Trial Skills for Immigration Court: A Practical Guide to Effective Strategies and Tactics

From the publisher, The American Immigration Lawyers Association:

“Cases heard in immigration courts often have life-altering consequences for the respondents in removal proceedings. Many of the basic procedures we take for granted in the American court system are absent in immigration court. While litigants are entitled to due process, immigration judges are given broad leeway in how to conduct hearings, and practitioners must be both knowledgeable and flexible to successfully practice in such a setting.

The first edition of Trial Skills for Immigration Court offers detailed guidance and practical tips on how to present a client’s case. Authors Michelle Méndez and Victoria Neilson teach fundamental court advocacy skills to help practitioners prepare systematically for what they can expect to face in immigration court proceedings.”
