Best EB2 NIW attorney you could work with.

Joey and his team were amazing with my NIW petition. I was overall concerned about the low citations, but I had an impact in other ways, which Joey helped me highlight in my application. After I got an RFE and felt discouraged, Joey's team was extremely helpful in putting together a very robust respo...nse. Overall, I could not have asked for better representation. He has done amazing work, and the communication was timely and easy to follow.

EB2-NIW I-140 approved: Highly recommend Joey.

Joey and his team did an amazing job with my EB2-NIW packet and my I-140 was approved without an RFE. He was always straight-forward and prompt in answering all of my questions. I was also very impressed with the amount of effort and research that the team put into preparing my application packet. I ...will definitely recommended Joey to anybody who is in the market for a lawyer but unsure about where to start.

EB2-NIW Approved Date: 7/29/25 to 8/5/2025

Joseph did an outstanding job! He included only the documents that were necessary, focusing on quality rather than quantity. His work was efficient but never rushed, and he always concentrated on highlighting the aspects of my work that demonstrated its national importance. The documents he prepared ...were clear and easy to understand, without overwhelming details or unnecessary information. I highly recommend Joseph. He was consistently prompt in his responses and showed remarkable patience throughout the process, always making sure we were aligned on what we were doing and why. His professionalism and attention to detail made the entire experience smooth and reassuring.

EB2 NIW (Applied: 05/23/2025 | I-140 Approved: 07/15/2025)

My I-140 petition was handled by Joey Leverence and his colleague Shaq Stephenson at Ellis Porter. We’re really grateful for their help with preparing the documents and supporting us throughout the process. They were very professional and easy to work with. I was especially impressed with how they... highlighted my expertise for the national interest waiver, even though my field is still emerging globally. They did a great job digging deep into the topic and understanding the importance of my work. I truly appreciate the detailed and well-referenced report they prepared using relevant scientific journals. Their responses were always quick, and they offered solutions and suggestions whenever I had questions. Joey was consistently supportive and responsive during the entire process. I highly recommend their service to anyone looking for help with skilled immigration. They’re dedicated, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about what they do.

EB2- NIW expedited Approval

I’m incredibly grateful to Joey and the entire team at Ellis Porter for their outstanding support and guidance throughout my expedited NIW petition. Their deep knowledge, attention to detail, and responsiveness made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. Joey was always ...approachable and clear in his communication, and I truly felt that my case was in the right hands from start to finish. Thanks to their expertise, my NIW petition was approved much faster than expected. I highly recommend Joey and the team to anyone seeking reliable and dedicated immigration counsel.
