Many immigrants face deportation without legal representation at immigration courts, where 52% of roughly 3.2 million pending cases lack an attorney according to the Vera Institute of Justice. Volunteer programs are coordinating efforts to assist people navigating this complicated system. Data suggests that having an attorney is vital for success, as 47% of those who had a lawyer were successful compared to only 19% of those who did not.
