Detention Facilities
Texas Immigration Detention Center near Houston, TX
According to the Global Detention Project, the United States has the most extensive immigration detention system in the world. On any given day, approximately 30,000 people are being held in administrative immigration detention facilities across the United States, including the Texas immigration detention center.
Although non-citizens being detained while they complete immigration or asylum-related processes are classified as administrative (or “civil”) detention, the facilities used by ICE for these detentions are essentially operated like prisons.
If you or someone you love is being held in a Texas immigration detention center, schedule a consultation with our skilled immigration attorneys serving in Shenandoah, Montgomery, Houston, Livingston, and more locations in and around The Woodlands, Texas.
