Expanded deportation defense services

By immigrationprof

The International Institute of the East Bay in Oakland, California, has been in the process of developing a Deportation Defense project to respond to the crisis in the immigrant community caused by widespread deportations. As a first step in this program, In April 2005, IIEB launched a pilot Deportation clinic to offer free one-time legal consulations on deportation issues. Starting Oct. 1, 2005, IIEB expanded its services to also start accepting a liminited number of legal cases for low-cost representation at Immigration Court.

IIEB continues to offer free legal consulations to all immigrants who are currently in deportation proceedings. For more information see www.iieb.org
