Navigating the New Landscape: Mandatory Detention and Immigration Enforcement
Date & Time: May 1, 2025 | 12:00 PM – 1:00 PM ET | Via Zoom
Description:
The recently enacted Laken Riley Act has introduced a new mandatory detention provision in immigration law, creating significant challenges for non-citizens and the attorneys who represent them. Just weeks into the new administration, immigration enforcement was significantly reshaped, making it critical for criminal defense attorneys to understand the evolving landscape.
In this one-hour webinar, Tracey Hubbard will provide practical guidance on how to protect your non-citizen clients in light of these changes. Topics will include:
- Key shifts in immigration enforcement since January 2025 and emerging trends under the Trump administration
- Essential documents non-citizens should carry at all times
- Best practices for attorneys when ICE arrests a client in court—or anywhere else
- Understanding the documentation ICE agents must have when detaining individuals
With immigration enforcement ramping up, criminal defense attorneys must be prepared to advise their clients effectively. Don’t miss this timely and essential discussion.
