New NIW Successful Stories (30)

Dr. Lee

Having acquired a formidable set of skills and experience along with a Ph.D in chemical engineering from a highly ranked technical institute in Georgia to complement her M.S. and B.S. from a top Chinese university, Dr. Lee has long been a leader in her field of study. While completing her doctorate, she researched membrane separation, a field of study crucial for endeavors ranging from environmental policy to medicine to the oil and gas industry.

Dr. Lee retained Z&A in 2006 for help with her NIW application. Our competent legal team brought their well-honed skills to bear on the case, concentrating the USCIS official’s attention on her numerous awards and prizes given in recognition of Dr. Lee’s outstanding research.

This strategy worked to perfection, as Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted March 17, 2006, and approved less than 3 months later.

Dr. Lee earned his Ph.D in synthetic and organic chemistry from a prestigious school in Western Europe, focusing his research on chiral organic molecules for evaluation as drug candidates. Currently, Dr. Lee develops chemosensors and nanosensors for the detection of marine toxins for private industry.

When searching for the best legal aid available for help with his NIW petition, Dr. Lee chose Z&A for its combination of quality service and compassion. Quickly and efficiently compiling his documents and working side by side to ensure the best possible job, our attorneys diligently created a very persuasive case for Dr. Lee that focused on his three important patents related to his field and the implications for the US fishing industry his work has. Buttressed by several independent advisory opinions, Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted on May 1, 2006.

Less than 2 months later, in July 2006, Dr. Lee received notification that his NIW petition was approved.

Expert in the advanced field of communications and signal processing, a subcategory of electrical engineering (in which he earned a Ph.D from the most prestigious university in China), Dr. Lee has long been a leader. His more than 10 years of research for institutions from elite universities to private companies has largely focused on the blind identification and equalization of linear systems, and has led directly to the enhancement of communications receiver techniques.

For help with his NIW petition, Dr. Lee decided on Z&A, a firm that could match his expertise with our own legal skill. Constructing an enormously powerful argument that stressed the ramifications of his work for the national wireless industry in developing their next generation of technology and that highlighted Dr. Lee’s over 25 publications, our lawyers felt confident that we would succeed.

Dr. Lee’s application was submitted on May 13, 2004, and approved shortly thereafter.

In post-9/11 America, national security concerns and a somewhat-weakened economy have precluded the success of many potential NIW candidates. The USCIS has responded to the current political climate by tightening nearly all employment-based categories – in some cases, they simply deny NIW applications without recourse to their own protocol of sending a request for evidence (RFE). When they do send the RFE, however, it takes experienced legal aid to overcome the predilections and obstinacy of certain officials.

Dr. Lee is an advanced degree professional by virtue of his Ph.D in virology and bacteriology he earned from an elite school on the US West Coast. His research concerns epidemiology at both the state and national levels, especially concerning pneumonia. Dr. Lee, a native of India, has also enjoyed phenomenal success on the conference circuit, being invited to over 30 professional gatherings as a keynote speaker.

Needing professional legal aid to help his with her NIW petition, Dr. Lee chose Z&A. The flexible but tough-minded legal team helped him polish and refine his achievements and accomplishments in a way that would be most likely to sway the opinions of the USCIS. Because the RFE had dismissed the original letters of support as being entirely from Dr. Lee’s circle of acquaintances, we procured 5 more independent advisory opinions to bolster his case.

Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted on May 12, 2006, and approved in late June of the same year, an amazing response time.

Having obtained both Ph.D and M.S. degrees in environmental engineering and a bachelor’s degree in economic geography and urban/rural district planning, Dr. Lee is a multi-degreed scientist with extensive experience in land surface modeling and climate studies. Her research has focused on two new parameterizations for use with land surface models, which she developed on her own, and which are essential to furthering the study of climate and hydrology.

Dr. Lee approached Z&A in March of 2006 for our competent assistance in filing an NIW petition. Our team intelligently and quickly assembled evidence in support of Dr. Lee’s case, including numerous awards from around the world and the over 15 written requests for articles or advice from colleagues.

With our helpful and experienced aid, Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted on March 16, 2006, and approved 3 months later.

Dr. Lee earned his Ph.D at one of the best universities in the Korea while performing pioneering research in pulmonary and critical care medicine, which has a large number of applications that are critical to the healthcare industry in the US. Before coming to the US, he performed groundbreaking postdoctoral work for our neighbors to the north, leading to an award of merit and a fellowship with the Medical Research Council of Canada.

Dr. Lee retained Z&A in April of 2006 for our competent assistance in filing his NIW petition. Our experienced team assembled letters of support, including several independent advisory opinions, from across the country attesting to Dr. Lee’s monumental impact. Next, we compiled the over 30 publications and talks at major conferences he has to his credit, and made special note of his awards from Canada.

With our aid in persuading USCIS officials, Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted on April 26, 2006, and approved in July 2006.

Dr. Lee

Although most of our clients come to us with impressive credentials and long lists of achievements that are of great use in persuading USCIS officials, there are a few who, like Dr. Lee, do not. Indeed, he had only 3 publications and 2 conference talks to his credit when he decided to apply for his NIW, so he knew he needed experienced and competent attorneys to help his case.

Dr. Lee chose to retain Z&A in January 2006 for assistance in filing his NIW petition. Our legal team, noting the immense difficulties of Dr. Lee’s case, chose to direct the USCIS official’s attention to the outstanding letters of support we were able to collect. Having done this, we also argued persuasively that Dr. Lee’s incredible academic credentials, including his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D degrees in electrical engineering from a highly prestigious Texas university, along with the implications of his research in infrared photodetector design and development for military and civilian industrial uses, met the standards of the NIW.

With our help and powerful arguments, Dr. Lee’s NIW petition was submitted on February 1, 2006, and approved during the summer of 2006.
