Re: immigration hold

This matter is complex and you should not try to do it yourself so you should get an attorney to discuss your options. If you are located in Southern California, you can email me your contact info, so we can discuss your particular situation. There is no charge for consultation.

Good Afternoon:

I would need to know what you mean by hold. Is he being detained at an immigration detention center or jail? Is he here illegally, a permanent resident or a citizen? If he is at an immigration detention center, you may be able to post bond for him.

If you'd like, please contact me to discuss this further in confidence. You can email me directly at [email protected].

Re: immigration hold

Dear Inquirer:

If your boyfriend has an immigration hold, then he will not be released until USICE sets a bond for him and/or his status is resolved in removal proceedings.

I recommend that you email us at [email protected] or visit www.hanlonlawgroup.com if you would like to schedule an appointment for a confidential consultation to discuss this matter further.

Re: immigration hold

No, but you could marry and keep him here, applying for his permanent residence in court. I presume he doesn't have a prior criminal record and that no one was hurt due to his DUI.
