# Appeals & Removals
We handle appeals and removal-order matters as part of our Canadian immigration practice. Below is how we operate, what you should expect at intake, and the next steps if you need representation.

## Who handles these matters

We are the Law Offices of Moyal & Moyal. Attorney Henry Moyal practices exclusively in Canadian immigration law and handles a broad range of immigration matters each year, including appeals and removal-order work.

## Typical services we provide in appeals & removals (how we work)

- **Intake and case assessment:** We begin with a Free Assessment or initial consultation. During intake we confirm the decision(s) you received, deadlines, and whether an appeal or other remedy is available.
- **Document review and case drafting:** We review the decision/notice you received and your file, and we prepare the necessary submissions or skeleton arguments required for the next procedural step.
- **Pre-hearing preparation:** We prepare a clear outline of the issues, witness statements/affidavits (if required), and provide preparation for you and any witnesses who will testify.
- **Full representation at hearing or on appeal:** We appear on behalf of clients and make written and oral submissions on their behalf.
- **Case management and follow-up:** We handle filings, correspond with the relevant tribunal or court, and update you on timelines and outcomes.

## What to bring to your first appointment

Bring whatever official documents relate to the decision you received and your immigration history. At a minimum, that usually includes:

- The decision letter or removal order you received (all pages)
- Any notices of hearing or appeal that were issued to you
- Copies of previously filed submissions or applications related to the matter
- Passports, ID, and any documents proving your status/time in Canada
- Contact details of any witnesses (if relevant)

If you are unsure what to bring, start with our Free Assessment or contact us and select the appeals-related subject so our intake team can advise.
