Katya is super knowledgeable and she answers all the questions in as much depth as possible. During my first meeting with her, when she first told me that I should get my O1 approved without much hiccups, it made a big difference to my morale. At this point, I had already met many other immigration t...eams but no one gave me the sense that this is actually doable. Her confidence helped me go through the arduous process with minimal stress. Her optimism which is rightfully rooted in her expertise was such a pillar of support for me. These are the things that might get generally overlooked when working with an immigration team but to have an immigration team that not only delivers but also is a net-positive to your mental health especially when you're dealing with a tough life-changing process like O1, EB1-A, H1-B, etc.. makes such a huge difference. Katya's work is very thorough and detailed. I have worked with immigration teams both at Google, Apple and the likes and I have to say that working with Katya definitely tops the list of effective + pleasant immigration support experiences. For anyone looking to hire an immigration team to work on their O1 VISA, I'd highly recommend Katya and her team. I have made countless recommendations already and I'd recommend working with her to anyone who needs immigration support!

Всем Казахам и другим русскоязычным! Мой путь к эммиграции начался еще с 2019г, когда мы напоролись на лже адвоката во Флориде, который запорол нам наш изначальный путь. Мы потеряли надежду, но в 2021г нашли Катю > Stelmakh Law Associates через гугл.. Решили попробовать с ней. И увидели сразу ее м...асштаб и серьезность к работе. В 2022г открыли бизнес и по всем рекомендациям Кати получили E2 investor визу для нашего маленького бизнеса. Отработав с 2022 почти 2года спустя внутри Америки недавно подали на EB2 NIW и также получили одобрение. Чудес не бывает, мы старались и работали показывали хорошие показатели, но я искренне верю что благодаря профессионализму Кати и ее опыту, наш иммиграционный путь в США подошел к концу, и Катя осталась по жизни нашим семейным иммиграционным адвокатом!

Благодарю Екатерину и её команду за превосходную работу! Когда потребовалась юридическая помощь, я провела несколько консультаций с разными адвокатами. И решила работать с Екатериной - её консультация показалась мне наиболее квалифицированной и детальной. Как итог - одобрение визы талантов и миграцио...нной петиции! Рекомендую Екатерину и надеюсь, что всё у вас получится!

Taking a shot at immigration to America initially seemed like a crazy and completely unattainable idea to me. The thought of immigrating to other countries didn't seem as daunting and appealing. I delved into the requirements for the talent green card (EB-1) in the States and realized that I actually... met many criteria. That's when I knew I needed a lawyer. So, I reached out to several top-rated lawyers on Avvo. They responded, and I was taken aback by the prices. Katya’s fees, considering her high rating, turned out to be the most reasonable, and we decided to work together. Katya analyzed my initial data and set a task to "fill in the gaps“ based on the criteria. It's not a quick process, but step by step, I started closing them. Besides meeting the criteria for the case, there were many other things I didn't even suspect. I had to establish an LLC in the United States, preregistering the EIN there, and create a business plan. The goal was to make it clear to the officers reviewing the case that I intended to continue working in America, not just relying on taxpayers. Katya also helped me with all this, providing instructions in addition to closing the criteria. After 10 months of work, we filed the case. The most nerve-wracking part for me began when we received a request for additional evidence (RFE). The officer nitpicked every detail. In a panic, I started detailing where, what, and how things were proved, even though I shouldn't have. But the anxiety had nowhere to go, turning into a detailed response to each of the officer's claims. I sent this document to Katya as the basis for drafting an official response to the RFE. I was pleasantly surprised when I received Katy’as version. While I emphasized cause-and-effect relationships and provided factual evidence in my defense, Katya’s version simply dismantled the officer's claims. As it turned out, 99% of these claims were completely illegitimate. The officer would write, "You provide these pieces of evidence, but they don't fit; give others." In my version, I would provide other evidence, and Katya would write that according to the law, these pieces of evidence are suitable, and the officer is incompetent and exceeding their authority—naturally, in very polite terms. We won the case! Thanks to Katya and her team for excellent work, achieving the desired result, and for patiently handling my avalanche of worries—this is also very valuable, especially when your fate is literally in the hands of your lawyer. PS: Payments can be split into parts. The path seems insurmountable only at the beginning. But after the first step, each subsequent one becomes more and more realistic. If someone had told me a year ago where I would be now, I wouldn't have believed it. Your inner saboteur is your enemy, and he’s lying. Just write to a lawyer and find out how things are—there's no harm in asking. I wish you good luck!

We contacted Katya Stelmakh to settle the issue regarding O1/EB1A visa to the US. Her recommendations were so clear and precise that we didn't hesitate about what choice to make after her briefing us. She has provided us with all the required information and led step by step to the desired "Approval...." The petition was approved by USCIS on the first try. Stelmakh&Associates team was of great help in this way as they drafted letters, checked and prepared needed documents and filled out all the forms. Besides, they were always open to scheduling a meeting at a convenient time for us regardless of different time zones.
