great service on I-140 and I-485 applications

I think Dr. Cai's team did a great job in helping me get my green card. He always very quickly replies my email and answers my question in details. He is also very experienced and pointed me in the right direction to apply. I think he is a great attorney to work with and I highly recommend him.

Absolutely Aweful experience

As a company owner, it’s ansoultely that I decided to use him as the attorney for my employees H1B application. His asssistants were not good at English and disclosed my company’s confidential information after I repeated told her not to. After 5 month, our case of a H1B transfer was denied because n...ot enough documents and not enough justifications. This is absolutely disaster and their attitude is so negative. I will never ever use them.

Replied last October 25, 2017

It is unfortunate that this H-1B application was denied. As we have with more than 1,000 clients since New Weiming was established, we work closely with all of our clients throughout the petition process to help them succeed. That's why we have one of the best approval rates in the business - near 100%. As with all cases, there are many variables involved, including those we cannot control. When challenges arise, however, we always offer to remedy the situation. We offered to help prepare and resubmit a modified H-1B application for this client with a discounted fee and we provided additional advice to the beneficiary and family members with no fee. This is not the standard in the industry - we provide these benefits because we are dedicated to our client's needs. Regarding this case and similar ones, we should clarify the following: (1) the USCIS scrutinizes H-1B applications more than before. In fact, published data shows that the denial rates for H-1B applications increased significantly in 2017; (2) legally there is no H-1B "transfer"; in this case, the beneficiary is currently not in H-1B visa status; (3) we did not disclose any confidential information. Moreover, the company owner almost never contacted us while the beneficiary contacted us several times a day. We are obliged to inform the basic H-1B requirements, including timeline, to the beneficiary; and, (4) My "assistants" actually hold Ph.D. and Master's degrees from highly reputable universities in the United States. Finally, we pride ourselves on the extra care we take with our non-native English speaking clients to ensure their materials are correct and meet USCIS' standards.

Ph.D in Biology passed EB1A

NWM group took my case when i had only 3 review records, 22 papers, 260 citation records, they helped me to highlight my research work and passed the EB1A application. NWM group prepared the recommendation letters in two weeks, and my petition letter as promised. USCIS received my package on Sep 6, 2...016, and approved on Sep 9, 2016. Then we started my 485 package preparation and submitted it on Oct 3, 2016, after a short time RFE about the I-693 at the end of April 2017, I received my card this week! Thank you, New Wei Ming Group!

Speedy, excellent service

I used the new Weiming Law group for my EB1-A application. We started preparing my I-140 application in early January, and had it filed in mid February, and approved soon afterwards. The whole process was very smooth and quick; the staff was professional and helpful. I fully recommend them for anyon...e who wants to hire a lawyer for their EB1-A application.

EB-1A weak case approved after PP (NSC)

Background: My case is fairly weak... Major: Chemistry, Citation: 100+, Publication: 6 1st-author EB-1A submitted: Early December 2016, PP received: middle of January 2017, approved in a week, paper based approval notice received. Dr. Cai and his lawyer firm are very professional and helpful for... my case. They replied to email very fast, normally within a couple of hours. They provided detailed instructions on how to prepare the application materials. They drafted recommendation letters, and petition letter very fast (within a week). I strongly recommended Dr. Cai and NWM lawyer firm to those who want to apply "green card" with relatively weak backgrounds.
