Legal Question in Immigration Law in Texas

my boyfriend has been in trouble with the law a couple times, but this time was serious, he has a few drug charges and has been in Dallas county jail since June 2014. he took a plea bargain and is now serving a remaining 180 day sentence concurrent with back time included... what does that mean exactly? he also has a charge that says illegal alien and hold for immigration... he is a permanent resident... but does that mean that after his sentence he will be deported? we have a daughter, if he is at risk for being deported, is there ANYTHING we can do??

If your boyfriend is a permanent resident he may have relief in immigration court. You need to contact an immigration lawyer with deportation experience asap. Here's our number: 214-741-1700.

Drug convictions are extremely serious but getting crimmigration counsel for him now is the right move. If he has a green card, he might have a chance in removal court. If he doesn't, the best course of action is going to try to reopen the criminal case. Feel free to give us a call.
