Attorney Katie Spero successfully represented a self-employed client applying for an EB-1 extraordinary ability as an artist.

Attorney Katie Spero successfully represented a client who was awarded lawful permanent residence through a complex employment-based application. The position in this case works nationwide and has no fixed work site. A job offer of this type requires special considerations during each stage of the green card filing and can be difficult to explain properly to the Department of Labor and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services. The beneficiary has been in the U.S. for 14 years, and this green card issuance is a new phase in her career and her ability to make the U.S. her permanent home.
