What Are Removal Proceedings?
Removal proceedings are legal processes that the United States government uses to determine whether non-citizens should be removed (deported) from the country. During proceedings, you can expect government officials to make a case for your removal. You can defend yourself by seeking relief via asylum, adjustment of status, cancellation of removal, and more. You are entitled to hire an attorney to represent you during removal proceedings.
Common Reasons for Removal
You could receive a “Notice to Appear” in removal proceedings for several reasons, including:
- Violating the terms of your visa
- Committing criminal acts while in the US
- Entering the US without authorization or the right documentation
- Failing to adhere to immigration laws
Regardless of the reasons you received an NTA, the first thing you should do is contact a lawyer. Acting promptly gives you and your lawyer more time to strategize and pursue a viable defense option.

Local Immigration Bond Lawyer
An immigration bond is money that a person ICE has detained pays for release until their court hearing. ICE will allow some to pay bond and be released but deny the privilege to most. The reason is that they typically only have negative evidence, such as an arrest report and immigration violations. Here is where our attorneys at the Law Office of Karen Winston can help.
Our team can:
- Prepare and submit bond packages to ICE that showcase your loved one’s good qualities and demonstrate why they should be released on bond
- Make a request for bond to an immigration judge if ICE denies the initial package
- Represent your loved one in a bond hearing
- Negotiate for lower bond if the amount is too high
