This will depend on your father's current visa status. In addition, I would need to know your immigration status.

Very simple. Either you study the law and other relevant issues of his case or retain a lawyer to work on the case.

If you are a US citizen and at least 21 you may petition for your father assuming he entered legally.

Significantly more information is needed about you and about your father in order to assess immigration eligibilities and options. Generally, a U.S. citizen child over age 21 may petition for his father who entered the U.S. lawfully and with inspection to adjust status to become a Lawful Permanent Resident (to get a "Green Card") even if the parent has overstayed his visa and/or worked without authorization. Many additional details must be examined, however, to confirm eligibility.
