New York Appeals Attorney

Immigration Appeals in New York

When you have received an adverse ruling on any aspect of your immigration status, you have a right to retain legal representation to help you appeal the decision with the USCIS Administrative Appeals Office (AAO) or the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). Appellate law is a complex subject, and it is in your best interests to find an attorney who is prepared to take on the unique challenges involved with preparing a brief and arguing your case in court. The team at Eiges & Eiges, PC has over 35 years of experience, and an AV® rated New York immigration attorney from our firm will represent you throughout the appeals process, fighting to achieve a favorable outcome.

You have a limited window of opportunity to file your appeal, 30 days or less in some cases, so it is important to take action now. We can represent you in any type of appeal, including denial of an immigration visa or green card, as well as if you have been selected for removal from the country. Making an appeal can be part of a deportation defense strategy, as it may result in a delay of removal proceedings until the appeal has been heard.

Appealing New York Immigration Rulings

An appeal is not a new hearing, and you will not have the opportunity to introduce new evidence. It is a review of the previous hearing, during which the judge will examine the ruling and the evidence to determine whether the decision was arrived at by following proper procedure. If it appears that you were given an unfair hearing, the judge my order a new one or may issue a new ruling. In the event that your first appeal is unsuccessful, it may be possible to go to a higher court. Our mission is to use our experience to effectively represent our clients, and we will work tirelessly to help you secure the ruling that you deserve.
