About Emmanuel Enyinwa
In the course of his 22 years of practice, Emmanuel Enyinwa, owner and proprietor of the Law Office of Emmanuel Enyinwa, has quietly litigated and won some of the most significant cases that have helped shape the legal landscape in the United States. He has litigated over 100 cases before the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, winning several reversals of Administrative decisions. His most prominent case was Im v. Gonzales, 497 F.3d 990, 997 (9th Cir. 2007), a case that overturned a quarter century of jurisprudence in the area of the so-called prosecutor bar to political asylum. This was--and still remains--the only case the government lost on this issue, and began the domino effect that culminated in Negusie v. Holder, in which the United States Supreme Court pretty much told the Immigration and Customs Enforcement that they had been applying the wrong standard for twenty-five years. As a partner at the law firm of Emeziem & Ogbu, Mr. Enyinwa also won Matter of Sandra Patricia Gonzalez-Silva, 24 I&N Dec. 218 (BIA 2007), which established that INA Section 237(a)(2)(E) only applies only to convictions that took place after October 1, 1996. Mr Enyinwa has won several other unpublished appellate cases, as well as motions and bench and jury trials before the trial courts and Administrative judges. Mr. Enyinwa now focuses on all aspects of litigation, including personal injury, where he has secured millions of dollars in the last few years for his clients in settlement, arbitration, and litigation, the most significant of which was a confidential settlement in Kaiser Arbitration, a confidential settlement of mid-six figures for a doctor who was wrongfully terminated by a California prison based on spurious charges, several settlements and successful motions in civil and contract litigation.
