Did you receive a court date?
Removal proceedings begin with a Notice to Appear. At the first hearing (master calendar hearing), the judge reviews the charges and asks what defense you will present. What is said there can affect the rest of the case.
Check your next hearing date at acis.eoir.justice.gov or at 1-800-898-7180 with your A-Number.
How we represent you.
Review of the Notice to Appear and the file
Appearing with you at master calendar hearings and the final hearing
Preparing applications for relief, such as asylum, withholding of removal, and CAT protection
Motions to continue (postponement) when your case needs more time
Appeal to the BIA if the judge rules against you.
We also handle other forms of relief before the Court: bond, cancellation of removal for permanent residents and non-permanent residents, adjustment of status before the judge, voluntary departure, and administrative closure or termination of the case when appropriate.
Never miss a hearing.
If you do not appear, the judge can order your removal in absentia. If that has already happened, there may still be options: see our Motions to Reopen page.
The sooner an attorney reviews your case, the more options you will have. Call 678-327-9066.
