Re: immigration

you will need to satisfy a judge that the marriage was entered into in good faith and that the relationship just did not work out. I would definitely get a lawyer. you should have probably gotten one to file your I-751 because there would have been ways to avoid your case getting into the courts like this.

Re: immigration

I recommend you obtain the services of a lawyer who specializes in deportation (now removal) proceedings. Normally, judges here in the Immigration Court in L.A. won't even allow you to go forward if you show up the first time without a lawyer, but will give you a short continuance to obtain one. Removal proceedings are serious and like a criminal trial in many ways so you will be deported (removed) if you do not know what you are doing.

The issue in the removal proceedings is to see if you have any type of relief entitling you to remain in the U.S. as a permanent resident, perhaps a waiver of the I-751 requirement in your case. The lawyer would have to advise you on that. Be mindful that if there is no relief, the judge will enter an order of removal against you. You're welcome to contact our office since we are in court in removal proceedings almost every day of each week.
