Reverting DOS advisory opinion on J1 212e.

I worked with Ellen on my J1 case, where DOS found me a subject to 2-year home residency restriction based on US government funding for my Ph.D. Four out of five 5-star rated J-1 attorneys I consulted with before told me that this case is extremely hard to resolve because of the government funding, a...nd suggested me going straight to waiver (which is not likely to get in this case either), or to fulfill the requirement and go to my home country for two years. Ellen did the miracle! I can't even describe how much we are thankful to her professionalism and experience based intuition. She wrote a detailed letter to the DOS, where she explained why they made a wrong initial decision regarding my 212e, and helped me get all the supporting evidences from my school and associated government agency. I should say that it is very rare case when DOS change their decision, and Ellen made them do it. Thank you so much Ellen! I highly recommend you as a 5-star professional to anybody who have J-1 related issues.

Best lawyer with successful results

Best lawyer in Boston. Very professional kind and respectful. I worked with many lawyers but no luck. Ellen is very knowledgeable in the law and always was ready to work and find the best law or regulations to solve my immigration status. She helped me with several kind of cases including J 1 visa, ...B 1 visa and Green Card. All case were very difficult and complicated but she successfully won all of them. Ellen also listened to all my concerns answered my questions and was ready to work. Very honest and realistic, explained the process of preparing the case, addressed all the difficulties that might come up and worked hard to answer and provide documentations to serve the case. Hire Ellen and you will get great results. l am glad that Ellen worked on my cases and produced wonderful successful results.
