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.

Based on recommendation from many of our friends, we reached out to Mr. Sharif (Shah Peerally group) about our EB1A case. We have done extensive research and spent many years hunting down the options just to understand if my profile makes  a good eligible EB1A case or not. Other lawyers reviewed my r...esume (Not my profile) and suggested that I go with other categories (Eg: NIW EB2) or get a PhD or more citations. None of that sounded reasonable and we definitely backed out on the EB1A idea until we spoke to Sharif. Honestly, we were a little speculative in the beginning (Based on our bitter experience with other lawyers). Sharif did not give us any false expectations just to get us onboarded. He reviewed my profile, took time to understand and evaluated my field of endeavor in-depth before he commented on the chances of approval for my EB1A case. He is process oriented and I believe that is the key behind his success rate. He explained in detail and guided us all along. He is very collaborative, considerate and spent a great deal of time to make sure that my case satisfies the outlined statutory guidelines and presented every single evidence to prove the same to the government. My case was received by USCIS on 06/25/2020 and got Approved on 07/02/2020. I couldn't believe how quick that happened. EB1A means a lot to any individual and their family and approval takes a lot of stress out. God bless Sharif for caring deeply about his clients and helping many families in this regard. Despite being exceptionally talented he is humble, honest and open for suggestions and critiques. Please consult sharif or associate with him on your EB1A case. He knows immigration law inside-out and his outstanding record of success speaks for itself. 

After being sponsored and not being able to get the H1B working visa and my OPT expiring soon, I came across Sharif in youtube, EB1A video. Sharif helped me to apply for my Green Card application in EB2 category. I don't have enough WORDS to express how grateful I am to Sharif Silmi. It is overwhe...lming to look for an attorney, and its EXTREMELY challenging to find an EXCELLENT, HONEST, and PROFESSIONAL attorney!. Sharif is a high standard immigration attorney that is honest and extremely professional, capable, and reliable!! He didn't leave me alone in the process; he was always there and willing to help me and answer my questions! I am pleased to have work with him! I want to thank you again, Sharif! For everything!

After watching series of informative EB1A video from Sharif, I contacted the Silmi Law Group for my EB1A evolution. As lots of folks from India, I was stuck in the EB2 queue since April 2011. He did a very in-depth evolution of my case and was very confident that I can apply in EB1A category. Initial...ly I had been ask to create an introductory document regarding to my field of endeavor, which help him and his team to understand my field. He immediately setup several sessions with me for collecting and discussing necessary information to building up the case. He never tend to the pressure from me to finish faster rather really focused on perfection when submission. I still remember him saying that the file should pass his RFE check to get submitted. We did go back and forth on few things to make sure that my case get approved in first attempt itself. Initially, we filed my case in regular process because premium was unavailable due to COVID-19 but I had my approval in a week after converting it to premium process. After my i140 approval, I have retained Sharif’s services for AOS and next phase. He is an exceptionally collaborative and open for suggestions. Be open, be honest and rest Sharif will guide you. If someone is looking for an expert perfectionist then I highly recommend Sharif and his team.

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.
