Deportation Defenders & Habeas Corpus Attorneys

At Burt & Ngo, P.C., our practice is dedicated to deportation defense and removal defense in Immigration Court. We represent individuals and families who are facing deportation, removal proceedings, ICE detention, and enforcement actions by the Department of Homeland Security. Our firm focuses on protecting noncitizens from being removed from the United States and fighting deportation at every stage of the immigration court process.

Led by attorneys John Burt and Uyen Ngo, with immigration specialist Kim Raja, our team concentrates on defending clients in Immigration Court against deportation, including Master Calendar Hearings, Individual Hearings, and post-order relief. We handle motions to reopen deportation cases, motions to reconsider removal orders, stays of removal, ICE custody issues, bond hearings, and relief from deportation, including cancellation of removal, adjustment of status, asylum-based defenses, and family-based immigration options when available.

We regularly represent clients who have final orders of deportation, prior removal orders, missed court hearings, or years-old immigration cases that place them at risk of ICE arrest or detention. We also defend individuals currently detained by ICE, working quickly to pursue bond, release, or court-based relief to stop deportation and reunite families.

Our deportation defense practice is built around one mission: keeping our clients in the United States and preventing removal whenever the law allows. Immigration law and ICE enforcement change constantly, and deportation cases move fast. We provide clear, honest legal guidance, aggressive court representation, and focused defense strategies for people whose future in the U.S. is on the line.

If you or a loved one is facing deportation, removal proceedings, or ICE detention, Burt & Ngo, P.C. is committed to standing between you and deportation and fighting for your right to remain in the United States.

We also handle federal habeas corpus petitions for people held in ICE detention when the government is keeping someone locked up unlawfully or for an unreasonably long time without meaningful review. A habeas petition asks a federal judge to step in and examine ICE’s authority to detain, and in the right case it can force a bond hearing or secure release when immigration court options are delayed or unavailable. When detention is dragging on, a loved one’s health is at risk, or ICE refuses to release someone who should be released, we move quickly to pursue federal court relief aimed at getting our client home.

Javier R., Houston, TX

"I came to the U.S. running from cartel violence in Michoacán. I was scared, confused, and didn’t know where to turn. Burt & Ngo took my case seriously. They helped me apply for asylum, gathered all my evidence, and prepared me for my interview. Thanks to them, I was granted asylum and can finally sleep without fear. They didn’t just defend me — they believed in me."

María G., Los Angeles, CA

"I never thought I could live without fear. For years, I stayed silent because I believed I had no rights — I was undocumented, and my husband controlled everything. When I found Burt & Ngo, they listened to me like I mattered. They helped me apply for VAWA and walked me through every step. Now I have my work permit, my green card, and most importantly, my freedom. I’ll be forever grateful to them for changing my life."
