Peter Messersmith

Several of my friends got their green cards from attorney Peter Messersmith and only had great things to say about him. I was on L1 visa and came to an end but my employer wasn't willing to sponsor me for a green card due to the company financing issues. I spoke to a few attorneys before I got his ...name but none of the attorneys I spoke to believed that I had a decent case. I was very depressed and it seems impossible to me at the time. I contacted attorney Peter Messersmith. After looking over my CV, he told me that he has gotten similar cases approved for the EB1 in the past after he helped them strengthen their cases but he also recommended me to pursue an NIW as a back up as EB1 is the hardest category to get approved. Initially I thought that the fee was a little high for me but adding in NIW is not that much more so I listened to him and did both. It turned out it worthed every penny I spent. He's very thorough and gave me very clear instructions on how to gather everything. When I have questions, he's usually brief but pinpoint to the questions. Although emails and phone communications are all included in our agreement, I know I may have called and emailed way too much after numerous calls and hundreds of emails. The amazing thing is that he never made me feel that I took up too much of his time. He's always extremely patient and nice which I truly appreciate very much. I know that he's very busy and must have many other clients who were also nervous about their cases. Throughout the process he put into so much effort and I can tell he really cares. Many documents he helped me to gather turn out to be a defining point to get my cases approved. I went through the regular EB1 process to try to save some money. After a few month waiting, I decided to go with premium processing. My case was approved in less than a week. Two weeks after my EB1 was approved, I received my NIW approval. No RFE for either case. My family and I received our green cards right after the NIW approval. Thanks a million to attorney Peter Messersmith! I'm grateful that he was willing to take my case and he made it work when I didn't see a way. I lived in New York at the time but planed a trip to meet him with my family and just want to thank him in person and also to see Chicago. He's very nice and humble and thanked me for following his instructions so he was able to make a successful case. I referred him to two of my colleagues seeking immigration help and their cases were recently approved as well. I would highly recommend him to anyone who is looking for an attorney who can make impossible to possible. If you want a miracle in your case, I highly recommend you to seek attorney Peter Messersmith's help!

I decided to apply for a green card through NIW and my friends, who successfully obtained GC, recommended Peter as an immigration lawyer. Peter and his staff showed themselves as highly motivated and attentive professionals. He helped in completing the forms, proofreaded the recommendations and was e...asily accessible via email or phone when I had questions. Under his guidance I quickly obtained the green card. I would highly recommend Peter for any immigration matters.

I was referred to Peter by a good friend after my EB1 was denied by my previous attorney. I was devastated as I only had three months left on my H1B and I had been waiting for the EB1 to be approved over a year. I can't believe that it was denied after over a year waiting! I approached Peter. My... first impression of him is that he's very honest, professional and trustworthy. He pointed out the weakness in my cases. He said that he'll try his best to get it approved although he can't guarantee. We had to file EB1 through premium processing as not much time left to go through regular processing. His fee is very reasonable. He got my EB1 approved in 5 days!!! I was speechless and in tears. I really can't believe this could happen to me. I received my green card in 23 days after filing. Words can't express how much I thank Peter! He truly changed my life for the best. I have been telling all of my colleagues and friends who need immigration services to seek Peter's help. Peter is definitely the attorney to go to when you need immigration help. Peter is definitely the best immigration attorney!!!

I hired Peter as my lawyer for my NIW case and he did a very good job and got the case approved in about 15 months. He is confident, professional, and knowledgeable. He helped me with all my questions patiently. He helped me to even make my case stronger to increase the chance of getting approved. I ...highly recommend him.

Mr. Messersmith left no stone unturned and worked diligently on my Immigration case. He got me my Greencard in a very timely manner- actually sooner than I expected. He made the whole process so smooth for me, and thoroughly guided me along the way. He always answered my emails promptly and made time... to talk to me on the phone. He took care of all the paperwork- all I had to do was sign. He is very knowledgeable,respectful,trustworthy and kept me well informed on my case. Getting a Greencard was a breeze because of him. His price was very affordable too. As an immigrant,I am so glad to have found such a good lawyer like Mr.Messersmith. I am going to choose him for citizenship also, as well as recommend him for my relatives and friends. Also, even though I do not live in Chicago, it did not matter. We were able to communicate just fine through email and phone, and my case progressed smoothly and now I have a Greencard. I would not have seen this day without the help of Mr.Messersmith. He is very kind and humble also, and very easy to communicate. He is very understanding of immigrants and the problems we face everyday.
