Outstanding and Prompt Legal Support

I lived outside the US where i work and just got admitted into the US with my family on an EB2 visa. All thanks to the great work of Peter Messersmith. I contacted Peter after some other lawyers made me believe i need to have published papers and obtained several citations before i can be qualified t...o apply. I work in the oil and gas industry and held some managerial positions which i shared in my CV with Peter. After reviewing my CV, he replied that my profile is good for an EB1/EB2 Visa application. We started the processes and Peter was super outstanding in guiding me through the process. When i received an RFE and spoke to Peter, he was so calm and told me to relax that we will get it approved. The RFE response was soon submitted and the approval received after few weeks. He supported me through the USCIS and NVC process making it look so easy and stress free. His professionalism, intelligence and trustworthiness is top notch.

Absolutely the BEST lawyer

I'm not a researcher or scientist. I'm just a project manager. I never published any papers or obtained any citations. When many other lawyers told me that I don't stand a chance but Peter got my EB1 approved on day 3 and NIW approved on day 5. It shows me that he's absolutely the BEST! Trustworthy, ...diligent, professional, honest, highly intelligent is what I would describe Peter. I'm extremely grateful.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
