Aggressive, Strategic Representation in Immigration Court
Facing deportation is one of the most serious challenges an immigrant can encounter. At Ellison Hernandez, PLLC, we provide comprehensive removal defense for individuals who are in removal (deportation) proceedings before the Immigration Court. Our goal is to protect your rights and fight for your opportunity to stay in the United States legally.
Whether your case involves a complex application for relief, a contested hearing, or an immigration appeal, our office is prepared to stand by you every step of the way.
Contested Removal Proceedings
If you or your loved one has received a Notice to Appear (NTA) in Immigration Court, you are now a respondent in removal proceedings. The government may try to deport you based on immigration violations, criminal history, or unlawful presence.
We represent clients at all stages of EOIR proceedings, including:
- Master Calendar Hearings
- Merits/Individual Hearings
- Challenging grounds of removability
- Filing, and litigating, relief applications before EOIR
- Asserting defenses and preserving appellate rights
Relief from Removal (Applications Before the Court)
We prepare and file all eligible forms of immigration relief, including:
- Asylum, Withholding of Removal, and CAT Protection
- Cancellation of Removal for Non-LPRs (42B)
- Cancellation of Removal for LPRs (42A)
- Voluntary Departure
- Adjustment of Status in Court
Appeals Before the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)
If your case is denied by the Immigration Judge, we can file an appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). We assist with:
- Legal briefs and written arguments
- Identifying legal and procedural errors
- Filing emergency stay requests
- Coordinating with federal appellate counsel if needed
Motions to Reopen
If you missed your court hearing and received an in-absentia removal order, or if new evidence arises, we may be able to help you reopen your case.
We assist with:
- Filing motions to reopen based on exceptional circumstances or new evidence
- Motions to rescind in absentia orders due to lack of notice or valid reasons for missing court
- Supporting documentation and legal arguments to support reopening
