Bond Hearings

Is Someone You Know in Immigration Detention in Arizona?

It can be a very confusing and frightening time when the immigration authorities detain someone they think is an illegal immigrant. Penalosa & Associates, P.C., shares your goal of getting your family member or loved one out of immigration detention as quickly as possible.

We have handled hundreds of immigration cases over the last almost 20 years. Bond hearings are your chance to request an affordable fee to get out of the detention center. A bond is money paid to the court as a promise that you will return for your hearing on a later date. Our attorney will meet you at the detention center, will be at the hearing with you and will argue for an affordable bond for your release or for the release of your friend or relative.

What Our Law Firm Offers You

Careful preparation and close personal attention means that we will be at your side throughout your case. Our lawyer, Jose Luis Penalosa, is fluent in Spanish. Although hearings will be conducted in English, Attorney Penalosa can explain everything that happens in Spanish as well as answer all of your questions. If you are confused about the process or do not understand what is happening, he will help.

Preparation

A well-prepared case is more likely to succeed because the judge requires a lot of information before setting a bond. We know what they look for and how to present it.

We work with you and your loved one to build up a picture of a reliable and moral person who is not a flight risk and has stable financial support. We look at assets and property, history in the United States and in the community, family ties, prior criminal record (if any), job, immigration status and the affect their detention has on their family to show that the person detained will return for a hearing if released.

Personal Treatment

Our attorney gives your case his personal attention from start to finish. Your case will not be passed between attorneys or clerks. We visit you, your friend or relative in the detention center to review the case.

We want you to know what is likely to happen at the hearing and what you need to do and say. On the day of the hearing, our lawyer will be at the bond hearing.

Knowledge and Experience

In nearly two decades of practicing immigration law, we have learned the Arizona system for working with detainees and people accused of being an illegal immigrant.

We understand how to build a successful case for a bond hearing so that you or your loved one can be free.
