The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a chief scientist and company president/ co-founder from France. His work had focused specifically on identifying the optimal conditions for the living and controlled polymerization of α-amino acid-N-carboxyanhydrides (NCA), characterizing synthetic organic polymeric compounds using non-aqueous capillary electrophoresis (NACE), and on commercializing synthetic polyamino acids for bio-applications. We successfully demonstrated that his continued employment in the field would benefit those in his field, as well as the citizens of the United States at large. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to his field, including 9 peer-reviewed journal articles (4 of them first-authored), one review article, one book chapter, five conference papers published in symposium proceedings, and two patents. His publications had been cited at least 309 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. The importance of his work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “[Client’s] research has given [client’s company] the exclusive ability to synthesize polyamino acid chain lengths to the exact specifications of their clients. That level of precision allows researchers such as myself to remove the uncertainty in our research results due to heterogeneous polymer lengths and, consequently, increases the rate of research progress.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in 6 months and 16 days.
