Removal Defense
Facing deportation is one of the most challenging and stressful experiences an immigrant can endure. At Arora Kamal, we specialize in removal defense, providing vigorous legal representation for individuals facing deportation or removal from the U.S. Whether you’ve been placed in deportation proceedings due to visa overstays, criminal convictions, or other violations, we are here to help you fight to stay in the country.
Understanding Removal Proceedings
Removal proceedings begin when the Department of Homeland Security issues a Notice to Appear (NTA) in immigration court. During these proceedings, an immigration judge will determine whether you should be deported or allowed to remain in the U.S. It’s crucial to have an experienced attorney by your side during these hearings, as the outcome could drastically affect your future.
At Arora Kamal, we explore every available option to defend you, including:
Cancellation of removal: If you’ve been in the U.S. for a specific number of years and meet certain criteria, you may be eligible for cancellation of removal, allowing you to remain in the country.
Adjustment of status: If you’re eligible for a green card, we may be able to adjust your status and halt removal proceedings.
Asylum: If you’re facing persecution in your home country, we can help you apply for asylum as a defense to removal.
Waivers: If your removal is based on a past violation, such as a criminal conviction or visa overstay, we can pursue a waiver to cancel or delay deportation.
Fighting for Your Future
The stakes in removal defense are high, and our team is committed to building the strongest possible defense for you. We will gather evidence, prepare legal arguments, and represent you in immigration court to protect your rights and fight for your ability to stay in the U.S.
If you or a loved one is facing deportation, contact Arora Kamal immediately. We will act quickly to build your defense and provide the aggressive representation you need.
Naturalization/Citizenship
Becoming a U.S. citizen is a significant milestone, offering security, stability, and the full rights of citizenship. At Arora Kamal, we help individuals navigate the complex naturalization process, providing expert legal guidance from start to finish.
The Path to Citizenship
Naturalization is the process by which lawful permanent residents (green card holders) become U.S. citizens. To qualify for naturalization, you must meet several key requirements, including:
Being a lawful permanent resident for at least 5 years (3 years if you’re married to a U.S. citizen)
Demonstrating continuous residence and physical presence in the U.S.
Passing an English language and U.S. civics test
Showing good moral character, which typically means not having a serious criminal record
At Arora Kamal, we assist with every step of the naturalization process, ensuring that all paperwork is properly completed and submitted, and preparing you for your naturalization interview and tests.
Overcoming Challenges in the Naturalization Process
The naturalization process can be complex, and many applicants face challenges such as criminal history, issues with continuous residency, or difficulty passing the language or civics tests. Our team is here to address these challenges head-on. We can help you prepare for your interview, request exemptions for language tests if applicable, and provide solutions if you encounter any obstacles along the way.
The Benefits of U.S. Citizenship
Becoming a U.S. citizen offers numerous benefits, including the ability to vote, access federal jobs, sponsor family members for immigration, and travel with a U.S. passport. Citizenship also provides permanent security, as U.S. citizens cannot be deported or lose their legal status.
If you’re ready to take the next step toward becoming a U.S. citizen, contact Arora Kamal today. We’ll guide you through the process and help you achieve your goal of citizenship.
Family-Based Green Cards
Family reunification is one of the cornerstones of U.S. immigration policy, and at Arora Kamal, we help families stay together by assisting with family and marriage-based green card applications. Whether you are sponsoring a spouse, parent, child, or sibling, we are here to guide you through every step of the process, ensuring that your petition is handled efficiently and with the highest level of care.
Spousal Green Cards
One of the most common ways to obtain permanent residency in the U.S. is through a marriage-based green card. If you are married to a U.S. citizen or lawful permanent resident, you may be eligible to apply for a green card, allowing you to live and work in the U.S. with your spouse. We help couples navigate the often complex and document-heavy process of applying for a marriage-based green card, ensuring that all paperwork is completed correctly and that any potential obstacles are addressed.
We also assist with conditional green cards for couples who have been married for less than two years, helping you remove the conditions after two years to secure your permanent green card.
Family-Based Green Cards
In addition to spousal green cards, U.S. citizens and permanent residents can sponsor certain family members for green cards, including:
Parents
Children (unmarried under 21)
Siblings (for U.S. citizens only)
Our firm will help you file the necessary petitions, provide evidence of your relationship, and guide your family member through the interview and approval process.
Overcoming Challenges in Family-Based Immigration
We understand that family-based immigration can be complex, especially if there are issues such as prior immigration violations, criminal history, or missing documents. Our team at Arora Kamal works diligently to overcome these challenges, providing creative solutions and strong advocacy to ensure that your family members have the best chance of being approved for a green card.
Asylum, Refugee, and Humanitarian Visas
Asylum offers protection to individuals who have fled their home countries due to persecution or fear of persecution based on race, religion, nationality, political opinion, or membership in a particular social group. At Arora Kamal, we are dedicated to helping asylum seekers navigate the complex U.S. asylum process, providing compassionate legal guidance and aggressive representation to protect your rights and future.
The Asylum Process
To apply for asylum in the U.S., you must be physically present in the country or seeking entry at a port of entry. Our team assists clients with preparing and filing their Form I-589, Application for Asylum and for Withholding of Removal. We ensure that your application is comprehensive and backed by evidence of the persecution you’ve faced or fear in your home country.
Once your application is submitted, you may be required to attend an interview with an asylum officer or a hearing in immigration court. We will be by your side every step of the way, ensuring that your story is heard and advocating for the protection you deserve.

At Arora Kamal, we understand the urgency and importance of securing asylum. We handle asylum cases with care, diligence, and a deep understanding of U.S. immigration law. Contact us today to discuss your options for seeking asylum in the U.S.
Waivers
Immigration waivers can provide a pathway to overcome inadmissibility issues that may prevent an individual from entering or remaining in the U.S. At Arora Kamal, we help clients apply for waivers to resolve issues such as unlawful presence, prior immigration violations, or certain criminal convictions.
Types of Waivers
Some of the most common waivers include:
I-601 Waiver: For individuals who are inadmissible due to unlawful presence, criminal history, or fraud.
I-601A Provisional Waiver: Allows individuals to remain in the U.S. while applying for a waiver of unlawful presence.
I-212 Waiver: For individuals who have been deported or removed and wish to reenter the U.S.
