Immigrants who are not yet U.S. citizens have special legal needs often requiring a criminal defense lawyer and an immigration lawyer
Immigrants who are not yet U.S. citizens have special legal needs often requiring both a criminal defense lawyer and an immigration lawyer. Fortunately, I handle both areas of law. A U.S. citizen who pleads guilty to an offense, often to a lesser charge to prevent jail time, usually pays a small fine or obtains probation and returns home relieved not to serve jail time. For undocumented immigrants and even lawful permanent residents, a guilty plea resulting in a small fine or probation could result in deportation or removal from the U.S.

Years of experience in this field.
Galen Carrico advises immigrants BEFORE they agree to a guilty plea to help avoid adverse immigration consequences. With over a decade of courtroom experience throughout Nevada, Galen works to achieve a just and fair outcome following an arrest or criminal charge. Furthermore, based on Supreme Court rulings regarding past convictions where defendants were not properly advised of their rights or immigration risks, some past convictions can be amended or dismissed.
