Alien Smuggling Defense Lawyer – California

Alien smuggling is the illegal transportation of individuals across international borders. It involves bringing individuals into a country without following the proper legal protocols and/or documents. Smugglers often use false documents or take advantage of vulnerable individuals who do not know how to use the country’s legal system to enter or remain in a country. Alien smuggling often results in exploitation and abuse of people being smuggled and can have a significant impact on international relations and security.

Alien smuggling is defined as intentionally helping people enter the United States illegally. Aside from physically transporting illegal aliens, this crime also includes covering the financial cost of transportation and or even encouraging aliens to pursue illegal border crossing.

To qualify as a smuggler, the person assisting with the illegal entry must be aware of the person’s status as an illegal alien. If someone is merely aware of illegal entry but not assisting, however, that person isn’t considered a smuggler.

Types of Alien Smuggling

Federal law against smuggling includes other types of behavior besides physical transport. They include a broad range of activities, such as harboring an undocumented alien in your home or vehicle, knowingly hiring an illegal alien, or even encouraging someone to enter the country illegally.

Conspiring to commit any of the above federal crimes is also included under the definition of smuggling. People illegally smuggling aliens will also be held responsible if anyone involved was seriously injured or put into a life-threatening situation.

Breaking federal immigration law is a serious concern that requires assistance from an experienced defense lawyer. For more information on the topic, you can contact an alien smuggling statute attorney in California.

Alien Smuggling Charges California

LibertyBell Law’s drug crimes defense attorneys have prepared and strategically presented defense tactics that require precision and style in court. In some situations, disputing the testimony, evidence, and alleged facts in a criminal defense may make sense.

In other circumstances, it will be more prudent for the defense to concentrate on procedural flaws, such as a breach of a defendant’s right to be free from search and seizure. “I didn’t do it,” is the most popular defense to any criminal allegation. In some cases, it’s evident that the drugs in question belong to someone else, so if you say you didn’t “do it,” you’re implying that the drugs in question belong to someone else.

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY:

Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub.

    

I hired Gina and her team for my son who was facing 10 years for something they said he did when he was 17 years old. Gina was like a lioness protecting her cub. She did not stop. She fought hard and was able to defend the charges. We are so grateful to her and her team. They gave us our son. He recovered his life!

Best defense lawyers in the country.

    

I hired this law firm in 2014 for my son who was facing 16 years in prison for a felony robbery. Lina Helou answered all our questions. I was extremely distraught regarding what my son was facing but Lina comforted me and told me that it would be okay. And thank goodness LibertyBell saved my son from going to jail and they were able to obtain only 3 years of probation. I could not have hired a better law firm for my son and if you want the best defense call LibertyBell Law Group. Thank God for this great group of lawyers.

– V. J.
A great team of lawyers.

    

I do not have enough words to describe how incredible the experience with this firm was. They work very hard to make sure you have winning results. I could not have asked for better service from the moment I called, until my case was over. I was glad I made the right choice. Thank you again LibertyBell Law Group!

She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence.

    

My father had found this group through his company and coworkers. I was assigned Gina Tennen and I cannot explain in just a review on how gratefull I am to be working with her. My case was an accusation of unlawful sex. This had looked extremely bad on my part since I was in a fraternity and she was in a sorority. During these times with Greek life, there are too many bad stigmas surrounding these organizations. Gina had believed in me and knew that I was innocent and that these accusations just were not true. She took her time to review all of my evidence and proved my innocence. I totally recommend this law group because they are willing to put in the work to help your situation.

Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding.

    

When I first heard I was under a criminal investigation, I initially thought I would try and resolve this in the best way possible, without legal representation, as we were all interested in a "just" outcome. I quickly discovered that was not the case and contacted Gina at LibertyBell. She clearly described the expectations and the choices available to me. She was always available to me, and when I called, if she couldn't talk with me at that time, she would quickly get back to me. Gina always kept me fully aware of how the case was proceeding. Her fee's were stipulated up front, as well as what those fees covered and what they did not.

Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one.

    

Attorney Gina Tennen was on point from day one putting pressure on the sherrif's office to get things handled. With Child molestation accusatinos being thrown around Gina and Attorney Castro were great at keeping the pressure on and had no charges filled. The DCFS indications were appealed and we won with flying colors. Great service, great work, and will use again for all legal matters.

Will Recommend, Total Experience, Awesome Team

    

Being involved in legal matters can be scary. When researching who to put my trust in, I came across Liberty and I am glad that I did. From the first time that I met with Gina and her team she made me feel comfortable and listened to all that I had to say. She assured me that her team would be on it and that they would do everything that they could! A little while in, Alan took over my case. When meeting with him you can tell that this is his passion and I immediately knew he was going to do everything in his power to make the outcome right! He was relentless and worked day and night working on the case. He kept in constant communication with me and truly cared not only about me but about my family as well. I am forever grateful for the support that this whole team has given me and would definitely recommend them to anyone who is looking for truly the best lawyers!
