If you just received the denial, you might be eligible to file a Motion to Reopen.

If your I-130 was approved, but your I-485 was denied, then you can just re-file the I-485, assuming your priority date is current. If both were denied, he will have to re-file the I-130, then you will have to re-file the I-485. The timing of the filing depends on if he is a LPR or U.S. citizen &/or your nationality.
