What Is the Board of Immigration Appeals?
The BIA is the highest administrative court for interpreting and applying immigration laws in the US. It is responsible for hearing appeals of immigration judges' decisions, certain Department of Homeland Security (DHS) decisions, and others. The BIA has jurisdiction over cases involving removal proceedings, applications for relief from removal, and more.
When Can I File an Appeal?
In most cases, you can file an appeal within 30 days of the decision by USCIS or an immigration judge. This makes it crucial to seek legal assistance as soon as possible. Any delays jeopardize the viability of your appeal.
What Happens if an Appeal Is Denied?
In such cases, you can pursue a petition for review with an appropriate appeals court. Doing so asks a higher court to examine the decisions made by the BIA. In the process of appealing, you may have a second chance to provide more evidence and testify in court if you could not do so previously. An attorney like ours at The Fogle Law Firm, LLC can advise on how to best present your case and fight to correct errors and misjudgments.
Federal Immigration Litigation
In addition to immigration appeals, our firm represents clients in various federal immigration litigation cases. This includes lawsuits against government agencies for unjust denials of immigration benefits, unlawful detentions by ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), and other violations of your rights as an immigrant. Our attorneys understand the sensitive and high-stakes nature of these cases, which is why they work diligently to secure the best case outcomes possible.
Writs of Mandamus & Administrative Procedure Act Actions
We excel at representing clients with writs of mandamus before federal courts and pursuing lawsuits under the Administrative Procedure Act (APA). The former, writs of mandamus, aim to compel the US government to perform an act they legally owe you. A lawsuit under the APA, meanwhile, requires the government to show cause as to why they denied you relief or another type of administrative action. Our firm has experience bringing both types of cases effectively and efficiently.

The Fogle Law Firm, LLC's Track Record
Our founding member and principal is a nationally recognized litigator in immigration law. In 2006, he won an unprecedented four immigration-based petitions for review (three published decisions) in the notoriously immigration-unfriendly US Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit. He has since built upon his appellate success, winning numerous published and unpublished decisions in the US Courts of Appeals for the Sixth, Ninth, and Eleventh Circuits.
In 2019, the Supreme Court granted certiorari to Attorney Fogle’s case in Barton v. Barr. Although he lost 5-4, he was able to be in the Supreme Court for one of the last cases that Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg heard.
Below is an extensive listing of the US Circuit Court cases Attorney Fogle has won with the support of our firm’s team:
- Celestino-Contreras v. US Attorney General (11th Circuit 2008)

It is important to note that published cases create new laws that must be followed in the court's jurisdiction. This means these cases are not just relevant to the individuals involved. They impact everyone in the immigration law field, including Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officers and immigration judges.
