Approvals for both NIW and EB1A I-140 petitions

Michael provided outstanding support in obtaining approvals for both NIW and EB1A I-140 petitions without any RFEs. His meticulous and organized briefs effectively showcased my background, qualifications, and experience, meeting the criteria for EB1A and NIW. I highly recommend Michael for employment...-based immigration assistance and express gratitude for his exceptional service. Also, special thanks to Jake, the paralegal who worked with Michael on my case.

Review regarding I-140 Petition

Hello, I worked with Mr. Michael Linn and Mr. Jake Hofer as my lawyer and paralegal to file an I-140 petition. My initial petition was filed within ~almost 2 months of starting our work together. My case received an RFE for all the prongs. We worked together and got the final approval by r...esponding to the RFE. During the process, Mr. Linn and Mr. Hofer showed professionalism and handled the case with a clear plan. I would recommend working with them as they know what they are doing. Thanks.

Exceptional support and Got I-140 Petition approved with Premium in just 5 days

It was wonderful working with Michael Linn for my NIW case. I opted for the expedited process and no recommendation letter were needed. My case was complied and filed in just <30 days. He is one of the best lawyers I have ever worked with. The documentation which he and his team provided for my NIW ...was very comprehensive. Before reaching Ellis porter, I had only a limited knowledge on NIW process. To understand wholly, I had an initial call with Michael and he clearly explained the complex process. Listening to his approach I was quite impressive and later the supportive documents that were presented for my case were extraordinary. He and his team actually took the time to learn about my area of expertise, research, and areas of interest, my previous achievements, degrees that I earned, publications before putting together an exceptional petition for my case. The petition's supporting materials are perfectly suited for the case, and they clearly shown why my work is nationally important and why is has sustainable merit.  Additionally, as part of their service I usually received timely responses to my queries from him, and he is really dedicated to his profession. He works very quickly, and I received the initial draft of my legal brief in little less than two weeks with high quality. I was suggested by two of my friends who worked with Michael Linn in the past and received green cards recently. To help others, similarly I heartily recommend him to my other friends and those still waiting out there and searching for a good lawyer. I would like to repeat saying that, really, really, really Michael did a wonderful job for my case. Even though you have a solid profile, it still isn't enough. You need assistance with creating an outstanding petition, and Michael Stephen Linn from 'Ellis Porter' will do it for you.

Michael and his team at Ellis Porter Group did an exceptional job guiding and preparing my NIW case. Their expertise allowed us to submit my I-140 request promptly, even within a tight timeframe. Their responsiveness was remarkable, consistently providing prompt replies during regular working hours. ...Their competence and dedication to their work are evident, and I wholeheartedly recommend the high-quality services of Michael and the Ellis Porter Group team for immigration matters.
