George Abbes

Practice Summary

Welcome to the Law Offices of George Abbes in Santa Ana, California. Our team of attorneys is experienced and dedicated to providing comprehensive post-conviction criminal relief services to individuals. One of the services we offer is filing motions to vacate convictions pursuant to California Penal Code section 1473.7. A criminal conviction can have serious immigration consequences, including deportation, exclusion from admission to the United States, and ineligibility for certain immigration benefits. If a person's conviction under Penal Code 1473.7 is vacated, it can alleviate or even eliminate the immigration consequences of the conviction. This can be especially important for individuals who are facing deportation or seeking to obtain a visa or permanent residency. We also handle habeas corpus petitions, which is a legal action that allows people who are unlawfully detained to challenge the legality of their detention. If the court grants the motion, the conviction will be vacated and the charges dismissed. This can have a significant impact on a person's life, as a conviction can have long-lasting consequences, including difficulty finding employment and housing, and the loss of certain civil rights. If you or a loved one is seeking post-conviction relief, our team is here to help. We understand that navigating the legal system can be overwhelming and we are committed to providing compassionate, personalized representation to each of our clients.
