Petitions for Review to the United States Court of Appeals to any of the Federal Circuits from Final Orders of the Board of Immigration Appeals Petitions for Review are the last statutory level of review (as of right) of an administrative decision from an order of deportation or removal. In other words, once the Board of Immigration Appeals decides the appeal of the noncitizen (from an order of deportation or removal from an Immigration Judge), the noncitizen has the right, by statute, to seek judicial review of the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals.  These petitions are filed with the United States Court of Appeal within the particular federal circuit where the administrative lower proceedings were held.  Noncitizens have three levels of review of their cases. The first is before the Immigration Judge, the second is before the Board of Immigration Appeals, and the third level is before the corresponding federal circuit court of appeals, in the jurisdiction where the lower proceedings were held. For example, if the decision of the Board of Immigration Appeals arises from an appeal filed by a noncitizen from an order of deportation or removal by an Immigration Judge in New York City, the affected noncitizen can elect to either give up at this time and leave the United States, or continue to fight his or her removal by filing a Petition for Judicial Review before the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.     The legal fees involved in representing an alien in these type of cases may only be quoted after we have been able to determine the specific issue or issues in each case.  Our fees in all cases will always be reasonable and affordable as evidenced by the legal fees charged for all three level appeals above.  However, to obtain more information on our fees in filing and prosecuting a petition for review, please contact us by email, fax, or telephone to discuss the issues that may be presented and a determination of our fees will be made at that point. The hourly fees are generally the same as Level B appeals to the Board of Immigration Appeals, but the total number of hours necessary to prosecute a petition for review can vary from case to case and from circuit to circuit.
