When a Person Wants Out of a Green Card Marriage

Marriage fraud is a crime that is punishable by up to 5 years in federal prison and $250,000 in fines. You are wise to get out of this as quickly as possible. However, you will need the assistance of at least three attorneys to make sure that you minimize any liability that may have already attached based on your actions. You will need a divorce attorney to assist you with the divorce and to make sure that no admissions are made in the divorce proceeding that could be used against you in a criminal court. You will need a criminal attorney to advise you regarding the criminal implications of past conduct and to minimize criminal liability. Finally, you will need an immigration lawyer in Denver, to help you withdraw the pending petition.
