Highly Knowledgeable! Effective! Very Responsive!

I highly recommend Michael Linn to those who are planning to apply for the NIW I-140. He is highly knowledgeable, effective, and very responsive to any concerns you have. It was a very straightforward process. They collected all the necessary documents by my side; as long as I submitted the documents... and information they requested, they started preparing the legal brief. In a very short time, he prepared the legal brief. It was very well written with supporting documents, and it proved how knowledgeable, effective, and committed he was to his job. With this, my I-140 got approved without the need for an RFE. I am very glad I got to work with lawyer Michael Linn, and I am very grateful to him, and I am very satisfied with his service. Also, I should mention the kind support from Jeremy Winograd (Paralegal) as well with this process. Further, I must mention attorney Jonathan Goslow, who identified me as a potential candidate for the NIW application, offered me a 100% full refund service if my case is denied, explained the full process in the beginning, and introduced my lawyer Michael Linn to handle my case. Overall, I am delighted and satisfied with the service from my lawyer Michael and Ellis Porter Law Firm.

Highly recommend! Knowledgeable and responsive!

I highly recommend Michael Linn for anyone looking to apply for EB-2 NIW. After reviewing my information, he determined my case was a strong one and recommended the expedited service. Michael explained the whole process in detail and made the process a better learning experience for me. Almost immedi...ately, after I retained him, he went straight on working on my case. He handled the whole process in a very efficient manner and we got the application submitted in a short time. During the process, he was also responsive to all my questions and concerns. I received an approval with no need for an RFE. I am very grateful for the help I received from Michael and highly satisfied with my experience. He is definitely a great attorney and I certainly do not hesitate to recommend him to anyone I know.

Great attorney for EB1-B I-140 application

Most of the immigration firms didn’t take my case and Ellis Porter came to my rescue. Jonathan reviewed my credentials and assigned my case to Michael. Michael was super quick in responding to my emails and all the questions I had. Most of the time response was within 24 hours. He helped me to draft ...the recommendation letters and wrote a solid petition letter to support my credentials and my research work. In spite his awesome work, unfortunately, I received a RFE but it was related more towards my employer and less on my credentials. RFE response was little delayed but it was from my employer side, and Michael was persistent to get the information from my employer. I received the approval and its all because of Michael and how he prepared my petition and RFE response. He is an expert, knows the process and I would definitely recommend him.

An extraordinary lawyer

I worked with Michael Linn for my I-140 petition. I contacted Ellis Porter about NIW and they assigned him as my lawyer. He was very helpful and efficient throughout the process- communicating, advising, collecting evidence, drafting legal brief. and preparing my package. Everything was super fast an...d smooth. I highly recommend him for I-140 cases.
