Understanding Inadmissible & Deportable Crimes
Inadmissible and deportable crimes refer to specific criminal convictions that can result in the loss of an immigrant's ability to re-enter the country after departure, become a U.S. citizen, or apply for permanent residence or an adjustment of status. For immigrants, criminal matters are particularly complex since accepting a plea deal to reduce charges can still jeopardize their immigration status.
The following crimes can render an immigrant inadmissible or deportable:
- Drug crimes
- Firearm offenses
- Domestic violence
- Aggravated felonies
- Crimes of moral turpitude
Avoiding Deportation with a Felony
If you are facing deportation due to a felony conviction, seeking guidance from a qualified and experienced criminal immigration attorney in Newark is crucial. At Murray Osorio PLLC, we understand the stress and overwhelming nature of this situation, and we are here to provide you with the necessary support. Understanding your legal options is an essential initial step to avoid deportation with a felony.
Depending on the crime's nature and your individual circumstances, several avenues may be available, such as applying for a waiver of inadmissibility, cancellation of removal, or other forms of relief if you hold a green card or visa. Time is of the utmost importance in these cases, as the immigration system can move swiftly. Taking prompt action is crucial, and our criminal immigration lawyers are available to assess your situation and discuss the legal options.
How Our Criminal Immigration Lawyer Can Help You
We can assist you by:
- Comprehensive Case Evaluation: We begin by executing a thorough evaluation of your case, examining the details of the criminal charges, your immigration history, and any prior convictions. This comprehensive assessment allows us to identify potential risks and develop a tailored legal strategy to address both the criminal and immigration elements of your case.
- Strategic Defense Planning: Based on our evaluation, we developed a strategic defense plan designed to minimize the effect of the criminal charges on your immigration status. Our goal is to achieve the best possible outcome, whether through dismissal of charges, plea negotiations, or other legal avenues. We work closely with criminal defense attorneys when necessary to ensure that your defense considers all potential immigration consequences.
- Post-Conviction Relief Assistance: If you have already been convicted of a crime, our attorney can explore options for post-conviction relief. We will review the circumstances of your conviction to determine if there are grounds for vacating the conviction, obtaining a pardon, or pursuing expungement. We focus on mitigating the long-term impact of a criminal record on your ability to remain in the United States.
- Aggressive Removal Defense: If you face removal proceedings, we provide aggressive defense strategies to challenge the government's case and seek relief options. We are experienced in representing clients before immigration courts, advocating tirelessly for your right to stay in the country. We will explore all possible defenses and relief options, including cancellation of removal, asylum, and waivers of inadmissibility.
- Personalized Legal Support: Throughout the process, we offer personalized legal support to ensure that you understand your rights and options. We keep you informed at every stage of your case, providing clear and honest communication. We are committed to standing by your side, fighting for your rights, and helping you navigate the complexities of criminal immigration law.

Additional Legal Remedies Available for Immigrants Facing Deportation
At Murray Osorio PLLC, we recognize that each immigration case is unique, and we strive to explore all available avenues to prevent deportation. In addition to the common forms of relief, such as waivers of inadmissibility or cancellation of removal, there may be other legal remedies available depending on the circumstances of your case:
U Visa for Crime Victims: If you have been the victim of certain crimes, including domestic violence or trafficking, you may be eligible for a U visa, which allows you to remain in the U.S. while assisting law enforcement with investigations or prosecutions.
T Visa for Human Trafficking Victims: Immigrants who have been victims of human trafficking may qualify for a T visa, allowing them to stay in the country and potentially apply for permanent residency.
Adjustment of Status: In some cases, immigrants who are in removal proceedings may still be eligible to adjust their status to lawful permanent residency if they qualify for an exemption or other immigration benefits.
