Immigration Appeals Attorney In Kansas City

If a judge has denied your immigration petition, it need not be the end of the road. Don’t lose hope. Our immigration appeals attorneys can help you appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals. This board has the authority to review – and reverse – decisions rendered by the Immigration Court and the Department of Homeland Security. But there are strict deadlines, so you need to get your appeal in right away. Start the appeal process today.

What Will Happen In The Appeals Process?

The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) must receive your appeal within 30 days after the immigration judge denied your petition. Your attorney will prepare a written legal brief to present your case in the best light, citing all the facts and arguments that support your position. After the board receives your brief as well as the immigration judge’s brief, they will review both briefs and issue their decision. That decision can either dismiss your appeal or send the matter back to the immigration judge for further action. During your appeal, the U.S. government allows you to stay in the U.S. while you wait for a decision. Don’t go through this process alone. Our immigration appeals attorneys have years of experience arguing even the most complex cases. Start your appeals process today.

What If The Board Of Immigration Appeals Denies My Appeal?

Even if the BIA denies your appeal, there are situations that qualify you to bring your case before a U.S. Federal Court of Appeals. Again, you must file a document called a Petition for Review within 30 days from the board’s denial of your appeal. Your attorney and the Department of Homeland Security will again submit written briefs. In certain cases, your attorney might be able to argue your case in person in front of three judges. If the BIA denied your appeal, make an appointment with our experienced immigration attorneys to represent you during the appeals process.
