Facing Deportation?

Deportation of immigrants and other individuals may result as a consequence for entering the United States illegally. You can also be deported if you are not a citizen and have committed a serious crime.

Deportation occurs when the federal government formally removes an alien from the United States for violating immigration laws. Once deported, an alien may lose the right to ever return to the United States, even as a visitor. Livelihoods and families may be impacted, and in some cases, a deported alien may end up living in a "homeland" that he or she has little familiarity with.

Deportation is a legal proceeding, and anyone who is subject to the procedure has a legal right to challenge it prior to being removed from the country. A legal challenge involves appearances before a government body and the laws involved are complex and constantly changing. As a result, legal representation is essential for your best chance of avoiding deportation.

If you are at risk of being deported, call the Law Office of Haitham Ballout & Associates today.

Our attorneys are in immigration court every day. We know the processes and procedures so your case is done right the first time.

The United States government recognizes that there are millions of people in this country without valid documents. Many are fearful to return to their own countries due to persecution by their government or by another party from which their government or law enforcement agency cannot protect them. Recent changes in immigration laws have made it difficult for people to fulfill the necessary requirements to stay in the U.S. Many immigrants may not know about the changes in procedures or may have been misguided in the past. We can help you through this difficult and complex process.
