Skilled Handling of Immigration Appeals

If you are unhappy with the results of an immigration case, you may be able to pursue an appeal through the Board of Immigration Appeals (BIA). This is a unique legal process that requires the attention of a skilled attorney. At Solomon, Berschler, Campbell & Thomas, P.C., we can serve as your advocates through the immigration appeals process.

When Can You Appeal an Immigration Case?

You may want to pursue an appeal if:

• A visa application has been rejected by the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS)
• You have lost a removal proceeding in immigration court and are threatened with deportation

However, it is important to understand that there must be grounds to pursue an appeal. An unfavorable result may not be sufficient.

For example, if you believe the loss of a deportation case was the result of errors made by an immigration court judge or during the removal proceeding, you may have grounds for an appeal. Perhaps important evidence was overlooked. Perhaps testimony was not heard.

Similarly, if you believe something was overlooked by USCIS when considering your visa application, you may have reason to pursue an appeal. Our Norristown, Pennsylvania, lawyers are prepared to carefully review your immigration case and determine whether you have appellate opportunities.

Immigration Appeals Are Unique

A loss in immigration court means that you can be removed from the United States. There may be no further opportunities for permanent resident status. It is important that you choose a lawyer who knows that immigrations appeals are unique, even from other appellate matters, and is prepared to navigate the process with your interests at heart.
