I'M A LAWFUL PERMANENT RESIDENT. WHY WON'T THEY LET ME BACK INTO THE UNITED STATES?!
There are SO many things that may affect your eligibility to obtain immigration status, keep your immigration status, travel, etc.
One of the biggest things that affect all of the above is your criminal history - the exact offense, statute it falls under, date of offense, range of punishment for said offense.
When I say all of the above, I very much mean all of the above. Even if you have been a lawful permanent resident for 20 years, certain criminal convictions could cause you to be at risk of losing your greencard or even being denied entry after returning from traveling to some harmless beach resort.
It is SO IMPORTANT to have a criminal attorney who knows how to best handle your criminal case by itself AND especially with how it will affect your immigration eligibility/status.
LUCKILY, Malik Law Firm, PLLC handles BOTH AND ONLY criminal and immigration cases! If you ever have criminal, immigration, or "crimmigration" questions, don't hesitate to call!
