EB-2-NIW

first reached out to Jim Arkell in 2019 when I was starting my PhD program and interested in the EB-2 NIW visa. I provided my resume, detailed my research experience, and outlined my future plans. Jim responded positively, noting that I was on the right track but needed more experience. Taking his a...dvice to heart, I focused on gaining the necessary experience over the following years to strengthen my case. By 2022, I had published more research papers and increased the citations of my work. Confident in my progress, I contacted Jim again. This time, he confirmed that I was ready to apply. Jim and his team provided unwavering support, answering all my questions, for which I am truly grateful. The length of my application process was as expected, and I received my green card approval without an interview. I believe this success is due to the excellent job Jim and his team did in demonstrating the importance and relevance of my work to the United States. I cannot thank them enough for their invaluable support.

EB2 Visa Petition approved

Mr. Arkell was very candid with me from the beginning. He presented me with hard evidence and the road to follow for success. What I liked about his firm is they wouldn’t accept a hopeless case just for the sake of it. They simply wouldn’t accept some of my friends who hadn’t had what it would take ...for the road ahead. So no, they are not scamming people for money. They are timely, precise and always an email ahead. One thing I would have liked more may be a phone contact here and there. Constant correspondence via email (written evidence) carries more traction and momentum for the case. If you think you have what it takes for EB2, Mr. Arkell is the person cut out for it. They don’t promise you the moon just to walk out on you in the middle of the launchpad. So be real and honest, they will take care of the rest.

Highly recommend

My experience with Mr. Arkell and his team was just smooth and great. Applying for and getting a green card takes time and needs lots of patience, so working with a well-experienced and communicative lawyers and team (Mr. Arkell!) is very important. Overall - I highly recommend them. Thank you for... helping me with this. - Strength: 1. Very communicative 2. highly experienced 3. friendly and kind staffs - Weakness: None

Great service! Recommend 100%

I used attorney Arkell's service for an EB-2 NIW application, which he recommended as a first step towards permanent residency for my profile. Jim and his team (Kayla in particular) were incredibly helpful and responsive, taking time to answer all my questions in great detail. I had an introductory ...call with Jim Arkell, where he laid out the main options for my Green Card application (mainly EB-1 and EB-2 NIW), recommending that we pursue EB-2 as it would be more likely to succeed, despite requiring longer time for approval. He was very reassuring and he saw great chances of my case being approved. After filing I-140, we did discuss going down the EB-1 path in parallel, as an alternative in case EB-2 would take too long, but he was very honest in suggesting that I do not invest my money in an additional application. His recommendation was for me to wait and have confidence in the EB-2 application, which was eventually approved without RFE! Wait time for the NIW was 9 months, in line with the expectations set by the firm at the start of the process (maybe closer to the higher end of the range). I am very grateful to attorney Arkell and his team for taking on my case and making it a strong one. Looking forward to relying on his services for the Adjustment of Status.

A Great Lawyer

Attorney Jim has been absolutely phenomenal. His years of expertise and knowledge in the NIW cases has made my NIW petition process exceptionally smooth. Jim and his legal team at Dunn Law Firm (Kayla and Brittany) have been very thorough, extremely responsive and willfully guided me every step of t...he way from filling applications to case approval. I was fortunate enough to have their support during the whole process, leading to the positive outcome. I am genuinely grateful. Certainly, I wholeheartedly recommend Jim for his immigration services.
