Lidia Alexandra Yar Lawson

I hired Ms. Lawson and her team for my EB-1 case and I am happy I did. Lidia took a creative approach and created a winning strategy on how to best present my accomplishments in the field of business. Considering the current immigration climate, my case was approved after an extensive request for e...vidence. USCIS approved within one week after submitting the response via Premium Processing. Now we are waiting on our green cards in the US, thank you Lawson Law.

I hired Ms. Lawson to obtain extraordinary ability visa in choreography, visa O-1B based on my international achievements. We prepared the mounds of documents within three months, working tirelessly on both ends. You just never know how much documentation you would need for such a visa. Despite supp...ort from Lidia, it was still overwhelming process and over 3,000 pages were the result of the labour. Finally, the O-1 visa was approved and Lidia prepared me and my family for the interview at the embassy. The interview process was horrifying, but I was prepared for the worst, as Ms. Lawson described several instances of interviews turn interrogations. Luckily, being prepared helped me answer all questions informatively and not be too nervious. The entire process took 6 months after USCIS approved my petition and interview was granted. In my opinion, if it was not for the expertise of a knowledgeable attorney and preparation for the interview, things may not have worked out the way I hoped. Thank you.

I hired Lawson Law for my investor E-2 visa. As an entrepreneur, my startup was in the process of getting ready to start operations, pending visa situation. Many attorneys turned me down because my investment amount was less than $150,000. Lidia took my case and made a strong case for why my busine...ss required a smaller funding and with market research and business plan she prepared, USCIS did not question this issue. She layed out a strategy and a step by step as to how I need to proceed with money transfer, funding, spending on the US company, etc, so that I would have the proper documentation to show USCIS that meetst the criteria. I am glad I did not give up and talked to one more lawyer who was knowledgeable and thorough. My case was approved without RFE and I have started my business operations in the US.

I am an award winning choreographer and have been to the US several times on professional occasions. Since then, my dream was to move to the US and continue my professional career here, raise my family with better opportunities. One of my friends who received an O-1 visa through her firm, recommended... that I contact the offices of Lidia Lawson, which I am happy I did. Ms. Lawson spent nearly two hours on my initial consultation and answered much of my questions on the process. Other lawyers I spoke with were not as providing with information about the process. It was important for me to have the change of status processed within the US, where I was at the time. Lawson Law offices prepared a strong case strategy that first showcased my talents, achievements, awards and other evidence and focused her arguments on highlighting the required achievements. My paralegal assisted with documentation gathering and was there to answer my questions. As a team effort, we prepared and submitted the petition within three months and received an approval within 6 days. I have since received my green card and plan to open my own studio. Thank you for holding my hand through the most stressful process in my life and of course, for the amazing outcome!

I was referred to Ms. Lawson by another attorney. She told me Lidia was one of the best she had ever worked with, and that she could help me through my complicated case. She was professional, kind, empathetic and candid and did an excellent job of dealing with additional complications of my current v...isa status. I could not asked for a better support through one of the most difficult times in my life, both exciting and terrifying. She was able to lay out a strategy that would ensure I do not violate my current visa status but also take advantage of another employment opportunity. My employer's lawyer did not warn me about all limitations of my employment, volunteering and other nuances that Ms. Lawson was aware of and warned me before I potentially jeopardized my visa status. She worked with my current and potential employers to figure out how to share my time and filed a cap exempt H1B for the secondary teaching opportunity, which would have not been possible on my current visa. She was the only one who went the extra mile to work with all interested parties and agree on a solution which was the best for me and my family. Thanks to Lidia I did not have to chose between two opportunities and now I have a smart strategy in place for future adjustment.
