Criminal representations of aliens

Criminal activity by someone who is not a United States citizen can result in harsh immigration consequences.   Many times, a non-citizen criminal defendant is offered an “easy” plea. These can include probation, time-served, short-term incarceration, or a fine.  Such offers are deceptively attractive. It may never occur to a criminal defendant that the quick way out may be the biggest mistake he or she ever makes.

 

Even the most seasoned and experienced criminal defense attorneys struggle with determining the immigration consequences of criminal behavior.  Even if deportability is avoided, a particular plea could result in a defendant not being eligible for citizenship.
