Do you have an emotionally compelling case but don’t know the best way to present it to the IJ? A procedurally complex issue or difficult categorical approach question? Are you new to removal defense in general? I go over the fact-pattern with you, discuss the legally relevant issues, and provide practical strategies for you to maximize your client’s chances of success. I also can review your submissions and suggest additional documents or perspectives which might enhance your submission packets.

Drafting briefs and motions is one of the most time-consuming tasks faced by an immigration attorney. Rather than spend hours or days drafting a brief or motion, an experienced, professional legal writer can free up those hours for you to complete other work while providing a thoroughly researched, persuasive submission.

I can provide trainings on specific topics as needed, or can provide more longer-term, comprehensive trainings. I can cover all aspects of removal defense, including removability and relief, trial and appellate strategies, case preparation, courtroom tactics for direct and cross, and legal writing.

While there are many qualified people providing training on immigration law and removal defense, I have a unique perspective from having been employed as an OPLA attorney, in private practice, as an immigration judge, and at the BIA.

I am also distinguished by having a strong background in and knowledge base on crimmigration and Terrorism-Related Inadmissibility Grounds.

You can contact me through the Contact page to discuss your case strategy needs, briefing support, or training goals. This initial step allows me to understand your objectives and tailor a plan that supports your litigation or training needs.
