Margaret R. Morris

Avoid Margaret Morris. I hired Chenhalls Nissen to file my EB-1 petition sponsored by a university. After over a year of delays, minimal communication (responses only came after I copied senior staff), and unfulfilled promises, I received a draft petition with the following errors: the wrong unive...rsity name on page 1 of the USCIS cover letter, repeated wrong pronouns carried over from another client's file, internal draft notes left in the document, a typo in a journal name, a misspelled country, and an incomplete sentence. These are not minor typos, they are evidence of a petition built from a template that was not carefully reviewed or customized for my case. The entire purpose of EB-1 is to expedite the process. The delays alone defeated that purpose. The quality of the work made it impossible to approve for filing. Specifically, I would avoid Margaret Morris. Over the course of a year she went silent for months at a time, made promises she did not keep, and when she finally delivered a draft it was full of errors from another client's file. When I documented these errors and requested a refund, she went silent again — leaving her supervising attorney to apologize on her behalf, issue a refund, and take over the case personally. I share this so other international scholars, for whom the stakes of an immigration filing could not be higher, can make an informed decision.
