Immigration laws are complex and have changed over the years. If you or a loved one do not have legal status in the US, you could be detained and put in deportation proceedings at any time. In the immediate aftermath of detention, family members often frantically seek to help, but don’t always have all the facts that attorneys need to do so effectively.
In order to best protect you in that situation, it is important to know if you were ever caught trying to enter the U.S. without permission, were ever deported, or have ever applied for status but were denied. Attorney Emily Brooks can request copies of your old records and evaluate them to determine how to best respond if ICE tries to detain and deport you.
