With the rise of ICE in recent months, there has been a surge in wrongful detention claims, which has caused severe worry and various challenges for immigrants and their families. U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has been refusing to believe many immigrants who are under protected status in the United States.
Wrongful detention arrests result in harm for immigrants and their families. Officials are separating individuals from their loved ones without notice, causing severe distress and worry. Immigrants fleeing persecution in their homelands face even greater hardships when they arrive in the United States. Reports indicate that authorities often label many arrests as ‘collateral’ arrests, made without warrants or probable cause.
Additionally, it has been reported that many detention officers have made mistakes and arrested U.S. citizens and immigrants who have legitimate legal status in the United States. Moreover, arrests in immigration are challenging to identify and correct.
The government has added $29.9 billion to ICE’s enforcement and deportation operations, ultimately increasing the agency’s annual budget. There’s also $45 billion allocated for the construction of new immigration detention centers.
This increase in funding is bringing more power to deportation officers, causing great fear and worry amongst immigrants and their families.
The government does not provide attorneys for those facing deportation and requires them to find their own legal assistance. As many individuals fight the battle alone, an immigration attorney should assist them, as immigration law is complex and requires years of experience and expertise. Studies show the following statistics:
Ultimately, legal representation is often the deciding factor in whether an individual receives justice and compensation.
