When facing criminal charges as an immigrant, it
is important to know and understand your rights. In addition a to
possible criminal conviction, you may be at risk of deportation.
Through
ignorance of their rights and as a means to immediately gett out of
jail, many immigrants agree to plea bargains that have devastating
effects on their ability to stay in the United States with their
families.
Immigration Bonds
The Frager Law Firm helps immigrant clients
post immigration bonds for jail release. Reuniting with your family
while
legal actions are pending allows you to deal with your criminal case
and still financially provide for your families needs.
Immigration bail bonds are cash bonds paid
directly to Immigration
and Customs Enforcement (ICE) or the Immigration Court. Such
bonds guarantee appearance at Immigration Court proceedings and
compliance with Department
of Homeland Security (DHS) obligations. Unless the immigrant
fails to meet DHS obligations, once deportation or removal proceedings
are over, the bond money is returned to the party securing the cash
bond.
Habeas Corpus
A writ of habeas corpus petitions courts to
determine whether unlawful detainment occurred. U.S. constitutional law
provides people in the United States with freedom from unlawful
imprisonment. Through the use of habeas corpus, our lawyers provide
strong advocacy for immigrants in the criminal justice system.
Emergency

The Frager Law Firm maintains a 24-hour answering service so staff
members can be located and given the opportunity to assist you. If you,
a relative, or someone close to you has been arrested during evening or

away. Tell
the operator you will wait on the line until a staff member is located.
We do our best to provide immediate legal help at the time of the
emergency, whether during regular office hours or evenings and
weekends. Our legal professionals can determine whether bail bond
release and habeas corpus are options.
