Sharif Silmi

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.
