Katya Stelmakh

Had a really good experience working with Stelmakh & Associates for my EB1A petition. What I appreciated most was that they didn’t just collect documents and file the case — they actually worked with me on how to make my application stronger. They gave honest and practical feedback on what to incl...ude, what to leave out, and how to present my achievements in the best way. That kind of guidance really matters for EB1A. The process definitely takes time and effort, but once you have a strong profile, having an experienced team helps a lot in moving things forward smoothly. My case got approved without any RFE, which was a huge relief. Would definitely recommend Stelmakh & Associates to anyone applying for EB1A.

Before finding Katya and her team, I had been working with another attorney who essentially put my case on hold. Months passed, nothing moved, and I was left searching for someone who would actually do the work. A friend who had their EB-1A approved through Stelmakh & Associates referred me to them.... I have been waiting for this day for a long time: my I-140 is approved! This achievement would not have been possible without Katya's leadership, Jessica’s well-thought-out draft, and Sam’s efficient oversight. This is a lifetime milestone for my family and me, and we are extremely grateful to you and your entire team. While client-attorney relationships can often feel transactional, this team's dedication has been a true blessing for us. If you are a data science or technology professional considering EB-1A and want a team that will truly show up for you, you just found them.

We turned to Stelmakh & Associates LLC by recommendation, and it was the best decision we could have made. Over the past three years, we have navigated a long journey together, resulting in multiple approved cases: my husband’s O-1 extraordinary ability visa, my O-3 dependent visa, followed by our EB...-1 approval, and finally, our Green Cards. It has been an eventful adventure. Over these years, global political shifts and changes in immigration policy added complexity to the process. However, the team’s professionalism kept us moving steadily toward our goal. Even when the consulate unexpectedly lost our medical exams and some documents, the firm handled it with resilience and guided us through every hurdle. Our experience proves that Stelmakh & Associates doesn't just deliver a single success; they demonstrate consistent results and a steadfast commitment through multiple approved petitions. This speaks volumes about their unwavering expertise. We express our deepest gratitude to Katya Stelmakh and every staff member who contributed to our case. With great respect and warmth, we highly recommend Stelmakh & Associates LLC to anyone seeking top-tier immigration legal support. You are in great hands!

I met them after 4 denials with my previous attorney. I was skeptical going in. Olga took over my case, and it was approved on the first attempt, in 4 days after filing. To your point about feeling rushed... there's a difference between a firm that's sloppy and fast vs. one that's efficient becaus...e they actually know what they're doing. If you have concerns, raise them directly. Their attorneys are always honest and responsive. Hope that helps, and good luck with your case!

I was referred to Stelmakh & Associates by a friend, and from the very first conversation with Katya, I understood why they are so highly recommended. My brother and I are co-founders of a tech startup in the ticketing and experience space, while also working in Hawaii, growing our family's spa bu...siness across multiple locations. Balancing entrepreneurship, a growing business, and the complexities of immigration is no small thing. Katya and her team approached my O-1A case with real care and attention. They didn't just process paperwork — they took the time to understand who I am, what I've built, and where I'm headed. I had full confidence every step of the way, and the approval came through. If you're an entrepreneur or founder navigating the U.S. immigration process, I recommend Katya and her team. Really loved working with them.
