Case Summary:

In this case, the client that we had the opportunity to work with was a research associate from China in the field of liquid crystal physics. Our client’s specialized research has focused on the discovery and characterization of liquid crystal structures and phases. His work had resulted in 24 peer-reviewed scientific articles and numerous presentations at national and international conferences; at the time that his case was filed, his publications had been cited at least 310 times by independent and leading researchers from prestigious institutions and organizations around the world, indicating the major significance of his work.  He had also reviewed 31 manuscripts for distinctive, internationally-circulated journals.  His superior level of expertise was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “He is sincerely a pioneer in the field of liquid crystal and soft matter physics, and his work is regularly conducted at a level that places him among the world’s elite researchers.” 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 liquid crystal physics, 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 27 days.
