About this firm
Finding out a loved one is detained by ICE can be shocking and deeply stressful. It can feel like there’s no clear path forward, but taking action quickly can make a real difference. Here are steps you can take to support and locate your loved one: 1. Gather Important Information – Collect their A-Number (if available), full name, date of birth, country of origin, and any documents from ICE. 2. Use the ICE Detainee Locator – Search online using their A-Number or exact personal details. It may take 1–2 days for records to appear. 3. Contact the Local ICE Office – If you can’t find them online, call the field office where they may be held for more information. 4. Check Local Jails – Some individuals are temporarily held in local or county facilities before being transferred. 5. Be Cautious Contacting Consulates – While they can help, this may affect certain immigration cases, such as asylum. Speak with an attorney first. 6. Contact an Immigration Attorney – A lawyer can guide you through the process, protect your loved one’s rights, and explore legal options.
