I really appreciate your support, professional work and perfect timing in responding my Emails. I have already recommended your group to some of my friends and will continue to do so in the future!

The client that North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com had the opportunity to work with in this case was a Postdoctoral Scientist from Iran. Her work had focused specifically on the improving the quality of care for patients with chronic diseases. We successfully demonstrated that her continued employment in the field would benefit those in her 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 her highly significant contributions to her field, including 16 peer-reviewed journal articles and numerous conference papers. Her publications had been cited at least 48 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 her work was confirmed in the following quote from an independent recommender, “Without [Client]’s continued work in the area of palliative care and spirituality in patient care much of our work to improve the whole person aspect of care in the US, will be set back substantially.” 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. Her NIW petition was approved in 9 months and 20 days.
