Working with Criminal Defense Attorneys

If you have been convicted of a crime or admit the essential elements of a crime, this can have serious consequences in terms of your immigration status. Sometimes, crimes that seem minor can have a huge impact on your immigration status or ability to stay in the U.S. For example, sometimes what can seem like a good plea agreement in criminal court can trigger irreversible immigration consequences. 

If you have been accused of a crime, it is imperative to have an immigraiton attorney working with your criminal defense attorney so you can secure an outcome that does not jeopardize your ability to remain in or enter the U.S.
