2018 Removal Defense Conference and Webcast
Fierce and Fearless Lawyering: Taking It to the Next Level

A joint venture between AILA, the AILA/Council Immigration Justice Campaign, and the National Immigration Project

The past year has presented unprecedented challenges for immigration lawyers and advocates who seek to defend the rights of noncitizens before the courts and administrative agencies. This conference offers practitioners effective and aggressive strategies to employ in immigration court as a means of fighting back against the increasingly hostile treatment of respondents in removal proceedings. Speakers will provide both substantive case law and practical advice for fearlessly advocating on behalf of your clients and laying the groundwork for success.


Viewing Options

On Thursday, April 12, 2018, faculty members will present a full day of live sessions. These sessions can be attended in-person at the Washington Court Hotel on Capitol Hill (space is limited) or via webcast from the convenience of home or the office. Either way, the program is live and interactive! All participants will be given a link to the conference recording, so any sessions missed (particularly helpful for our West Coast participants given the time difference) or in need of review can be revisited back at the office. Attending AILA's 2018 National Day of Action instead? Purchase the conference recordings so you won't miss a second of the action!
