William Bert

I first interacted with attorney Billy Bert when he was assigned to handle my I-140 NIW EB2 petition at Ellis Porter. Our communication began on January 12, 2024, when he sent me the application documents. After completing my part, I submitted my draft to him, and within a week, he reviewed it. Short...ly after, he drafted all the legal briefs. In total, my I-140 petition was finalized in just three weeks under Billy’s guidance, and it was submitted to USCIS on February 13, 2024, with regular processing. Due to a backlog in USCIS approval rates, I waited 12 months. On February 14, 2025, I decided to upgrade to premium processing. I reached out to Billy and his team, who promptly handled the payment process with USCIS without charging any extra fees. By April 7, 2025, my I-140 NIW EB2 petition was officially approved. I truly appreciate Billy for his professionalism and patience in answering all my questions during the waiting period. I also want to commend Janie Barnell, a member of his team, for her efforts throughout the process. I highly recommend Billy and his team for anyone pursuing an NIW EB2 petition.

I hired Ellis Porter to handle my EB2-NIW petition, and I’m happy to share that it was approved without any RFE—thanks to Bily and his team. Initially, I was a bit skeptical about the “no recommendation letter” approach they suggested, but I decided to trust their expertise and I’m glad I did. The... entire process moved incredibly fast, we filed just three weeks after I signed the agreement. Bily and his assistant were always prompt, consistently responding to my questions within a day. It was clear they took the time to fully understand my work and how it contributes to national interest. Their attention to detail and approach made the case strong and compelling. We opted for premium processing, and within just a few weeks, my petition was approved proving that, in my case, recommendation letters weren’t necessary. Beyond the petition itself, Bily also answered all my questions I had that weren’t directly related to the EB2-NIW process, and he was always helpful and generous with his time. If you have the chance to work with Bily, I highly recommend it. Thank you again, Bily, for your outstanding help!

I worked with Mr Bert and his support team to apply for a NIW I-140 for a clinician scientist, and the process was absolutely made to flow easily and I felt very supported. Communication was always timely and efficient, and they made the steps very clear and easy to understand. I look forward to cont...inue working with him in this process and am grateful for the wonderful work that he does. Brilliant!!

I had the pleasure of working with William Bert on my NIW application, and I couldn’t be happier with my experience. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional professionalism, responsiveness, and politeness. His dedication and expertise were evident throughout the entire process. What trul...y stood out was how quickly everything was handled. The entire process—from our initial consultation to the day my I-140 package was mailed to USCIS—took only 14 days! Even more impressive, my application was approved! While I did my best to keep up with the requirements, this timeline would not have been possible without his incredible speed and efficiency. His ability to respond promptly to my questions and provide clear guidance made a complex process feel manageable and stress-free. I want to express my sincere gratitude for William Bert's outstanding service. He is truly an expert in his field and made me feel confident every step of the way. If you are considering filing an NIW or any immigration petition, I wholeheartedly recommend William Bert. You will not be disappointed! Thank you again, William Bert, for your excellent work. You are great!
