The
Criminal Lawyer's Guide to Immigration Law: Questions and Answers, Third
Edition is the first place to turn for answers to common
questions about immigration law and the representation of noncitizens.
Organized in a convenient question-and-answer format, this concise guide
addresses the issues criminal lawyers are most likely to encounter, from
"Who exactly is an alien?" to "Are removal hearings conducted
like criminal proceedings?" Clear, focused answers provide practical
guidance and, in most instances, direct readers to specific cases and more
in-depth resources for further research.
Covering topics
ranging from the fundamentals of immigration law to guidance for specific
situations, this practical reference addresses immigration court and
procedures, the immigration consequences of criminal convictions,
extradition, and prisoner issues. It provides criminal lawyers with a useful
resource for navigating the real-world immigration issues that arise when
representing noncitizen clients or working with noncitizen
witnesses.
