While an asylum case allows you to remain in the United States under legal protection, that protection is not unlimited. With recent changes in immigration policies, even individuals with no criminal history and a pending asylum case could, in very specific situations such as an immigration raid, be detained and processed by immigration authorities. This is not common, but it is important to understand the potential risk and what could happen. The good news is that, in most cases, if the person has no criminal record and entered the country legally, there are options such as bond or a custody redetermination that may allow them to continue their process while remaining free. Every immigration situation is different. If you have an asylum case, are facing an immigration process, or have questions about bond or immigration court, we invite you to contact our office to receive legal assistance and protect your rights.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many people believe that being in an asylum process means they have absolute protection, but the reality is more complex.
