Jim Arkell

I retained the services of Mr Arkell in filing my EB2-NIW petition during the first COVID summer. The filing process was very smooth, and the Arkell team was detail-oriented, responsive, and prompt at each step of the process. I received my green card in 14 months from the time of submission (includi...ng 1-2 months extra time on my end while I was preparing my documents). Overall, I was very pleased with the services of the Arkell Immigration Team, and would be happy to recommend them to my friends.

First of all, I want to thank Jim for all his great help and assistance: Jim has been assisting my family and me not only on multiple immigration issues but also helped me write a very strong cover letter to apply for a job. He and his brother Mr. Tom Arkell worked very hard on my case, which was ...very complicated. However, with their support and writing skills gave my family and me a quick pass to get the GREEN CARD in less than 9 months. They are a very professional, efficient, honest law firm, and they are so friendly as well. Overall they are great immigration representatives, and I have no hesitation to HIGHLY recommend anyone in need of a professional firm who knows exactly what they are doing in a very short time with an understanding of your feelings; as you know, immigration issues are a very painful process, where everyone, including myself, can feel really powerless and hopeless. However, they are always positive; with their support and encouragement will make you happy and hopeful. In addition, you can reach them very quickly via phone or email. They always responded to my phone calls and emails right away. Thank you so much again for your great services and help.

I am very pleased about the services I obtained from Dunn Law Firm as they helped me to obtain a National Interest Waiver and an adjustment of status to become a Legal Permanent Resident in the United States! Jim successfully got me my green card within 13-months of filing during the midst of the COV...ID-19 pandemic—starting from a J-1 visa for a visiting scholar. Jim was an absolute pleasure to work with throughout the entire process. He explained everything thoroughly and set reasonable expectations for the time it would take for me to obtain the necessary approvals once my petition was submitted. Jim is an outstanding client advocate, his attention to detail, and his knowledge of the law ensured that my petition for the NIW clearly highlighted and successfully articulated the reasons why I should be approved to remain in the United States--despite my only having 24 citations and not yet having a paper as a first author at the time of my application. I was also very pleased that Jim was available for urgent consultations and that he offered workable and knowledgeable solutions to various issues that popped up during USCIS's review of my paperwork. It is very nerve-wracking to be asked for additional documents without knowing what is happening at USCIS, but Jim was excellent at explaining the typical process and the various steps the reviewers go through when processing the paperwork. I hired Jim because of his reputation for having in-depth knowledge of the law and his vast experience helping individuals from varied research and academic backgrounds, and I am so happy that I trusted him with my entire immigration case. I am very pleased, happy, and satisfied with the service I received from Jim and the Dunn Law Firm, and I highly recommended his services to anyone wishing to obtain a NIW and adjustment of status to obtain a green card. I will, of course, be returning when it is time to apply for citizenship!
