Deportation Defense

U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services refers to deportation as the “formal removal of an alien from the United States when an alien  has been found removable for violating immigration laws.” Currently, there are many common defenses against deportation.

At Sethi Law Group, we understand that those individuals facing removal and deportation risk leaving behind family members, often times including young children and elderly parents alike, and they risk creating an emotional and psychological hardship for all of those involved. At Sethi Law Group we understand that deportation does not only affect the alien, but it affects the alien’s family.

​

​

Some of the common defenses against deportation include, but are not limited, to the following:

​

1. Asylum, Withholding of Removal and Relief under the Convention Against Torture;

2. Prosecutorial Discretion;

3. Motions for Administrative Closure;

4. U-Visas;

5. EOIR 42B, Non-Legal Permanent Resident Cancellation of Removal;

6. Motions to Terminate;

7. I-246 Stay of Deportation or Removal Applications;

8. Motions to Reopen / Reconsider;

9. Other defenses
