p>Being out of custody doesn&#8217;t end the case. Hearings still happen, and a removal order can still be entered. That&#8217;s why deadlines matter just as much. You may be represented at the hearing by an attorney or another qualified representative (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1240.3\">8 CFR 1240.3<\/a>).<\/p>\n<h2>Who This Service Is For<\/h2>\n<p>This service is for people in Broward County and across Florida who face removal proceedings, whether or not they are in custody. It fits several common situations:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>You received a Notice to Appear and are not in custody.<\/li>\n<li>You have a hearing coming up and want a lawyer by your side.<\/li>\n<li>You want to file for asylum as a defense against removal.<\/li>\n<li>You received a removal order and are weighing an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals.<\/li>\n<li>You have a green card, family petition, or naturalization matter that overlaps with a removal case.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Immigration matters often overlap. A family petition or green card question can affect how a removal case is handled. Share your full history from the start so nothing is missed.<\/p>\n<h2>What Our Removal Defense Covers<\/h2>\n<p>Our removal defense work covers the charges, the possible relief, the evidence, and every filing in the case. Here is what that includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Review of charges.<\/strong> We review the Notice to Appear and the charges it lists against you.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Asylum.<\/strong> Asylum can be filed defensively in immigration court. The one-year filing period is calculated from your last arrival in the United States or April 1, 1997, whichever is later, and exceptions to the deadline may apply (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1208.4\">8 CFR 1208.4<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cancellation of removal.<\/strong> Whether this relief may be available depends on the facts of each case and the requirements set out in the law.<\/li>\n<li>Under the asylum statute, if the trier of fact determines that you should provide evidence corroborating otherwise credible testimony, you must provide it unless you do not have the evidence and cannot reasonably obtain it (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/uscode\/text\/8\/1158\">8 U.S.C. \u00a7 1158<\/a>).<\/li>\n<li><strong>Credibility.<\/strong> In deciding whether to believe your account, a judge may consider your demeanor and candor and whether your statements are consistent with each other and with the other evidence in the record.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Motions and appeals.<\/strong> We prepare motions in immigration court and appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Related matters.<\/strong> We review how adjustment of status, waivers, family petitions, removal of conditions on a green card, and naturalization affect the removal case.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>How the Process Works, Step by Step<\/h2>\n<p>A removal case moves from the first notice to hearings, filings, and possibly an appeal. Each stage has its own timing rules.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Share your notice and dates.<\/strong> Bring or send the Notice to Appear and any hearing papers as soon as you receive them.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paid consultation.<\/strong> The responsible lawyer reviews the charges, your history, and possible relief, then explains next steps.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Gather evidence.<\/strong> Documents, timelines, and witness statements are collected and organized.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hearings.<\/strong> The first hearing can&#8217;t be set earlier than 10 days after the notice is served, unless you ask for an earlier date in writing (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/uscode\/text\/8\/1229\">8 U.S.C. \u00a7 1229<\/a>). You must also give a written address and phone number where you can be reached.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Appeal.<\/strong> An immigration judge&#8217;s decision can be appealed by filing Form EOIR-26 with the Board (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.3\">8 CFR 1003.3<\/a>). The appealing parties are only those parties who are covered by the decision of an immigration judge and who are specifically named on the Notice of Appeal. Generally, a Notice of Appeal (Form EOIR-26) from an Immigration Judge decision must be filed directly with the Board within 10 calendar days of the decision (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.38\">8 CFR 1003.38<\/a>). Appeals from certain asylum decisions carry a 30-calendar-day deadline when the application was not denied under section 208(a)(2)(A), (B), or (C) of the Act (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ecfr.gov\/on\/2026-10-20\/title-8\/section-1003.38\">8 CFR 1003.38<\/a>).<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>How long each stage takes varies with the court&#8217;s calendar and the case itself.<\/p>\n<h2>Consultation Fees and What to Bring<\/h2>\n<p>The consultation is a paid service in which the responsible lawyer reviews your case and explains possible next steps. Government filing fees and other case costs are separate from attorney fees, and our team will explain the consultation fee when you call.<\/p>\n<p>Bring these items to your consultation:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Your Notice to Appear and any hearing notices<\/li>\n<li>Your passport and other identity documents<\/li>\n<li>Prior immigration filings, such as applications or approvals<\/li>\n<li>Records of entries and departures from the United States<\/li>\n<li>Any removal order or decision you have received<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bring everything, even papers you think don&#8217;t matter. The lawyer can decide what counts.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"cta-dose-mid wp-block-group has-base-color has-accent-background-color has-text-color has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-32197852 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"background-color:var(--wp--preset--color--accent,#20242e);color:var(--wp--preset--color--base,#ffffff);border-radius:8px;padding-top:1.5rem;padding-bottom:1.5rem;padding-left:1.5rem;padding-right:1.5rem;border-left:6px solid var(--wp--preset--color--cta,currentColor);box-shadow:0 2px 10px rgba(0,0,0,0.18)\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-base-color has-text-color\">Not sure what your next step is?<\/h3><p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Talk it through with our team &#8212; we can walk you through how a situation like yours is usually handled and what your options are.<\/p><div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><div class=\"wp-block-button chg-cta-call\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"tel:+19546413445\">Schedule a consultation<\/a><\/div><div class=\"wp-block-button chg-cta-form\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/abogadadrianagomez.com\/contact\/\">Schedule a consultation<\/a><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<h2>Why Work With AG Immigration Law P.A. on Removal Defense<\/h2>\n<p>AG Immigration Law P.A. focuses on immigration law, with removal defense at the center of its practice.
