Show Trials: The Immigration Court System & Potential Reform

In this CLE program, The Knowledge Group presents immigration associates Vandana Ruda and Rebekah Kim to discuss the most significant developments and critical issues surrounding business immigration policies and regulations. The distinguished speakers will also highlight the best compliance amid the shifting regulatory paradigm.

This program includes a discussion of the ethics involved in disqualification motions and the standards by which motions can and should be brought, and should not be brought, along with the governing patchwork regimes of ethics standards to regulate attorney conduct that apply.

Arguing appeals is its own art, and arguing immigration appeals adds a level of complexity. Peter Afrasiabi has litigated well over 100 immigration appeals, and uses that experience and his advocacy teaching experience, to give you a nuts-and-bolts program here on how to prepare to argue your immigration appeal. With real world examples and a specific multi-step process to employ, this program will arm you to be present the best appellate argument possible in the context of the highly politicized immigration arena.

This program then looks at the arguments on each side of whether the law’s provisions for presidential power to quell invasions can be used to arrest and deport certain immigrant groups.
