I-140 case preparation

I am very much happy to work with Michael for preparing the case. He is very responsive. The case preparation using the information in my first legal brief draft was really excellent. I like the exhibits that he added to justify the importance of my research. I think, that helped to get approval of m...y case. Overall, it was an excellent experience to work with Michael and high group.

EB2-NIW approval without RFE

I signed the contract with Michael on 8/11/2023 and he is able to send my NIW petition package on 9/8/2023 and got approval on 9/14/2023 without any RFE! Michael always respond my message in two hours and prepare my case carefully. He is able to prepare the package and collect all the exhibit in aro...und a week once he has gathered all information form you! I initially think I was a "weak case" given that I only have 19 citations in 6 journal, but Michael is able to prepare my case even without recommendation of letter and get approved ! Thanks Michael!

Highly Recommend Michael for I-140 Case

I strongly suggest Michael for his exceptional representation in an I-140 case. He responded promptly to my messages and was always willing to provide clear and concise answers to my inquiries. Michael was able to simplify the process and avoid requesting any additional documentation, which was a rel...ief for me.

Navigating Success: NIW (EB2) with Michael Linn

Recently I completed my NIW journey with Ellis Porter (EP). I had an excellent experience of working with attorney Michael Lin. I took expedited service from EP and got my NIW approved within 105 days. First, when I started my NIW journey with Michael, I had little knowledge about the process. M...ichael carefully took the time to go through the process step by step. He always replied to my queries within a few hours for what I could submit within a few weeks after I started to prepare my case. Second, Michael was meticulous about all my documents submitted, and he always tried to incorporate even a small contribution into the case to make the case strong. This is really impressive to me where other lawyers only go with the traditional approach of what they already knew. Finally, it's not just about my paperwork; it's about feeling supported. Michael took the time to get to know my situation and tailored his approach accordingly. He made me feel like I mattered, and that meant a lot. I'm happy to recommend Michael Linn to anyone needing immigration help. He's the real deal–professional, knowledgeable, and totally committed. Thanks, Michael, for turning my dreams into reality!
