Immigration Removal Proceedings

  • In the Matter of A.L.

    We served as lead counsel for Mr. A.L. in the United States Immigration Court in Manhattan. Immigration had placed a hold on Mr. A.L.’s release following a criminal trial because Mr. A.L. had numerous past criminal convictions. The government sought to remove Mr. A.L. in a removal proceeding. We successfully represented Mr. A.L., and he was granted asylum, released, and allowed to remain within the United States.
