Approved I-140 for EB1A petition! I reached out in June 2024 and 6-7 months later my petition has been approved. I was on a F1 with STEM OPT expiring and was not selected for the last H1B lottery. I found Stelmakh through recommendations from our company’s internal immigration Slack channel, it was one of the highly rated firms. Since my situation was urgent and time sensitive, I chose Stelmakh given their reputation and they did not disappoint. Coworkers discouraged me from applying for EB1 and I should go for EB2 instead, but Katya was very confident and so I decided to trust her decisions and apply for it - otherwise I don’t think I would have. I was impressed from their intake session, the ease their portal and associates helped to prepare and gather documents, and especially with the quality of all the letters and my overall petition. I had been anxious as my EAD expiry date is approaching but now I can continue my work, career and life here.

I was introduced to Katya and her team at Stelmakh & Associates when a friend suggested I might qualify for an EB-1A application. Initially skeptical, I decided to reach out to Katya. From our very first conversation, she gave me the confidence I needed, assuring me that my profile was strong enough to apply. Katya was incredibly patient and accommodating, taking multiple calls to address all my questions and concerns. Once I started the process, her team exceeded my expectations. Their process is seamless, with regular updates on the status of the application and each stage of the process. I worked closely with Carlie for my case and what impressed me most was the teams meticulous attention to detail. They took the time to thoroughly understand my profile and work, ensuring the petition reflected my achievements in the best possible light. When I saw my final petition, I was blown away by how comprehensive and well-crafted it was—it truly highlighted my qualifications in a compelling way - All thanks to Carlie, Katya, and the rest of the team. From my initial contact with them to receiving my approval, the entire process took just three months. Their collaborative approach, dedication, and expertise were evident every step of the way. Even when I had a few last-minute updates, Carlie seamlessly integrated them into the case, ensuring it was as strong as possible. I wholeheartedly recommend Stelmakh & Associates to anyone pursuing an EB-1A. They truly go above and beyond to deliver exceptional results!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Stelmakhlaw to file my EB1A petition, and I cannot express how grateful I am for their exceptional service. Initially, I faced uncertainty and anxiety about my immigration journey, having consulted with several law firms that left me feeling overwhelmed. However, Stelmakhlaw stood out due to their clarity, confidence, and proven track record with cases similar to mine. I had learned about them during an EB1A session led by a previously approved client, which further solidified my decision to choose their firm. Once I joined their program, the onboarding process was seamless. I quickly uploaded all required documents and met with their extended team to discuss my case in detail. I appreciated their flexibility in using tools like Google Drive for communication and document sharing, which made the entire process more efficient. The team was always available for online meetings and maintained timely, clear communication throughout. Even when my assigned attorney changed, the new attorney quickly got up to speed on my case without any disruption. Katya, the founder, played a crucial role in drafting my petition. Her dedication was evident as she went above and beyond to strengthen my application, even working on Thanksgiving and responding to my queries during weekends and holidays. Her commitment made a significant difference in my experience. I was thrilled when my petition was filed during the holiday schedule and approved in less than 15 days. The professionalism and clear communication from Stelmakhlaw highlighted their commitment to their clients. Working with them was hassle-free, and securing my EB1A visa has provided me with the peace of mind and security I needed to continue my life in the U.S. I highly recommend Stelmakhlaw to anyone seeking immigration assistance.
