Great immigration attorney

Thomas Arkell is a great attorney! He and his team are very experienced in NIW/EB petition. Thomas Arkell evaluated my case to make sure I had good chances for a successful outcome. His professional fees are very reasonable. I highly recommend Thomas Arkell and the Dunnlaw firm for permanent res...idency petitions.

AOS, Green Card, NIW

I applied for and successfully obtained a green card through the National Interest Waiver (NIW) program. I hired Mr. Arkell as my attorney to represent me in my application. Mr. Arkell and the Dunn Law Firm were extremely helpful throughout the process. Their office is very professional and extremely... efficient. They responded to my numerous questions and requests promptly, often within an hour! I always found their advice very helpful. I highly recommend their services.

EB2 - NIW

I had a challenging case, and I contacted several lawyers, including the two famous Chinese-sound immigration law firms, which asked me for extra $5000-$10,000 when they understood they need to work on my case. I found Mr. Arkell's team very professional, and knowledgeable, and as a picky client, t...here is absolutely nothing for me to complain. I got my green card approved very smoothly (in March 2018) and the whole process took only about 8 months. I highly recommend Mr. Arkell as a great immigration lawyer.

Outstanding Immigration Attorney; Excellent Service

Prior to being introduced to Thomas Arkell, I already talked to two other immigration attorneys. The first would not even look at my credentials, just asked me my year of graduation and then went on a monologue of how I should wait and get more experiences, bla bla bla. I went back to him about a yea...r later and had the exact experience with him again. The other one simply asked me to send him my documents and he will evaluate and get back to me. Well, for a period of about seven months, I couldn't get anything concrete out of him, only a contract to sign which of course I did not sign. My reprieve came when I was introduced to Thomas Arkell. I had a very wonderful experience with Dunn Law Firm. My wife needed to have employment authorization for summer internship, so after evaluating our case Mr Arkell advised that we file concurrent I-140 and I-485 so that I-765 can also be filed instead of going the F1 route from H4. My NIW was approved in four (4) months without any RFE and the I-485 (filed concurrently) was approved 3 months later. I have already recommended Dunn Law Firm to my friends and they are all full of praises about the wonderful job these guys do. One of my friends got his H1B through Dunn Law and he is very satisfied with their service. I recommend Dunn Law to anyone who desires immigration attorney services that will give you peace of mind while going through the months of waiting and paranoia that comes with all the 'what ifs' that usually cross ones mind during the period.

NIW petition

I was introduced to Dunn Law and Mr. Arkell through a friend of mine who had worked with the firm on her successful permanent residence petition. Initially I had a few choices between various law firms but Dunn Law was highly recommended by my friend and my initial phone conversation and subsequent e...mails gave me more confidence about the service I would get. They also had given me a very reasonable service fee compared to other firms, so I decided to file my petition through Dunn Law. The initial consultation, which consisted of me sending my CV over and a 20-minute phone conversation, was free of charge, which was very helpful. At the time, I was a PhD student with multiple manuscripts in preparation and Mr. Arkell advised me to wait for a few months to publish those as well and receive more citations from my previous publications and to make my application stronger. I talked to Mr. Arkell a few months later and this time he deemed my application strong enough to file for NIW. The preparation of the required documents was relatively quick. In my opinion, Mr. Arkell’s team had a streamlined process, which was mostly done electronically. Their service was prompt and on-point, which saved a lot of time. I am completely satisfied with my experience working with this law firm. Several of my friends have worked with Mr. Arkell and his staff and they have all expressed positive views of their work ethics. I am happy with my decision to select this firm and I highly recommend their service.
