About Jonathan
Biography
Before joining Ellis Porter, John worked as an Attorney in Ann Arbor, Michigan in the high-skilled immigration field and played a key role in managing the legal strategies for thousands of EB-1A, EB-1B, EB-2 NIW and O-1 cases.
In the course of managing this high volume of applications, John soon realized that personally-customized EB-1A, EB-1B, EB-2 NIW and O-1 strategies consistently get better results than using a one-size-fits-all template approach, and this inspired him to co-found Immigration Advocates, PLLC with David Allen and Andy Ingebritson in July 2017. The firm's mission was to enhance each client's experience and improve case outcomes by focusing more on truly understanding their unique professional achievements, and then developing personally-customized case strategies that highlight those achievements in the most compelling way.
Ellis Porter shares this philosophy, so it made perfect sense for John and his attorney colleagues to join forces with Ellis Porter to create our High-Skilled Immigration Services team.
Outside the office, John enjoys spending time with his family, and spending time outdoors biking, running and hiking. He also enjoys sneaking in a good book about history, politics or law whenever possible.

I-140 was approved
My colleague introduces Jonathan D. Goslow. I'm so lucky to have prepared my I-140 with him. I'm so grateful and appreciative of his experience of my case. The process was swift. I signed with EP in November 2022 and filed I-140 with USCIS in April 2023. My case was approved after one week. Thank you...

Awesome job!
Jonathan and I worked together on my case for the I-140 form. His instructions have always been detailed and precise, easy to follow. The process was smooth, and my I-140 form was approved without RFE. Also, always available for clarifications. Highly recommended!

EB2-NIW Approval
I was already talking to another attorney for my EB2-NIW application when a colleague introduced me to Ellis porter and Jonathan. While the previous lawyer insisted on supporting my application with reference letters (Trying to play safe and of course, this adds to the total cost) after Jonathan eval...

I have tremendous appreciation and gratitude for Jonathan, who led my case’s preparation, and for his colleagues and paralegals who assisted in preparing both the initial pe...
Jonathan D. Goslow's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have worked with a lot of immigration lawyers around the US and when it comes to High-Skilled Immigration (EB-1A, EB-1B, EB-2 NIW, and O-1 visas), John and his team at Ellis Porter are among the very best! I have litigated incorrect denials of EB-1, EB2 and O-1 cases and when I get a rare denial of an Ellis Porter case, the work is always exemplary. These lawsuits usually result in USCIS implicitly admitting their mistake when they reopen and approve the requested green card. I cannot recommend John Goslow and Ellis Porter enough!"
