Cases

What has come across this desk

I do not publish every client's name, and some appear only by what they did. Everyone here authorised it.

Several of these cases came to me after another attorney said there was no path.

IN DEPTH

Cases in depth

The engineer whose title could not be published on the list of sensitive professions under scrutiny following September 11, 2001.

Chief water purification engineer, more than ninety patents. After September 11, the United States government retained him to protect the nation's water supply, and he began consulting with the president every two weeks.

The complication: for security reasons, his title could not be published. The strongest credential he had was the one that could not appear.

Petition was approved within one day of filing.
The case was accelerated personally by the president.

Arun Chattopadyay, now retired in India.

Two failed attempts before he got here

Vice president of the largest online learning platform in the world, responsible for fully sixty percent of all platforms launched by its company.

Prior to coming to my office he had retained a major national law firm and, irrespective of the volume of his supporting documents, the client suffered through TWO (2) lengthy and deflating attempts to secure his Classification.

After weeks of this office’s exhaustive due diligence and preparation, this office condensed and redirected the focus to the Petitioner’s strength and secured the rare “same day” approval of his petition.

The problem was excess. They had sent volume where the government looks for weight. I rebuilt the case from scratch, with the same resume that had already been denied twice.

Himanshu Koshe, Coursera.

"There are three of us in the world"

Commercial graphic designer, with a client list including Pillsbury, Ford, Fiat, Chrysler and Exxon.

Another professional had already told him the case would take three years. And he kept repeating something he considered a weakness: he did not know how to do the work on a computer.

The fifth time he mentioned it, I stopped and asked how many people in the world do that the way he does it. The answer was "there are three of us".

That was the case. No one had asked.

Ninety one days between retention and the document in hand.

Pedro Mauro Dias.
