Frequently asked

Frequently asked questions

Edited and reviewed by our editorial team. Answers are general information — not legal advice.

What does deportation defense usually cost?

Removal-defense retainers often range from $3,000-$20,000 depending on detention, relief type, hearing count, and appeals. Bond-only work is usually lower than asylum, cancellation of removal, or detained merits hearings.

Does immigration court provide a public defender?

Removal proceedings are civil, so a public defender is not automatically appointed. Legal-aid nonprofits, law-school clinics, and BIA-accredited representatives may help if the case and household income qualify.

What makes a deportation case more expensive?

Detention, multiple hearings, asylum or cancellation evidence, expert declarations, interpreters, and BIA or circuit appeals can raise the fee. The calculator separates bond, hearing, relief, and appeal inputs so you can compare quotes.
