THE CHARGE ISN'T THE VERDICT.
A Notice to Appear is the government's charging document, not an immigration judge's final removal decision. The first hearings can involve admitting or denying allegations, contesting charges and identifying available relief. What goes into the record matters.
Read the document. Check the court notices. Gather the immigration history and certified criminal records if applicable. Make every concession deliberate.
Steel & Associates, A Professional Law Corporation reviews the charges, the evidence and the available paths forward.
