Case Result:
Our client was charged as a result of participating in a scheme to obtain and use false US
visas by aliens seeking to obtain Florida driver's licenses. Our client was facing a maximum
sentence of ten years. We negotiated a plea agreement for our client that called for him to plead
guilty to an offense that would not be considered an aggravated felony for deportation purposes.
Our client was sentenced to one-year probation. Our client, a single father of three, and resident
alien with full-time employment, was ultimately allowed to stay in the United States. He is now a
citizen.
