I would highly recommend Mark for the services for the Green card and other valuable services. Mark is very knowledgeable in every aspects of immigration, and detailed. He is always approachable and you can call him anytime. Mark always there with you and answer your phone calls/emails. I would definitely recommend him if you are in need of any immigration services and hire again if I need any services further.

Mark Ashley provided continuous support in my I-485 approval under EB 1A category. His constructive feedback provided direction to move forward. He was quick in responding to my questions. His expertise and attention to detail are commendable. I would highly recommend him for his valuable services. Overall, very satisfied with my case and how he handled from the beginning to end.

It is with my pleasure to share my experience with Mark Ashley, who handled my NIW/I-485 based application. I am from Nepal and am a research based scientist in the field of gastroenterology who had arrived in the United States right after my PhD. After one and half year as a postdoc I decided to apply permanent residency. Luckily I came across Mark Ashley who, as a lawyer, had just helped one of my colleagues. It took less than two years to get the whole process approved including the possession of green card. Anyone who are postdocs with J1 visa can understand the stress of this whole dilemma (from being totally naïve of many questions as how, where, when and whom to ask and how long will it take so that one knows s/he has enough time). Under such a cloudy situation, Mark was very approachable, patience to understand what my doubts were and giving advice just right. Despite the fact that I have not met him in person to this day, I can tell this confidently that he is very attentive and experienced in handling cases like mine. Overall, I can tell that lawyer Mark Ashley is definitely the perfect person who gives genuine suggestions and would recommend him if you are looking to exploit his expertise.

Great experience. A work friend recommended Mr. Mark Ashley. I hired him for a NIW and I-485 and got my green card in less than 2 years. When I hired him, he promised to treat my case as if it was his own. He was always available by phone or email and did a great job for me and my family. He was friendly and approachable. He worked hard and was very helpful. I now recommend his services to my friends and colleagues. Thanks Mr. Ashley

I can consider my lawyer mr Mark Ashely an very experienced, knowledgeable lawyer and always wins case for the national interest waiver (NIW) application. When I first reach him for his services, he asked about my publication, citations, and other contributions I made in my field. What I notice is that he got the right judgement to tell you whether your case has better chance to be approved. During my application, I was still at school and doing my PhD in water resource management in Texas A&M University and got past publications in journals. So he was optimist about my profile, and then we got into work. We have gone through lots of paper, what I can tell you is he is very quick in responding to your email and getting this done. More importantly, his delivers quality work which makes your case very strong. I felt confidence. He charges very reasonably so you get the best value for your money. I recommend Mr Mark Ashley wholeheartedly. Simply he is the best.

I hired Mark for my NIW EB2 visa processing. Mark showed serious lack of professionalism and efficiency. I ultimately lost the case, which could be due to my lack of publications, but was due to Mark's inability to handle the case. In the final denial letter USCIS specifically stated that the petitioner has failed to submit documents as requested. It was obviously the lawyer’s responsibility to read the RFE and submit documents. Mark made me produce total 10 letters for my NIW, 7 for original submission and 3 for RFE. He total spent 5 minutes of time for each letters. I wrote ALL the letters, and Mark barely taken a look at those and said “They are great” every time. When submitting the petition, Mark made me print out the letters and send those to him by mail because he ‘Does not have facility to print such a large scale!!!!’. Seriously, no joking, a lawyer is telling he cannot afford to print some documents. Overall, I am sure Mark worked no more than 3/4 hours for my case as he did nothing other than writing the 4 page cover letter. I came up with all the names for my referees, wrote all the letters, made contacts with referees, get the letters, printed and mailed those out to Mark. I have known another friend of mine who got NIW visa and his lawyer basically did all the work for him. Please do not be fooled by his cheap rate and waste your money like me. Get someone better and more knowledgeable. Mark will explain to you that your case is an obvious win and then it may be denied.

Mark Ashley is very helpful and friendly. A perfect immigration attorney for the internationals who are seeking approval of their I-140, and I-485 application. Mark guided me excellently along the process of my green card which I receive in 10 months. Mark's guidance on writing recommendation letter was tremendous, and this is very important for the internationals like me. Mark understand our sentiments very well and acts accordingly. Probably that's why I received my card relatively quicker. He is available on phone almost all the time. I even talked with him in weekend. He never took long time to review various letter that I prepared. Moreover his fee is less compared to other immigration lawyers. I already recommended Mark to my friends who started taking him as immigration lawyer for their applications. Without any reservation, I recommend Mark to my fellow international students and scholars in USA, who want to get their green card.
