A Technology Founder

Our firm was retained by the founder and chief executive of a user-experience research company to prepare an EB-1A self-petition. We obtained an approval without a Request for Evidence

‍

A record was voluminous but we were able to identify the strongest evidence and proved its significance to the officer. We proved the significance of the client’s company’s partnerships, ratings, investments and grants in their home market which USCIS is not familiar with. For example, we showed that the grant program approves roughly ten percent of applicants and traced each grant to a specific patented component of the platform. We established the selectivity of his professional association memberships, the readership and industry standing of every publication that carried his work, and the scope of his service as a judge of an awards program. We prepared seven testimonial letters from senior practitioners at the client’s field, past clients and collaborators, and we introduced each expert's credentials.

The completed filing satisfied six regulatory criteria and was supported by ten exhibit groups documenting every statement in the support letter. The result — an approved EB-1A petition and a client now bringing his platform to the U.S. market.
