Post-Conviction Relief: “If I Could Turn Back Time!”
September 8, 2022
Web Seminar
Immigration attorneys may sometimes feel like post-conviction relief is outside their wheelhouse. However, post-conviction relief is a crucial tool for clients with less-than-perfect pasts. Even if attorneys do not practice criminal law, staying abreast of the latest developments with respect to vacaturs and sentence modifications is required to comprehensively advise clients regarding their immigration options. During this intermediate-to-advanced seminar, our panel of experts will discuss various types of post-conviction relief vehicles, trends in DHS challenges to vacaturs and sentence modifications, and other important strategy considerations when counseling clients on post-conviction relief.
