Approved Green Card!

It has been a journey and at times very emotional one but Brian Getson provided a strong and professional support throughout this long process. He has been transparent about chances, potential pitfalls and best strategies to proceed for achieving the desired result - GC approved. We had an open commu...nication and I felt safe to share my concerns and fears. I strongly recommend Brian Getson if you are thinking to start the permanent residency case.

Successful NIW Petition and Hassle Free Naturalization

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.

Exceptional expertice and service !

Can't thank Brian enough for taking care of our case! The RFE we came with was a bit tricky, we have talked to a few lawyers, before we found Brian, and the solution he suggested immediately felt the best! Now we are happy permanent residents! His professionalism is outstanding so is his attention to... the detail and to your particular situation as a whole! Brian responded to every email promptly and before submitting the case he provided us with the scan of every page, arranged exactly the way it is about to be sent. Something I had to fight for with other lowyers in the past. Brian is always on the same page with you about what is to be done and why. All this great work while asking a very democratic price for the job at hand. Absolutely happy with the way our cases were taken care of, will recommend to all of my friends and anyone seeking immigration under EB1A, EB2, EB2-NIW and similar categories.

excellent immigration attorney

We decided to apply for green card two months before my son's 21 birthday. Brian kindly agreed to help us in this very tight time slot. And he prepared the whole application package for one and a half month! Sure, the whole GC journey was long and stressful, but we always felt his professional and pe...rsonal support. I received an EB2-NIW approval without any RFE. Now all my family has green cards and I highly recommend Brian to anybody who needs an immigration attorney.

Brian's Excellent Representation Helped Achieve Our GC!

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!
