DISCLAIMER & PRIVACY

   

 Immigration AppealWorks® will file and prosecute on behalf of your clients (or, on your behalf if you are an alien who has received an order of deportation from an Immigration Judge) any direct "appeal" before the Board of Immigration Appeals. Included among them, are orders of denials of applications for relief from deportation, exclusion or removal, such as Suspension of Deportation, Cancellation of Removal, Asylum and Withholding, Convention Against Torture (CAT), or denials of Applications for Waivers, such as Section 212(c), 212(h) or 212(i) waivers, among others.

We can also file and prosecute any "motion to reopen" or "reconsider" any adverse decision made by an Immigration Judge, or by the Board of Immigration Appeals, where the facts and/or the law support such a motion.

In addition, we can file and prosecute on behalf of your clients (or on your behalf, if you are an alien who has received a Final Order of deportation from the Board of Immigration Appeals) any petition for review before the United States Court of Appeal in any Circuit of the United States. In rare circumstances outside of the Ninth Circuit's jurisdiction, we may also agree to intervene on behalf of an alien before any appropriate forum, including on habeas relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2241, complaint for mandamus relief under 28 U.S.C. § 1361 or application for declaratory relief under 28 U.S.C. § 2201 before a district court, in cases where the alien has received a final denial decision on an application for an immigration benefit and there is no direct appeal is available (i.e., adjustment of status).

At Immigration AppealWorks®, we represent aliens on all of their appeal needs ONLY. We do not represent aliens in INITIAL proceedings and filings of applications before the Immigration Service or before the Immigration courts. In other words, Immigration Appealworks® practice is exclusively an appellate firm and will only intervene on appeal after the alien has lost his case and has been ordered either deported, excluded or removed. Hence, our trade mark name of Immigration "AppealWorks®"Our fees in prosecuting any of these administrative appeals are reasonable as well as affordable, and remember, that the practice is limited to prosecuting appeals only.

We will file and prosecute any petition for judicial review to any Court of Appeal of the United States from any final order of the Board of Immigration Appeals ("BIA"). Like with appeals from orders of Immigration Judges, it is crucial that the United States Court of Appeals receive the petition for review (and a request for stay of deportation, exclusion or removal) within the statutory time of 30 days from the date of the decision of the BIA. Otherwise, the petition will not be heard, absent some special circumstances such as lack of proper notice of the decision of the BIA, or some other excusable reasons. It is important to keep in mind that a set of facts that have been found to be excusable in one circuit of the United States, may not be excusable in other circuits. Consequently, it is important to keep acquainted with the law of the pertinent circuit before attempting to file a belated petition for review.
