Legal Question in Immigration Law in New Jersey

Re: Arrested at Newark Airport

My Name is Kerry Bretz and I am a partner at Bretz & Coven, LLP, a firm concentrating in deportation defense. My guess is that he has an old criminal history and that is the basis for a removal case. Very often people are deportable for a criminal history but Immigration or ICE never knew about until the person traveled. Sometimes, they travel many times before something like this happens. The process is complicated and confusing. Waiting is never a good strategy. What I will need to know is when he first came to the US, when and how be became a lawful permanent resident, what he has in his criminal history. I will also need to know that status of his immediate family: Parents, spouse, children (citizens or residents). I accept collect calls from jail, so he is free to call me. What you need to worry about is that ICE often moves detainees from NJ, to PA to Texas. Once I know the information requested, I can give you a better idea of whether he is deportable or inadmissible and or eligible for relief from deportation, often called a waiver. Although there is a process to help people in his circumstance to be released, most often, airport cases will remain detained until they either win and get released or lose and get deported. At Bretz and Coven, we speak Spanish and many of my staff are native Dominicans. We have a lot of experience in these cases and careful planning and excelent represention are essentially to winning.
