Brian H. Getson

Brian Getson is the lawyer I will recommend to everyone for NIW applications. He is thorough, honest, professional and a highly qualified legal expert. My experience with him is nothing less than perfect. Always timely responses, providing nitty-gritty details and pros and cons of every aspect of the... immigration process. He makes sure that when he files the case, it has a maximum chance of success. He takes time to prepare the application and guide you throughout the process. Although, you will have to work a lot if filing NIW with him but it is completely worth the time.

Brian is a professional, knowledgeable, and thorough immigration attorney who pays particular attention to the details. I retained Brian for both my N1W petition (green card application) and citizenship applications. Given the complex subject of my academic research, Brian was essential in drafting... the letters of recommendations for my petition. Brian was prompt, responsive, and willing to take time to walk me through the process. His response time to the emails is exceptionally fast. His staff are very polite and professional as well. Given the terrific experiences I had, I highly recommend Brian to anyone who seeks an immigration attorney with broad knowledge and experience in the field.

Brian Getson has been an excellent attorney. We have had several immigration lawyers over the last 7 years or so. We have been taken advantage of and lied to by many. We started working with Brian about a year ago and he has led us through the immigration process with grace and kindness. My husba...nd just received his green card, no doubt due to the knowledge and and hard work of Brian and his staff. Brian always responds quickly to any questions or concerns that we have had through this process. My husband had a special circumstance and due to Brian's research he was given the greencard with presedence from another similar case. We are so grateful, this has made such a difference in our lives. My husband has been reunited with his family after 10 years, and we can live without fearing his deportation.

I highly recommend Brian Getson to the aspirants of GC in NIW/Eb1 categories in the USA. I am a researcher of Indian origin and had been working in the USA on H1B visa in the field of Biology/Medical Entomology/Vector Biology. I also undertook an industry job for a couple of years but returned to aca...demia. At the time of application (2016), I worked in the capacity of a researcher at a State University in the Mid-west. While I was searching for attorneys, a friend of mine who had achieved GC through Brian recommended him. Brian was kind to offer a free-of-cost skype consultation and answered a myriad of questions and concerns (over months) before I sought his legal services for my Eb1a/NIW applications. Brian was considerate of our financial situation and accepted our request to pay his legal fees in installments. At the time of GC application, I had a total of seven publications (best publication in highest impact factor 5) and some 120 plus citations; so just enough for an Eb1a standard. It took 5-6 months of a hard work between Brian (and his team) and I to prepare applications. En route, we encountered difficulties in what the application should reflect. I had the view to present the document with deep scientific/accurate and factual information while Brian’s experience/expertise put things in a solid legal perspective and helped prepare the document suitable for USCIS. I must share some cautionary advice to all aspirants: 1) since attorneys are not scientists, attorneys see things with legal perspective, unlike scientists. As such, differences in perspectives will cause difficulties in client-attorney relationships at times, 2) both, the applicant and the attorney have to do lots of hard work; at times, it will appear to the applicant that he/she is doing much more work than the attorney is. While it may be so, attorney’s help definitely carves the application such that it meets USCIS’s legal standards for a GC. After submission, it took almost a year for the processing of our applications at USCIS (Nebraska Center). We never got any RFE or interview or any other documentation related trouble on our applications. Both of our I-140s for NIW and Eb1a were approved on same day; I believe Brian’s strong legal documentation left no room for a doubt. In summation, following descriptors define Brian aptly: a prompt communicator, kind, understanding, highly knowledgeable, provided legally strong representation and accurate guidance. Since approval of our GC, Brian has been kind to help some of my other friends as well. With God’s grace and Brian’s help, my wife and I could succeed in achieving our green cards in 2017. With Brian's guidance, I hope you will too. All the best!
