I decided to apply for the Legal Permanent Residence Status and I went to talk to Dr. Delaney who presented me with all the different options. I received my E1 visa in about 8 months. The entire process was very smooth and fast . Most importantly, each step was enjoyable despite the hug amount of docs. I highly recommend Dr. Delaney.

I contacted Brendan to obtain information about how to apply for a green card. He assessed the particulars of my situation, and gave me straightforward and detailed advice that I had been unable to obtain from other sources. I felt that he gave an honest appraisal of my chances for success in pursuing the different routes through the immigration process. Based on his consultation recommendation, I hired him to pursue green card application through the National Interest Waiver. He and his staff were professional and helpful in guiding me through the process of compiling the required documentation, providing detailed lists and examples to ensure that my case was as strong as it could be. He also gave me realistic estimates of the timelines, and when I became concerned that I hadn't yet heard about the status of my application at the state department, he quickly was able to give me a status update. I was successful in my application, and strongly believe that the process was as smooth as it was because of Brendan and his team. They were also very understanding of my professional schedule and obligations, allowing me to complete the steps of the process when I had time, and remotely (online and through the mail). I would highly recommend his services, especially if you are naive to the immigration process in the USA and need someone not only to facilitate the application process, but also to help you wade through the different options and find what is most likely to be successful for you.

These guys really took care of my case professionally. I'm a scientist and usually I pay a lot of attention to details but I recognize that something like an application for permanent resident status must be handled by a good specialist. After shopping around for some time for an immigration attorney, a friend of mine recommend Brendan and his team. Brendan gave me a free consultation during a meeting in Rockville, when I was still planning on applying for a green card. His clear communication and the information he gave regarding fees, documents, etc helped me to plan ahead my budget and necessary steps. Brendan and his team received and handled all recommendation letters and everything else that was needed for the application. Their attention to details was incredible and I was impressed that the recommendation for the green card (National Interest Waiver) came less than a month after the application. I also received my work authorization 3 weeks after fingerprint/biometrics, just on time to accept a good job offer. The permanent resident cards came in about 3-4 months (for all my family members). This really bet my best expectations! I referred them to a very good friend and he got the permanent resident status for him and his family faster or at least as fast as I got. Another thing that I really appreciated is that they don't have surprise fees (they have "flat" fees for each stage of application), which is a plus because the budget can be planned in advance. Just one thing that I really suggest is that if you need recommendation letters ask them in advance because it is good to give some time to people prep their letters and get them revised. Also, give yourself time to put together all documentations in an organized fashion but don't worry because even that will be done with the support of Brendan and his team.

I have been assisted by Mr Brendan Delany for many years. Six years ago, while I was struggling to get a working visa and my Ph.D mentor who was assisted by Mr Delaney previously recommended me contacting him. So I made an appointment with him and with his advice, I applied O1 visa at the time and was able to receive it soon. On my case when I decided to apply EB1-A, Mr Delaney helped me in any matter and answered any questions I had. Along the process Mr Delaney and one of the paralegals, Mr Aaron Hurlock have been proficient and competent, helping all along the way, always available by email or phone.
Even though I lived outside of US while I was applying, with their help, I got my EB1-A green card recently. My visa status has changed my life so that I can apply jobs in US now, and my professional career is advancing.
I would like to use this opportunity to express my deep gratitude to Brendan and Aaron for the excellent work they did for me. Also thanks the company like Leavy, Frank & Delaney, LLC providing the opportunity to hard-working immigrants who pursue American dreams.

I hired this firm and especially Brendan Delaney. I am extremely pleased with services they provided for my green card application and their level of professionalism. Brendan is very thorough and answer questions within a 24h period. During the initial stage of the process he provided free consults on my case. After comparing multiple law firms they seem to offer the best value and were very flexible with the terms and condition of the contract based on my specific case. Brendan was very thorough and provided detailed and specific advice. Overall the team was very reliable. My case was handled efficiently and the prospective timeline was met according to Brendan's initial estimates. Most importantly Brendan was a tremendous support between the filing of the case and receiving the green card. I highly recommend Brendan's services.

I hired Brendan Delaney to process the final stage of my green card application. Throughout the process I was confident that all of the paperwork was being done correctly, thoroughly and professionally and that the application itself was being submitted exactly as was required. Attention was paid to all details and the administrative end of it was managed really easily via an online website facility. The entire process was done quickly and smoothly and I received my card within three months of applying to that final stage.
Prior to hiring him and his firm, Brendan met me on several occasions to provide information and guidance as to the overall process, all without payment. He was extraordinarily helpful and was available as needed for additional advice along the way via email or phone as my case was quite complicated in respect of my current employer.
I highly recommend Brendan. He is hugely knowledgeable about all aspects of the visa/immigration process, he will ensure all applications are done thoroughly and efficiently. Would have no hesitation in using his services again.

I am highly recommending Brendan as a lawyer for the green card application.
I contacted more than 10 lawyers in different states for initial interviews. I decided to hire Brendan for the following 3 main reasons:
1. His availability to discuss my case. Brendan was always highly responsive either by phone or email he got back to me same or next day. It was very to work with him and his team even being thousand miles apart.
2. His flexibility. Brendan treated my case as a specific situation and not a generic case. He provided advice specific to my case regarding type of letter and advisor. He is surrounded by a team of paralegal who is as efficient as he is
3. Brendan went beyond just being available for filling my case. He provided me with continuous support (even after filling) and official documents that I was requiring before receiving my final approval. Those documents were instrumental to get approval for independent not directly related application.
My case was filed concurrently in the NIW category. After 2 months and a half I received my travel and work authorization. The approval of the I140 was received 8 months after the initial filing (within the predicted processing time by Brendan during our initial conversations). The approval of the I485 was received 2 weeks after the approval of the I140.
For all those reasons I am highly recommending Brendan as a lawyer for the green card application.

Recommended. Recently my NIW was approved and received my green card. They help me in any matter and answered any questions I had, most of the time on the same day frame. Along the process Delany Brendan and or one of the paralegals has been proficient and competent, helping all along the way, always available by email or phone. On my case when my H1B visa was about to expire they were able to expedite an EAD temporal card thus making an easy transition for my status.

I was working with Brendan for a few months. He was helping me with my immigration questions and green card application for NIW. I’ve got permission to work in the United States (EAD) in 2 months after application. Green card was approved 8 months latter. The process was pretty fast and I was really happy to have him as my lawyer.
Brendan is thorough and competent professional, he was very thoughtful and informative. I highly recommend him.

I recently received my NIW green card with the help of Leavy, Frank and Delaney. No hitches at all and I received notice that my application was successful without the need to review or submit any additional materials - something that has happened a number of people I know using other firms. I found everyone to be very competent whether I was dealing directly with one of the lawyers (Brendan Delaney in my case) or one of their paralegals. Recommended.

Highly recommended!
They've helped me to apply for NIW and get it (2015). Typically, the NIW process (I-140 and I-485 forms) is an extremely time consuming and exhausting process with too much of details you need to consider. Throughout this process, Brendan Delaney and his staff have been extremely professional, helpful and always available in responding questions or giving advice. Even after the contract, they've been available to answer questions. I highly recommend their firm and am sure they'll provide the same quality of service to their other clients.
