Litigation and Advocacy
Advocacy through Groundbreaking Litigation
In these difficult times of attacks on our immigrant communities, ImmDef launched the Litigation and Advocacy Program in 2019 with the goal of expanding our appellate advocacy and dismantle the system that seeks to deport our clients.
Issues of particular concern that ImmDef is focused on include access to counsel; detention conditions; prolonged detention; violation of rights of unaccompanied minors; cruel and inhumane treatment of immigrants in the Migrant Persecution Protocols Program and system violation of due process rights.
