General safe havens are those that work to avoid removability regardless of the nature of the criminal offense.  These would include making a claim to United States Citizenship, avoiding a conviction entirely, or succeeding in a post-conviction attack of a damaging conviction.  A discussion of these general safe havens and more may be found in N. Tooby & J. Rollin, Safe Havens: How to Identify and Construct Non-Deportable Convictions (2005).
