Working with Katya and her team at Stelmakh & Associates has been an outstanding experience. After an unsuccessful EB1 application through my employer's legal firm, one of my friends referred me to Stelmakh & Associates and i retained them for my self petition They impressed me with their strategic, ...proactive approach, ensuring we maximized every aspect of my career achievements in the petition. Katya and her team were extremely thorough in building a solid case, leveraging my critical role at Yelp & my startup, media features on my work, and my scholarly contributions. They ensured applying with the right domain to connect my work. The team’s collaborative style and commitment to my success made the process smooth and reassuring. I’m grateful for the dedication and expertise they brought to my case, which led to approval within months. I highly recommend Stelmakh & Associates to anyone pursuing their EB-1A - they truly go above and beyond!

I found out about Katya Stelmakh from a friend in February last year and immediately contacted her. I had experience with other lawyers who did not have clear process of reviewing my case, would not be transparent about the fees and would drag my time without fast response. Katya immediately reviewed... my case and clearly stated all steps forward. She was open about any possible problems going forward. We had a few arguments along the way about the approach and who does what, but eventually we all as a the team worked together for final result. I got my EB-1 visa approved within 12 days and received my work authorization in 2 months after submission of the documents. At the moment I am waiting for my green card to be issued. I highly recommend Katya and her team!

I had the pleasure of working with Katya Stelmakh to obtain my O1 visa, and I couldn't be more impressed with their professionalism and expertise. From the beginning, she guided me through the entire process with exceptional clarity and dedication. Her knowledge of the O1 visa requirements is truly i...mpressive, and they ensured that every step was handled with precision. What stood out the most was her personalized approach. She and her team took the time to understand my situation and provided tailored advice that made all the difference in my case. Communication was smooth, and they were readily available to answer any questions or concerns I had along the way. Thanks to Stelmakh & Associates, the visa process was successful. I highly recommend them to anyone seeking assistance with an O1 visa or any other immigration needs!

I reached out to Stelmakh & Associates in 2023 with the daunting task of securing an O-1A visa as an entrepreneur. I had some funds raised and a decent profile, but I knew I needed expert guidance to navigate the process. A fellow entrepreneur recommended them, and I'm so glad I took the advice. F...rom day one, their team was incredibly supportive. They were always available to answer even the smallest questions, which made the whole process much less stressful. Over the course of a year, they helped me refine my profile, gather the right documents, and ultimately get my visa approved in 2024. I got my approval in 7-8 days. Thanks to their hard work, I am able to work on my company in the U.S. and travel freely to grow my company. I couldn’t have done it without them. If you're looking for a law firm that really knows what they're doing, especially for something as complex as an O-1A visa, I highly recommend Stelmakh & Associates.
