Sharif Silmi

Sharif is the best EB1A expert and overall detail-oriented, timely with a practical outlook to give you the extra edge in your application. When you engage with his firm, you are engaging with the most experienced. I do not have a Phd, and not too many publications (less than 100 citations). I wo...rk as a regular engineer in a Fortune 1000 company and from a country that is always backlogged. My friend recommended Sharif as someone who can help professionals with EB1A even if you have no PhD. I engaged with Sharif and after seeing his YouTube talk on the same topic. The first thing I absolutely love about Sharif is his detail oriented and specific nature. Essentially, he conducts deep background interviews to gather information for the application. He laid out to me, in plain language, what the requirements are from a law perspective. There are lots and lots of nuances, and Sharif breaks down so very well. He also brainstormed with me what counts as evidence - for instance, he pointed out that the work that I did in an NIW area can be emphasized more. Essentially, the most important part is the field of endeavor and Sharif surgically helps to sharpen this with hours and hours of discussion and evidence collection. There is also a second distinguishing feature - When you work with Sharif Silmi Law, you are working with THE Sharif. You are not passed on to someone else. This means, he is the one getting on a call with you - every single time. He makes time for you in his calendar and is always available via email. I have never had to wait more than a day for an email reply, and more than a day to get on his calendar. He prioritizes you and your application. No passing it on someone after initial review. Sharif drafted a strong application. He is not just persuasive, but makes it obvious for anyone reading, that you deserve an EB1A ASAP! The way he wrote and organized the application made all the difference. Next is his capable team. Sharif hires the best people to efficiently get the job done. For instance, my application ran 1185 pages - basically a lot, and lot of evidence. They work with you to land this for and get you to the finish line. FYI -- One of the teammates sent me the final application to review in the middle of the night on a weekend. They really want you to succeed and it absolutely shows. I can think of no other firm when it comes to all kinds of employment-based petitions, especially EB1A. I got my approval within just 10 days after we filed my I-140. EB1A is all about drafting the strongest application that is iron clad - no room for doubt, no room for error. Sharif is THE attorney to deliver this for you.

EB1A green card guru! Great experience overall having Sharif Silmi as my attorney. Sharif understands his client, very insightful and is an expert in his field. Truly a professional and marvelous individual. He is results oriented. My EB1A I-140 got approved in May, 2021 without any RFE. It took 6 ...days for the approval. Thank you so much.

Atty Sharif SILMI is a friend for me. Since the beginning of the USCIS procedures he was the strategy man that drove my whole family into the Green Card achievement. It was a hard job since it was a waver visa and much more complicated than the regular visas. He was always very positive and passion...ate about my case. He is a generous person, hard worker and very accessible, always focused on our goals. Just believe in what he tells you, do as planned and pray. Having him at your side is already half the way. The other half is God wishes and your destiny. Good luck and I wish you a lot of patience during the way. God bless y’all

Sharif is amazing his attention to his clients and his advice is perfect, I need helped to bring a foreign student to the USA on a student visa and his assistance made that possible in a very affordable and efficient timeframe.

Summary: Attorney Sharif is an immigration guru. You should definitely consult with him if you are looking for an intelligent, honest, and trustworthy immigration lawyer. When I was contemplating pursuing the EB-1A path for my Green Card a few months ago, I came across Attorney Sharif Silmi’s high...ly informational YouTube channel. When I was ready to move forward with my petition, I interviewed about ten immigration lawyers. I chose to move forward with him because of his in-depth experience in this area and unique insights & winning strategies he shared with me during the initial consultation call. I have worked with several immigration firms throughout my career on various employment visa-related issues, including a very well-known immigration firm that my employer retained in 2020 to petition an EB-1B case for me (which wasn’t successful). Compared to other immigration firms/lawyers, working with Attorney Sharif’s team was so refreshing and impressive. Attorney Sharif is highly detail-oriented, systematic, and methodological. He not only explained all the EB-1A requirements in detail, but he also described what I exactly need to do to satisfy those requirements and shared his insights on how a USCIS adjudicator would evaluate my petition. Attorney Sharif is passionate and committed. He and his team are highly reliable, approachable, and helpful. Outside of our regular video calls, I asked them a lot of questions, and they got back to me all the time within 24 hours. I got to participate in the entire process closely and felt like a core member of their team. He maintains a really high bar for quality. After the petition draft was ready, we went back and forth a few times to ensure that our final petition was of excellent quality. My EB-1A petition was filed with Premium Processing at the NSC in April 2021 and got approved within five days. After my EB-1A approval, he also filed an interfiling request to move my pending AOS petitions to the newly approved EB-1A petition. Attorney Sharif would go above and beyond to make you successful. He has a lifelong customer in me.
