Legal Help for Immigrants Facing Criminal Charges
If you are in the U.S. illegally, you are facing deportation in any criminal case. What many people do not know, however, is that even if you are a LEGAL resident of the U.S. and all of your immigration paperwork is in order, you could face deportation if you plead guilty to or are convicted of certain crimes.
If you are an immigrant of any kind, DO NOT plead guilty to a crime. Talk with a criminal defense lawyer at Greg Smith and Associates before you do anything else. Call 801-924-4934 or toll free 888-708-8867.
Our defense lawyers protect the rights of adults and juveniles accused of crimes in Salt Lake City, Provo, Orem, Park City and surrounding communities in Utah. Contact our Salt Lake City criminal defense attorneys online.
What Criminal Conviction Can Result in Deportation?
If you are convicted of a crime of "moral turpitude" or an aggravated felony you can be deported from the U.S. Examples of these types of crime include actions that one might have used to gain entrance to the country illegally or to work illegally:
- Fraud
- Social Security fraud or theft
- Document fraud
- Identity theft
- Counterfeiting
- Forgery
But many other crimes will also get you deported, such as:
- Domestic violence
- Obstruction of justice
- Perjury
- Theft, embezzlement
- Drug dealing, drug smuggling
