Case Results
Cancellation of Removal Granted
Client was recently placed in removal proceedings as a result of a Florida drug conviction. Attorney MacDonald coordinated with Florida counsel but all attempts to vacate this criminal conviction went nowhere. Attorney MacDonald coordinated with Attorney Ken D’Aloisio to prepare the best possible cancellation of removal defense for the client. After an extensive hearing before the Boston Immigration Court, Attorney Ken D’Aloisio successfully obtained cancellation of removal for the client. Client is now eligible to pursue U.S. citizenship.
Regardless whether you are in the country legally or illegally, immigrants have certain rights under the law. When law enforcement officers or immigration officials fail to follow proper procedures or blatantly violate the law, a deportation or removal action can be challenged before the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). At The Law Offices of John E. MacDonald, our attorneys assert and protect the rights of immigrants in deportation and removal proceedings. We have the experience and knowledge needed to challenge deportation in cases involving criminal charges, criminal convictions, and visa expirations.
Our immigration defense team can represent you in every aspect of immigration trials. Our services include:
- Deportation & removal
- Exclusion
- Bond Hearings

In a deportation case, our goal is the termination of proceedings or cancellation of removal. For clients on a visa or overstay status, our goal is the adjustment of status to that of a lawful permanent resident. We have successfully terminated deportation proceedings and received orders of cancellation at immigration courts including Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Boston, as well as throughout the United States. We have successfully helped our clients obtain lawful permanent residence or citizenship despite a visa overstay, an illegal entry or having a prior criminal record.
