When someone is detained in the country for being undocumented, they are typically transported directly to an Immigration and Customers Enforcement (ICE) detention facility until they can be deported to their country of origin. Although many detention periods last just a few days, some detentions can last months – or even years. During the time spent in these detention centers, detainees can encounter many different challenges, including abuse. Detainees can experience different type of abuse, including sexual abuse, at the hands of ICE agents, other staff, and even other detainees.
Unfortunately, due to language barriers and a lack of information, victims of sexual abuse in these detention centers are unaware of their rights and of the legal options available to them. Here at our law firm, our team has experience in these types of claims. In addition, our team is proud to offer legal services completely in Spanish.
If you or a member of your family is looking for a Spanish speaking lawyer for ICE sexual assault, contact us today.

Relief Options for Immigrant Victims of Sexual Assault and other Harm
Without a doubt, all victims of sexual abuse have the right to pursue sexual abuse claims – yes, even immigrants. Immigrants, however, have an extra right. When immigrants are victims of abuse, they become eligible to receive a special type of visa. The U Visa was created to help undocumented immigrants stay in the country after becoming victims of sexual abuse or other crime. While fighting for your right to sue for immigration detention center sexual assault, our lawyers will also help you obtain your U Visa.

Can I Sue for Immigration Detention Center Sexual Abuse?
Yes, you could sue. ICE has a duty to keep detainees safe in their facilities. When ICE fails to keep detainees safe, whether its from abuse at the hands of ICE agents, other staff, or even other detainees, the government agency could be liable for all resulting harm and could be sued.
¿Puedo demandar a ICE por mi abuso sexual durante mi detención?
Si, usted puede demandar. Esto es porque ICE tiene el deber de asegurarse de que las personas detenidas estén seguras durante el tiempo en las instalaciones de la agencia federal. Por esta razón, la agencia de ICE puede verse responsable si los detenidos sufren abuso sexual o cualquier otra lesión o daño a mano de un agente de ICE, algún otro personal de las instalaciones, o otra persona detenida. Para más información sobre su derecho a demandar a ICE, llámenos en cuanto le sea posible.
Can I be Compensated for ICE Sexual Assault?
