Alien Smuggling

According to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, transporting illegal aliens into and around the country are some of the fastest growing businesses on the international level. Illegal immigration has been at the forefront of recent political debates and the Department of Justice is actively working to arrest individuals who are smuggling aliens into the United States. Alien smuggling crimes such as transporting aliens, trafficking in human life or aiding and abetting the illegal entry of a foreigner can carry severe penalties with the possibility of many years in prison. In addition to facing a prison sentence, if you are a foreign national and are convicted of one of these crimes, your citizenship in the United States may be affected. If you, or someone you know, is charged with a human trafficking crime, it is important you immediately contact a criminal defense lawyer with experience in federal court and knowledge of U.S. immigration laws.
