U.S. Deportation Proceedings
The U.S. justice system is complex. Even for natural born citizens and their lawyers, it can be quite difficult to understand the procedures that exist and how they work. The laws themselves are subject to change whenever a new president takes over the White House. Policies will differ from one president to the next.
Today, it is not uncommon for legal residents to face deportation for even minor drug offenses. This is largely unfair because many states are moving to legalize drugs like marijuana. When simple possession of marijuana can have a potentially catastrophic effect on someone’s life, the system is not working the way it should. That being said, the current administration has put forth an anti-immigration policy that has otherwise law-abiding immigrants appearing before immigration judges and facing deportation.
It is important to have a skilled Kalamazoo County deportation defense lawyer manage your case. If you are concerned that you might be deported, give our office a call.
Grounds for Deportation
When an immigrant faces a deportation order, the government will offer the court grounds on which the immigrant should be deported. In other words, the government needs a reason to deport an immigrant. These grounds can include:
- Certain kinds of criminal offenses;
- Overstaying a visa;
- Violating the terms of a visa;
- Lying on an application;
- Missing deadlines imposed by the court; or
- Being involved with criminal organizations.
The Department of Homeland Security will issue a notice to appear. The notice will include the government’s reason for deporting the immigrant. A hearing will be scheduled during which an attorney representing the immigrant and an attorney for the DHS will offer arguments as to why the immigrant should or should not be deported. The judge will then decide whether or not the immigrant should be deported.
If the judgment goes against you, you can still appeal the decision.

I have heard from several people that Brittni is a great attorney. When my friend was detained, I recommended Brittni to take his case. She did an amazing job putting together all the necessary information, especially given that we had only a couple of days to submit the habeas corpus application. She and her team worked very professionally and provided clear guidance throughout. She stayed in touch consistently and was…
