Recent ICE Arrests in Los Angeles: How Lawyers Can Help Detainees

📌 Why Are People Being Detained by ICE?

In recent weeks, multiple cases in Los Angeles have drawn public attention: lawful permanent residents (green card holders), and even individuals who had already passed their U.S. naturalization exams, were unexpectedly detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) during appointments or before their oath ceremonies.

Many assume that only undocumented immigrants or those with criminal records face ICE detention. In reality, detentions can happen due to:

  • Old, unresolved immigration cases resurfacing during background checks
  • Past visa overstays or prior removal orders
  • Administrative errors or procedural issues in immigration applications

This means that even lawful residents may suddenly find themselves detained by ICE.

🏛️ How Can an Immigration Lawyer Help?

When facing ICE detention, time is critical. An experienced immigration lawyer can immediately intervene to protect the detainee’s rights:

1️⃣ Bond Hearings

Lawyers can request a Bond Hearing before an immigration judge to seek release from detention and reunite families as quickly as possible.

2️⃣ Court Representation

If the case proceeds to Immigration Court, attorneys can:

  • Represent clients in hearings
  • Prepare strong evidence and legal filings
  • Defend against removal and protect legal rights

3️⃣ Immigration Appeals

If an initial decision is unfavorable, a lawyer can file an appeal to prevent immediate deportation and pursue additional legal remedies.

4️⃣ Immigration Relief Applications

Depending on the case, lawyers may assist with:

  • Asylum claims
  • U visas / T visas (for certain victims of crimes or trafficking)
  • Stay of Removal requests
  • Other forms of immigration relief and protection
