Practice Manual for Pro Bono Attorneys Representing Detained Clients with Mental Disabilities in Immigration Court

443.5 KiB with 3,123 hits, posted May 21, 2009

This Practice Manual is designed to help attorneys represent aliens who have mental health issues throughout the immigration detention and removal (deportation) process. The inherent complexity of the immigration legal process and stress of detention presents problems to all detained aliens, but especially to those with mental health issues. As this Practice Manual is designed as a practical guide for attorneys to navigate the labyrinthine immigration system, it is not exhaustive. Particularly on specific legal points, we urge practitioners to consult experience immigration attorneys and the supplemental materials referenced throughout the manual.
