Criminal Defense Law

Criminal Defense Law

Non-citizens who are facing criminal charges have a unique set of concerns and issues. Most criminal defense attorneys are inexperienced in immigration law and may end up harming the client’s immigration status or putting them at a heightened risk of removal. Our criminal defense attorney has extensive immigration law experience. We work hard to protect our clients from current charges while keeping an eye on any immigration concerns.

 
Controlled Substance Crime

Controlled Substance Crime

 
 
 

Controlled Substance Crime Any charges relating to a controlled substance such as possession, intent to sell, or manufacturing of a controlled substance carry serious consequences for non-U.S. citizens. Being convicted of a controlled substance crime can subject the defendant to mandatory immigration detention, and possible deportation. When charged with one of these crimes, we work directly with our client to pursue a resolution that allows them to avoid these consequences.

 
DWI for Immigrants

DWI

 

DWI A charge for DWI can be extremely disruptive to one’s life. The defendant stands to lose their driving privileges, pay enormous fines, and typically must appear before a judge to resolve the charge. A DWI charge can be especially concerning if the defendant is not a U.S. citizen for various reasons. Our criminal defense attorneys are experienced at navigating DWI’s for our client’s who are yet to become U.S. citizens. When working on a DWI charge, we fully analyze our client’s options while being mindful of their immigration status.
