Removal Defense for Texas Residents

Texas has one of the highest numbers of immigration court cases in the nation, and removal proceedings can be incredibly stressful. At Cruz Torres Legal Services, we provide strategic and compassionate Removal Defense. Whether you’re eligible for asylum, cancellation of removal, or another form of relief, we will build a personalized plan and advocate fiercely on your behalf. Our goal is to help you remain with your loved ones and secure your future in the U.S.

Appeals, Reopens, and Post-Removal Relief

If your immigration case was denied or a removal order has been issued, our team is ready to step in. We file Appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) and Motions to Reopen or Reconsider based on new evidence, legal errors, or changes in your circumstances. Even after deportation, we may be able to help with Post-Removal Order filings. We exhaust every legal avenue to give our clients a second chance.

FOIA Requests for Accurate Case Files

To properly defend your case, you need access to your full immigration history. We submit targeted FOIA (Freedom of Information Act) requests to retrieve vital records from government agencies. Whether you need past applications, enforcement records, or transcripts, we make sure your case is built on complete and accurate documentation.

Voluntary Departure Options

Voluntary Departure can sometimes be a strategic choice in lieu of forced removal. It may protect your eligibility for future immigration benefits and allow you to depart the U.S. with dignity. Our firm will help you determine if this option fits your situation, and we’ll guide you through the legal steps and deadlines involved.

Guidance Through Credible Fear Interviews

For those seeking asylum, the Credible Fear Interview is often the first and most critical step. We work with clients to prepare detailed, truthful accounts of their fears and experiences, ensuring they understand the process and how to present their story clearly. Our preparation can make the difference in gaining the opportunity to apply for asylum.

TPS Applications and Renewals

Temporary Protected Status (TPS) provides lawful presence and work authorization for individuals from designated countries. We assist Texas residents with initial TPS Applications, renewals, and changes in status. We also help clients understand how TPS interacts with other immigration benefits or pending proceedings.

ICE Detention Defense in Texas

Texas is home to several ICE detention facilities. If a loved one has been detained, Cruz Torres Legal Services provides fast, experienced legal intervention. We represent clients in bond hearings and advocate for release and relief from removal. We understand the urgency and handle detention cases with care and persistence.
