I was worried my NIW petition will be denied because of my weak profile. Jim proved me wrong, and I am so, so happy that he did.

Out of the dozen or so attorneys I reached out to for my EB2 NIW consultation last year, Jim was the only one to speak with me for over half-hour over the phone. His expert knowledge, down-to-earth honesty, and accessibility--not to mention the calm voice of his--led to me instantly terminating my th...en-relationship with another attorney so that I could instead be represented by Jim. Looking back, this is probably the best decision I’ve made in my life given the stake I had in this process. Over the course of two months that followed, I worked extensively with Jim and Kayla (the practice manager) to prepare my petition and the evidence documents. Everyone moved very quickly and judiciously: the time left for filing was quickly running out because of the impending expiry of my F-1 OPT status (which is entirely on me and my late discovery of Dunn Law Firm). But everything was taken care of eventually, with Jim personally handing me over the tracking information for the petition mail. He and Kayla also helped me with getting an expedited approval for the EAD/AP combo card, which was a huge relief as my savings were quickly dwindling at the time. And after nearly an 11-month wait, my NIW petition was approved without an RFE (!) and, in less than 3 months thereafter, my adjustment of status was approved! Thanks to Jim and his team, I now get to finally see the end of the tunnel that I've been traveling for the past 20 years (I’m not kidding) in the US, worrying about the possibility of having to leave the country and my family behind due to status issue. With this review, I wanted to make my sincerest thanks to Jim, Kayla, and the staff at Dunn Law Firm public for all to see and have it be a testament to their unparalleled professionalism. Take it from me—I was never a likely candidate for approval based on my relatively weak profile: just a master’s degree holder with 3 publications and 7 citations at the time of filing. It must have been a heavy lift to convince the USCIS to give me a green card, but Jim pulled out off. With the results to show for it, I will recommend him to my friends and acquaintances with utmost enthusiasm. Jim has made my dream of staying and working in the US a reality; I hope you seriously consider him for business.

Thank you so, so much, Jim!

Excellent Lawyer. Expertise and Commitment.

Dunn Law Firm was indicated to me by a friend after I had a bad experience with my previous law firm. I made a contact with Mr. Jim Arkell by email which was answered by him immediately. After some remote meetings, we decided to work on an EB1-A petition. The entire process was made carefully by all ...the Dunn's team. Mr. Jim was responsible to write and revise the most relevant documents for the case. He demonstrated very intelligence, expertise, and commitment. He studied the case in detail and always made suggestions and requests clearly. The EB1-A petition got approval without any RFE. Thanks to Mr. Jim Arkell and the Dunn's team (Mr. Thomas Arkell and Ms. Kayla Clark) for believing and taking care of my case.

EB2-NIW

I did my EB-2 NIW petition with Dunn Law Firm while doing my Ph.D. after being recommended by a friend of mine. My case was handled by Mr. Jim Arkel and his paralegal, Ms. Kayla Clark. My petition was approved very fast while I’m doing my Ph.D. and without any REF. The way that Jim and his team h...andled my case, considering all the paperwork, processes, and system, is just perfect and professional. They have responded to all of my questions promptly and provided me with all clarification that I needed. In particular, I was really happy with the competitive attorney fees and payment options that Dunn Law Firm provided me which is very convenient for me as a student. The work that Dunn Law firm did for my NIW deserves every dollar that I spent. My overall experience with Jim and the Dunn Law firm is just pleasant. All of my friends who did their NIW with Jim got their EB2-NIW approved without REF. I have recommended Jim to a couple of friends and will continue to strongly recommend others who need similar services.

NIW petition

Jim Arkell was recommended to me by one of my friends who has used the Dunn law firm for his NIW petition. The recommendation was a highly positive one. After much research of my own, I decided to go with the Dunn law firm for my NIW petition. My experience was very positive. Right from the beginning..., I was made aware of what the NIW petition would involve. They handled my NIW application in a very timely manner and promptly answered any questions I had along the way. My I-140 has been approved. Thank you Dunn law firm! I highly recommend Jim Arkell.
