Removal proceedings begin when the US government believes someone has violated immigration law — overstaying a visa, entering without inspection, or certain criminal convictions. Once a Notice to Appear is issued, the individual must appear before an immigration judge. The outcome determines whether a person stays in the United States or is forced to leave.
Attorney Genova fights relentlessly to protect her clients’ right to remain in the United States and keep their families together.
We review your Notice to Appear, identify all deadlines, and determine your defense options immediately.

You may be able to file a Motion to Reopen your case. This is highly time-sensitive — contact us immediately to review your options before any deadline passes.
Cancellation of Removal requires: (1) 10 years of continuous physical presence, (2) good moral character during that period, and (3) a US citizen or LPR family member who would suffer “exceptional and extremely unusual hardship.” Gergana will evaluate your eligibility in a consultation.
Having U.S. citizen children can be an important factor, but it does not automatically guarantee that deportation will be stopped. Attorney Genova will evaluate whether your children meet the ‘exceptional hardship’ requirement under the law.
The immigration judge may issue an in absentia removal order, meaning you can be ordered removed without being present. Contact us immediately if this has happened — there may still be options depending on the circumstances.
