Success Stories: EB1A Approval for a Postdoctoral Research Assistant in the field of Medicinal Chemistry in 7 months
Client’s Testimonial:
I would strongly recommend Chen Immigration, frankly speaking I did not talk to any other lawyer before, just two of my friends told about Chen and I went through and what a smooth experience it has been right from drafting of high quality recommendation letters to petition letter. She did everything so professionally and promptly that I could not think any better. Once again I strongly recommend Chen Immigration Law Associates.

His work had resulted in at least 14 peer-reviewed scientific articles in internationally acclaimed journals and 1 conference proceeding. At the time that his case was filed, his publications had accumulated at least 213 citations, clearly demonstrating that he had influenced his field and garnered international acclaim. In addition, he had had applied his considerable expertise in medicinal chemistry and organic chemistry as a reviewer of 11 manuscripts for publication. Of his accomplishments, one of his independent recommenders remarked, “. . . [Client] is one of the more impressive scientists working in his field today. The breadth of his work is truly exceptional and I never fail to be impressed by the attention paid to details in his work.” It was our goal to prove that our client qualified for classification as an Alien of Extraordinary Ability given that he sought to remain in the United States to continue work in the area of medicinal chemistry, and that his continued research would substantially and prospectively benefit the United States. With the proof and documentation that we provided, his case was approved in 7 months.
