A defense immigration lawyer can help stop deportation. They work to prove that the person has the right to stay in the country. Some common ways to defend someone from deportation include:
1. Asylum
If someone is afraid to go back to their country because of war, violence, or threats, they can ask for asylum.
2. Family Ties
If someone has family in the country (like a spouse or child who is a citizen), they may be able to stay.
3. Long-Time Residence
If someone has lived in the country for many years and has been a good person, they might qualify to stay.
4. Being a Victim of a Crime
Some people who were victims of crimes (like abuse or trafficking) may qualify for special visas that let them stay.
