Bond Hearings Attorney In Farmington, Michigan

What Are Detention And Bond Hearings?

If you or a loved one has been taken into custody by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the situation can feel frightening and uncertain. After receiving a Notice to Appear (NTA), ICE will decide whether an individual may be released or held in detention, sometimes with a bond amount that must be paid in full. For many families, these bond amounts are difficult or impossible to afford, which can result in continued detention.

What Qualifies a Detainee for a Bond Hearing?

In some cases, individuals who have never been involved in criminal activities and who may qualify for relief in removal proceedings have the option to request a review of their bond amount. Immigration judges take various critical factors into account when making custody decisions, which can significantly affect the outcome of a case. These factors include the individual’s family ties within the United States, the strength of community connections, their employment history, their ability to pay a bond, and the likelihood that they will appear for future hearings as required. Each of these elements plays an important role in the judge's consideration.


At DeMartini Williams Law, PLLC, Attorney Joseph Williams is dedicated to representing individuals during bond hearings and custody redetermination proceedings. He meticulously presents all necessary information to request a fair bond determination or to secure release.

What Happens During a Detention and Bond Hearing?

When requesting a bond redetermination, Attorney Joseph Williams will file the appropriate motion with the immigration court and prepare your case for review. The court will then schedule a bond hearing, which typically involves the judge, the government’s attorney, and legal counsel. Individuals in detention usually appear by video, while the attorneys and judge may appear in person or remotely. If you do not speak or understand English, the court will provide an interpreter for the hearing.


During the proceeding, the judge will review the evidence and consider whether a bond reduction or release is appropriate based on the facts of the case. At DeMartini Williams Law, PLLC, we work closely with clients and their families to present relevant information and advocate for a fair custody determination. If you or a loved one is in detention, contact our office today to discuss how we can help you pursue release and protect your rights.
