Immigration Appeals

Denied doesn’t mean defeated.


At Haim Vasquez Immigration Law Firm, we understand that a denial of your immigration application or removal defense can feel like the end of the road—but in many cases, it’s just the beginning of a new legal strategy. Our attorneys bring years of proven experience and a fierce commitment to justice as we help clients challenge unfavorable decisions through the appeals process.

Swift, Strategic Action When It Matters Most

Time is of the essence in immigration appeals. Whether your case involves a denied green card, visa petition, asylum application, or removal order, we act quickly and decisively to:

  • Review your full immigration record
  • Identify legal errors or misinterpretations
  • Build compelling appellate arguments
  • File timely motions and notices to preserve your rights

Our team is equipped to handle appeals at every level, from agency reviews to federal litigation.

Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA)

The Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA) is the highest administrative body for interpreting and applying immigration laws. If an immigration judge has denied your case, we can file an appeal with the BIA to:

  • Challenge removal orders
  • Contest asylum denials
  • Appeal rulings on cancellation of removal or adjustment of status

We handle every stage of the BIA appeal process, from filing the Notice of Appeal (Form EOIR-26) to drafting legal briefs and motions to reconsider or reopen.

Administrative Appeals Office (AAO)

The AAO reviews decisions from USCIS related to:

  • Employment-based immigration petitions
  • Nonimmigrant visa denials
  • Waivers of inadmissibility
  • Humanitarian requests

If your petition was denied by USCIS, we’ll help you file a motion to reopen or reconsider or an appeal with the AAO using Form I-290B. We analyze every denial for factual or procedural error and present strong, evidence-backed arguments for reversal.

Federal Circuit Court Appeals

For some clients, the fight for relief leads to the Federal Courts of Appeals, particularly if the BIA has issued a final removal order or USCIS has denied a petition after all administrative remedies have been exhausted.

We represent clients before the Fifth Circuit and other federal appellate courts in:

  • Petitions for Review of BIA decisions
  • Challenges to the constitutionality or legality of immigration laws or procedures
  • Emergency stays of removal and motions to stay deportation

Our legal team is skilled in high-level brief writing, oral arguments, and navigating the procedural nuances of the federal appellate process.
