I'm extremely thankful to Katya Stelmakh and her outstanding team at Stelmakh Law for their professional guidance and support in preparing and filing my O-1 talent visa petition. Katya developed a clear and effective strategy from day one, immediately putting my mind at ease and instilling confidence... in a positive outcome. Her expertise and attentive approach made all the difference—and my case was successfully approved! I highly recommend Katya Stelmakh to anyone seeking a reliable and results-oriented immigration attorney.

am delighted to share that my EB1A petition has been approved. Many thanks to Katya and the entire team. Sanjana deserves special recognition for her hard work and attention to detail in compiling the petition and accompanying documentation. Thank you to Vanessa, Darya, and Jhanier for the support. ...Finally, Katya, thank you for making recommendations and structuring everything. Your suggestions and guidance are really useful and insightful. I would not be here without your constant support. The team helped me present my work in product strategy, analytics, and healthcare data transformation clearly and compellingly. I especially appreciated the thoughtful approach to highlight my leadership, publications, and broader impact in the field. The process was methodical, and the support throughout made a real difference. If you are considering filing an EB1A petition, I highly recommend Stelmakh & Associates

When I first started exploring the EB-1A process, I wasn’t sure how to frame my work in mortgage market analytics into something that would meet the immigration criteria. My cousin recommended Stelmakh & Associates, and I’m so glad I followed through. Katya and Maddalena took the time to understan...d what I’ve done professionally and how to translate it into a petition that aligned with USCIS expectations. They helped present my leadership role, original modeling work, judging contributions, and media features (like coverage in The Washington Post) in a way that clearly showed the impact and significance of my work. The process was thorough and involved a lot of back-and-forth, but they knew where to provide additional evidence to strengthen my case. In April 2025, my EB-1A petition was approved. That moment brought an enormous sense of relief and validation. I’m grateful to the team for guiding me through something that would have been impossible to manage independently. I will highly recommend Stelmakh & Associates.

Katya and her team were a lifesaver. When I first came to their firm, I was overwhelmed and anxious about my H1B timelines, confusing paperwork, and a lot at stake. I chose Katya because she came highly recommended for her clarity and responsiveness, and I can confidently say she exceeded all expecta...tions. She not only walked me through every step with patience, but also handled my case with incredible speed and precision. What could’ve been a stressful experience turned into a smooth, well-guided process. Thanks to her, I’m now able to continue my career in the U.S. without uncertainty hanging over me. I’m truly grateful.

A friend who had a great experience referred us to Stelmakh & Associates, and now we can say we’re glad we took that recommendation. From the first consultation, it was clear that Katya and her team understood the EB-1A process in depth. They saw the potential in my professional background and helped... us structure a strong case around my engineering leadership, startup work, scholarly publications, and judging experience. Even though I met all eight criteria, we received a very generic RFE in January – one of those “blank RFEs” that can shake your confidence. But the team didn’t lose focus. They revisited every section, gathered additional context, and gathered new letters and peer reviews to strengthen the petition. Their ability to respond calmly and thoroughly made a huge difference. Ultimately, the petition was approved, and my wife and I are incredibly grateful for that outcome. We’re thankful for the persistence, care, and experience that Katya and her team provided. If you're considering the EB-1A path, I encourage you to talk to them.
