Habeas Relief

Associate Attorney Veronica Franco Salazar secured the release of a Cuban national from immigration detention after successfully obtaining federal habeas relief, despite two previously denied habeas petitions and a final order of removal entered while the client remained detained. By identifying critical legal deficiencies in prior filings and presenting new arguments to the federal court, Veronica obtained an order requiring the client’s release within 48 hours, allowing her to remain with her family while pursuing her pending immigration appeal and relief under the Cuban Adjustment Act.
