Highly recommended for obtaining Green Card

I hired Sharif Silmi for preparing and filing my Green Card application in EB1A category. Sharif Silmi is extremely knowledgable, very insightful and compassionate Immigration lawyer. He ensured that the whole process of EB1A and NIW application is a smooth happy journey for me. He paid clos...e attention to my overall achievements , helped find out the unique qualifications and provided most valuable recommendations. Mr. Silmi skillfully painted the entire picture of permanent residency, unfolded the great possibilities and always boost the morale. He was very prompt in arranging followup sessions and quick in updating the status with appropriate follow-up actions. He made most sincere efforts to highlight my capabilities and prove my eligibility in order to secure the Green card approval. Overall, Mr. Sharif is offering a great service both to the immigrants by helping them realize the dream of gaining permanent residency and also to the nation as a whole by helping retain the best talents in USA. So I will highly recommend Mr. Sharif for any type of Green Card related consultation.

Very expensive, and no timely response

Silmy law handled my EB1A case. While I indeed got my application approved, working with them was very stressful. They did not respond to my queries on time at all. I had to constantly threaten getting a refund through my credit card company to get any response at all.
