How do I challenge an ICE Warrant?

If you or a loved one is the subject of an ICE warrant in Washington, you may need to challenge or defend against the warrant in order to protect your rights. The first step is to contact a qualified immigration attorney. An experienced attorney can help you understand the circumstances behind the warrant, as well as review all legal documents related to it. They can also assist you in formulating the best defense strategy to challenge the warrant. If the warrant was issued unlawfully or based on false or inaccurate information, your attorney can file a motion to quash or challenge the warrant. This motion must be filed with the court that issued the warrant. In the motion, your attorney will be able to argument why the warrant should be vacated. The court may order ICE to hold a hearing in order to determine the validity of the warrant. During this hearing, the court will weigh both sides of the argument and determine if the warrant should be quashed or not. In addition, your attorney can also challenge the warrant by seeking a stay of removal. This is a legal action that requests the court to suspend the execution of the warrant and prevent the individual from being sent back to their home country. Your attorney can also request a bond hearing where the court will determine whether or not the person should be released on bond. A qualified attorney can help you navigate the legal process and provide the best defense strategy to challenge an ICE warrant. If you or a loved one is subject to an ICE warrant in Washington, do not hesitate to seek legal counsel.
