About Immigration Law in Florida

Immigration matters are handled entirely in the federal system, not Florida state courts. Removal proceedings for Florida are heard at EOIR immigration courts in Miami (including the Krome detained court) and Orlando.

The Executive Office for Immigration Review operates the Miami Immigration Court, the Miami Krome (Detained) Immigration Court, and the Orlando Immigration Court, located at 500 N. Orange Avenue, Suite 1100, Orlando, FL.

Since July 1, 2025, Florida law (Chapter 2025-82, from CS/HB 915) bars notaries public who are not licensed attorneys from advertising as a "notario público" or "immigration consultant," and requires a disclaimer stating they are not licensed to practice law or give legal advice.
