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.

Great Experience on NIW Petition

I got to know Michael when he was assigned to my EB2-NIW application by Ellis Porter PLC and I consider him to be a good attorney. While working on my case, he was very professional. He would patiently respond to my many inquiries and communicate promptly the progress of my application with me. What ...amazed me the most was that he and his team went out of their way to research about my area of proposed endeavor and gathered more supporting cases, some of which I had not imagine, to support my application. Together, they prepared an outstanding application for me such that my petition was approved by USCIS without RFE within seven and a half months. Retaining ELP, and particularly working with Michael was worth it for me, and I have recommended (and would continue to recommend) him and the firm to my friends.

O1A petition

Michael and his team from Ellis Porter worked with me on my O1A petition. His team’s guidance, timeliness, and support were key in the success of my case, without any RFE! They very carefully read my credentials and presented the best options to help me. Michael is an extremely knowledgeable, thoroug...h, and hard-working attorney. He was always available to answer any of my quarries. My petition got accepted within 5 days of submission. It was a GREAT experience working with him. I would highly recommend Michael to anyone considering applying for any immigration case.
