Expert guidance and successful EB-2 NIW — highly recommended!

I worked with Aizhan Yerezhepova on my EB-2 NIW case and couldn’t be happier with the result. From the first consultation, she carefully reviewed my qualifications and experience, clearly explained the process, outlined what evidence was needed, and set realistic expectations. She and her team pre...pared my petition with great attention to detail — from the recommendation letters to the personal statement — and effectively highlighted the national importance of my work. Communication was always prompt and professional. I felt supported and informed at every step, and all my questions were answered quickly and clearly. Thanks to their hard work and experience, my EB-2 NIW petition and I-485 were approved smoothly without an interview which speaks volumes about the quality of their preparation. I highly recommend Aizhan to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, strategic, and trustworthy immigration attorney. Whether you’re just exploring your options or ready to file, she will help you build a strategy that fits your specific background and goals.

Change of Status – B2 to F1

I turned to Baltabek Law to assist me with a Change of Status from B2 to F1, and I cannot thank Attorney Aya enough for her dedication. She took the time to understand my academic goals and helped present a case that was both strategic and thorough. Despite the risks involved in such a transition, my... application was approved. Aya’s deep knowledge and commitment truly set her apart."

Wasting time and money

Contacted the lawyer with immigration case, paid for the first consultation with zero outcomes. Then decided accept the risk, sign a contract with this lawyer and move forward. Contract is absolutely unclear, requesting to pay $7,500 at the beginning, so I tried to specify couple details in this cont...ract and got something like that - "you need to pay for another consultation to get answers for your questions", despite questions were purely about the contract statements. Anyways, I found another lawyer on Avvo with free consultation, and she said that in accordance with that contract no guarantee of the positive results and all she does is filling the petition. Not recommended at all. Contract signed with another lawyer, who provided consultation for free, answered all my questions and disclosed all contract statements.

Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry the experience didn’t meet your expectations. The initial consultation is meant for legal evaluation, and the fee is fully credited toward the retainer if you choose to proceed. The quoted fee reflects the strategic complexity of EB-2 NIW cases, and the contract outlines this in detail. Importantly, no attorney can ethically or legally guarantee the outcome of a petition—in fact, doing so could place their license at risk. That’s not a flaw in the contract; it’s a mark of honest, compliant representation.

EB-1A Approval – Extraordinary Ability

I had the pleasure of working with Attorney Aya at Baltabek Law on my EB-1A petition, and the experience was nothing short of outstanding. From our initial consultation, Aya exhibited deep legal knowledge and a clear strategy tailored to my field of work in biomedical engineering. Her team crafted a ...meticulous petition that convincingly articulated my qualifications. Thanks to her precision and commitment, my case was approved without an RFE. I highly recommend Baltabek Law to any professional seeking extraordinary ability recognition

An exceptional and truly outstanding lawyer

I know how stressful and uncertain it can be to find or stumble upon a good and professional lawyer. I’d like to share my experience in case it helps someone who’s currently in the same situation I was in some time ago. I came to Aya through a friend’s recommendation, and that immediately built my... trust in her. Despite her extensive knowledge of immigration law and all its nuances, what really stood out to ME was learning about Aya’s own immigration journey. It was a clear sign that I was working with someone who not only knows the law, but deeply understands the process from personal experience. During our initial consultation, she evaluated whether my case would be eligible for the EB-1, since I am an Indian classical dancer (a very specific and rare category), and given my background, we filed four petitions simultaneously: the I-140, I-485, EAD, and Advance Parole. My I-140 was approved within six months, and the I-485 was approved a few months later. In the meantime, Aya ensured that I could both work and travel by applying for the advance parole and work permit. I had no idea that this was even an option during the waiting period. If Aya hadn’t done that for me, I wouldn’t have been able to work in the U.S. or travel, especially since green card cases can take a long time to process. It was truly a game charger for me, since I had no financial support. As for my EB-1 case - it was a massive talent petition that her team put together with great care and precision. It included nearly 1,000 pages, and it takes an incredible amount of hard work to make a case of that scale both compelling and cohesive. Aya’s team was incredibly fast and professional. They submitted every required document, including my medical exam results to USCIS on time, without any delays or complications. They also kept me fully informed by sharing scans of each approval and every notice from USCIS. I’m just beyond thankful to Aya and her team for handling the entire process with such professionalism and for just getting it DONE. If you’re looking for an expert who is highly qualified and truly knows her craft, I can’t recommend her enough. Thank you Aya!
