How to Stop Deportation

Waivers

Many aspects of immigration law give immigration judges discretion to allow an individual to remain in the U.S. even if they have done something that would ordinarily subject them to deportation. The knowledgeable team at American Dream^® Law Office can determine whether it would make sense to apply for one or more waivers to stop deportation in your case.

Your attorney might be able to persuade the judge that you deserve a waiver because of reasons such as:

• You are victim of a crime
• Any wrongdoing you committed was not serious and you have not committed any other offenses
• Your removal would cause extreme hardship to qualifying relatives
• Any wrongdoing you committed was a long time ago and you have demonstrated good moral character

The requirements for waivers can be quite specific, so it is important to understand how to prove that a particular waiver is justified under the circumstances.
