Peter Messersmith

A Nigerian Professor that doubled as my mentor during graduate school recommended Mr. Messersmith, Esq for my NIW/EB1 application. A the time, I was not sure how to proceed, until I wrote to the Messersmith Law Firm and inquired about the process. It did not take long before the paralegal of the firm..., Mrs. Jen Ren, replied to my email, including inviting me to send my resume for review. Upon looking at my previous experiences and qualifications, Mr. Messersmith determined that I qualified for NIW/EB1. He chose to represent me on what I thought was a relatively cheaper legal fee. In fact, we came up with a payment plan that including monthly installments (super convenient for a student like me back then). Soon, he would send me a list of materials I should gather, and how to package the same in order to make a convincing case. Over 1 year, we worked together and submitted both my I-140 and I-485 together in July 2017. One year later, my green card was approved, despite the much anti-immigration political rhetoric in the country. What I liked about the Messersmith Law Firm was their responsiveness. They were quick to respond to emails, to send you notifications, to inform you on present immigration law changes, and importantly in answering phone calls and appointments. Mr. Messersmith was also great at working with what you have, even if you may lack key documents needed to apply. This speaks to the resourcefulness and respect in the field that he has gained so far. I highly recommend the Messersmith Law Firm for all your immigration needs. I have already referred two people. Thank you Mr. Messersmith and Jen.

My family and I had many immigration issues but luckily Peter is our lawyer so everything was resolved successfully! I got a job offer from a company while on an H1B visa. Peter handles all of the immigration cases for my new company. During the H1B transfer process, Peter discovered that my pre...vious company forgot to file change of status for my spouse and three children from F2 to H4 so my spouse and children have been out of status for almost two years. Peter miraculously fixed such complicated cases and got our four H4s and H1B transfer approved in less than two months. Peter later handled my wife's O1 visa and EB1A and green cards for my family. The whole process went great and it took 7 months and one week for us to get our green cards. It was quicker than we anticipated and there were no issues at all. He was very clear on what documents he wants and how we should gather them. He’s extremely helpful throughout the whole process. My family and I are thrilled because Peter made everything possible. We invited my sister and brother in law and their four adopted children to visit us. The visa officer charged my sister and brother in law with INA 212(a)(6)(E) smuggling and INA 212(a)(6)(c)(i) misrepresentation. They were bared for life to enter the US. We retained Peter to help us resolve these issues. Peter diligently handled their cases just like he handled ours. After he filed their cases, it took about 5 months and the government removed both INA 212(a)(6)(E) and INA 212(a)(6)(c)(i) charges from both their record permanently. We’re very grateful for the amazing outcome. My wife is a cancer treatment specialist and saved many people's life. In a way, Peter is the one saving people's life because Peter fixed most difficult issues for us. Otherwise it would be impossible for us to stay here. His assistant Jen is also a very nice lady. I find every opportunity to recommend Peter to friends, co workers and anyone in my church who need immigration services. We are very fortunate to know Peter. We highly recommend him because he fought hard to win our cases and he did. He's the best lawyer!

Peter is the best lawyer I've met before. He guided me step by step to prepare all the materials that USCIS need. Peter is very professional and knowledgeable. Whenever I wrote email to ask him questions, he always responded me so quickly. Most importantly, Peter never gave me non-sense word for a r...eply. He would exactly and clearly tell you what was the key point in your case and which kind of supporting documents you should prepare to strengthen you case. I did hardship waiver, it was not that easy in my case and i didn't have any confidence for that until I met Peter. I will definitely recommend him to my friends and colleagues. If I need a lawyer for immigration case in future, I would come back to him again. He did an excellent job!!! I do appreciate!!

My husband and I enlisted the help of Peter Messersmith sometime in the Fall of 2015. Mr Messersmith reviewed my husband's resume and felt strongly that he was eligible for the NIW. Although some lawyers had informed us the NIW no longer existed or that we were not eligible, Mr. Messersmith reassured... us that he had clients that had received green cards around the period. He suggested he could help to put a strong case together for us if we followed his advise and obtained the supporting documentation. Our interaction with Messersmith law firm was mostly via email, and once over the phone to Mr Messersmith himself and a few times to Jen, his paralegal. getting recommendation letters and gathering the evidence was quite arduous. We eventually put in our application to USCIS around June 2016. Getting a first decision from uscis was delayed too. We were under the impression the entire process will last about 6 months but it lasted about 18months. I must also say it was very expensive. We spent a lot of money but it is money well spent. I will advise prospective clients to be very patient, and follow his instructions. Even though the process took a very long time, and the end of the day , patience paid off. Jen , his assistant is very good. We could reach her at any time during work hours, she always replied our questions, willing to speak to us and is very polite. We got our green card a few days ago, and we were very pleased and thankful that all our efforts, time and money paid off. I will definitely recommend Mr Peter Messersmith.

I got attorney Peter Messersmith's name from my best friend. Attorney Peter Messersmith applied for an NIW through entrepreneur for my best friend. It was supposed to be really hard to get such cases approved but he got it approved quickly for my friend. My best friend only has great things to s...ay about attorney Peter Messersmith and told me that if there is one lawyer who can get my case approved it would have to be him. My boyfriend and I came to the US on L1 visas but our employer can't sponsor us for EB1C green cards. I heard about EB1A but I know that it's super hard to secure an approval. We scheduled a time to speak to attorney Peter Messersmith. He explained to us about the process and told us that my boyfriend had a better case and my case was not good. You can tell from talking to him that he's an expert in this area. Since we do not plan to get married anytime soon so we plan to apply separately. I asked attorney Peter Messersmith to take my case and I want to give it a try and I will not blame him in anyway if it doesn't go well. He said that the only possibility for a positive result is that we work together and produce as many supporting documents as possible. We each signed an agreement right after we spoke to him. We were happy that he doesn't charge hourly. He sent us a lot of materials after we signed up. We followed all of his instructions and listened every single advice from him. The help we received from him is priceless. He returned all of our many phone calls and responded to all of our many emails. He’s a big name lawyer but he never ignored us. His secretary was very nice too. My boyfriend got his documents quicker than mine so his case was filed one month before mine. His case was approved in 4 months and my case was approved about 6 and half months. Neither of us received a request for more evidence. The services we received were exceptional and were above and beyond our expectations. If you want a lawyer who can get your case approved, he’s the one! He diligently worked on our cases personally throughout the whole process. Attorney Peter Messersmith is an extraordinary lawyer! He's the one who can help you achieve your immigration dreams!
