Law Office of Michael J. McCarroll

Immigration & Criminal Defense Lawyer

Our immigration practice has helped hundreds of individuals facing deportation in detention centers throughout the country. We routinely represent immigrants in Colorado - and throughout the world - dealing with US consulates abroad and those with visa and citizenship applications pending with the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services ("USCIS"). A large portion of our practice is dedicated to asylum and protecting the right of refugees to remain in the US. We also handle immigration appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, the Administrative Appeals Office and the US Court of Appeals.

Whether you are facing deportation or hoping to build a better life for your family in the United States, we can help you achieve your dreams. Specifically, we can:
File applications for citizenship, green cards and visas
Interpret criminal laws and their effect on immigration status
Appear in court for necessary proceedings

Immigration and criminal issues are often interrelated

A criminal charge or conviction can prevent you from entering or remaining in the United States. Therefore, it is critical that you hire a lawyer who possesses a deep understanding of the connection between these two ares of law.

Our criminal defense practice represents those accused of misdemeanor and felony crimes, including drug trafficking, domestic violence, DUI and other offenses. We are particularly suited to represent defendants who are immigrants, helping to insulate them from the potential negative immigration consequences of a criminal case. To that end, we are available for consultation with criminal defense lawyers regarding the propriety of plea agreements.
