Excellent and Professional

I would highly recommend Mark for the services for the Green card and other valuable services. Mark is very knowledgeable in every aspects of immigration, and detailed. He is always approachable and you can call him anytime. Mark always there with you and answer your phone calls/emails. I would defin...itely recommend him if you are in need of any immigration services and hire again if I need any services further.

Great experience!

Great experience. A work friend recommended Mr. Mark Ashley. I hired him for a NIW and I-485 and got my green card in less than 2 years. When I hired him, he promised to treat my case as if it was his own. He was always available by phone or email and did a great job for me and my family. He was frie...ndly and approachable. He worked hard and was very helpful. I now recommend his services to my friends and colleagues. Thanks Mr. Ashley

Terrible service. Do not recommend

I hired Mark for my NIW EB2 visa processing. Mark showed serious lack of professionalism and efficiency. I ultimately lost the case, which could be due to my lack of publications, but was due to Mark's inability to handle the case. In the final denial letter USCIS specifically stated that the petit...ioner has failed to submit documents as requested. It was obviously the lawyer’s responsibility to read the RFE and submit documents. Mark made me produce total 10 letters for my NIW, 7 for original submission and 3 for RFE. He total spent 5 minutes of time for each letters. I wrote ALL the letters, and Mark barely taken a look at those and said “They are great” every time. When submitting the petition, Mark made me print out the letters and send those to him by mail because he ‘Does not have facility to print such a large scale!!!!’. Seriously, no joking, a lawyer is telling he cannot afford to print some documents. Overall, I am sure Mark worked no more than 3/4 hours for my case as he did nothing other than writing the 4 page cover letter. I came up with all the names for my referees, wrote all the letters, made contacts with referees, get the letters, printed and mailed those out to Mark. I have known another friend of mine who got NIW visa and his lawyer basically did all the work for him. Please do not be fooled by his cheap rate and waste your money like me. Get someone better and more knowledgeable. Mark will explain to you that your case is an obvious win and then it may be denied.

EB2 NIW application

I can consider my lawyer mr Mark Ashely an very experienced, knowledgeable lawyer and always wins case for the national interest waiver (NIW) application. When I first reach him for his services, he asked about my publication, citations, and other contributions I made in my field. What I notice is t...hat he got the right judgement to tell you whether your case has better chance to be approved. During my application, I was still at school and doing my PhD in water resource management in Texas A&M University and got past publications in journals. So he was optimist about my profile, and then we got into work. We have gone through lots of paper, what I can tell you is he is very quick in responding to your email and getting this done. More importantly, his delivers quality work which makes your case very strong. I felt confidence. He charges very reasonably so you get the best value for your money. I recommend Mr Mark Ashley wholeheartedly. Simply he is the best.
